Hey, don't stress too much, it's really common in pregnancy! After puking at night, just go for super bland stuff. Maybe a few sips of water or a small piece of plain toast. Keep some biscuits by your bed, they sometimes help if you eat them before getting up. It'll pass, promise!
I can only share what helped me during my pregnancy when I had terrible night vomiting. I found that very cold sips of water or small pieces of ice, and plain salted biscuits were the only things I could tolerate. Everyone is different, so it's about finding what works for your body without forcing anything.
Please, if the vomiting is severe or consistent, don't just brush it off as 'normal pregnancy stuff.' My wife had similar issues and we delayed talking to the doctor, which made things harder. Hydrate first with ORS. Then, if you're not getting relief, contact your doctor right away. Better safe than sorry.
Pregnancy vomiting can be very specific to each woman. Instead of relying on general internet advice, you should definitely have a detailed chat with your gynaecologist. They know your health history and can provide the safest and most effective dietary recommendations for you and your baby.
After a night of pregnancy vomiting, your body needs to recover. Electrolytes are likely low, so ORS is vital. For actual food, think simple carbohydrates and lean protein if you can handle it. Plain boiled rice or a few digestive biscuits. Focus on energy and hydration, not fancy meals right now.
Pregnancy vomiting at night is exhausting. Rehydration is key before even thinking about solids. Try small sips of water or ORS. For food, think easily digestible carbs like plain crackers or a banana. Gentle movement during the day, if approved by your doc, might also help with overall digestion.

I literally just went through this! It was awful. My doctor advised keeping plain crackers by the bed and eating a few even before getting up. During the day, small portions of plain rice, dal, and boiled veggies. And sips of cold lemonade or ginger ale. It's tough, but you'll get through it!
Being pregnant is already a lot, and then this! If you have any other conditions like PCOS, you need to be extra mindful. After night vomiting, just stick to basic, bland stuff like plain toast or a small apple. Don't push yourself to eat much, just focus on keeping fluids down. And always discuss these symptoms with your gynaecologist.
