Try not to undereat or overeat. Ginger and ginger ale is helpful. Try not to eat and drink at the same time. I found that sucking on lemon drops and hard candy was helpful. Also if the smell of something makes you nauseous don't try to eat it. I couldn't eat poultry my whole pregnancy! The doctor won't give you meds unless you have hyperesmis gravidum where you are so sick you are losing weight and not gaining at all. I wouldn't drink peppermint tea as mint can cause reflux which you're already prone to pregnant, chamomile would be a safer choice.
