I have heard such conflicting advice that I've been avoiding herbal tea altogether!

Not sure if I can get all of the ingredients here, but your recipe sounds like it's worth a try!

Oh, and I add wheat germ to things sometimes, when I think of it.

2012-02-21T09:32:44.422-05:00

All I can say is that I couldn't cook anything from about 8-18 wks pregnant because of nausea, so I'm quite impressed with your efforts to keep your family well-nourished! I hope that I will keep learning more tips and tricks as I go.

We've been eating lentils lately, as well as boiled buckwheat (as a savory dish, not sweet). Then we switch up the veggies to go with it, and sometimes meat.

One of my favorite dishes is a potato-mushroom skillet.

My father-in-law makes his own sauerkraut. I love eating some fresh out of the jar. It helps with nausea and even soothes heartburn!

We were also given some frozen handpicked berries, and I used them to make homemade juice (can sweeten as much or little as desired) and jam.

Bummer! I hope the all-day sickness ends soon. Y...
