Why do I need vitamin B6?
Vitamin B6 plays a vital role in the multiplication
of all cells and is therefore of critical importance
to a healthy pregnancy. It is vital to your fetus'
developing brain and nervous system. Vitamin B6
has also been used since the 1940s to ease morning
sickness. Studies suggest that the vitamin may
relieve nausea for some women during pregnancy,
though no one knows for sure how it works.
Why am I only allowed a certain
number of
B-natal TheraPops per day?
While vitamin B6, the active ingredient in B-natal,
is a vitamin, your body only needs a certain amount
per day. We recommend that you not exceed 75 mg
per day. With the vitamin B6 in your prenatal
vitamin, and two B-natal a day, you are still
under the 75 mg limit.
Can I use B-natal throughout
my pregnancy?
Yes, as long as your doctor says it's okay.
How fast will I get relief from
TheraPops?
That depends on the person. Some women will feel
relief immediately, while others may need to use
them a few times.
Morning sickness
is a universally experienced aspect of pregnancy,
having no historical or cultural bounds.
* At least 66-80% of women experience some nausea,
and 50% emesis (severe nausea and vomiting) in
the first trimester.
* Nausea and vomiting typically lasts 35 days.
* 80% of women have nausea that lasts all day.
* Nausea and vomiting typically begin during the
4th to 8th week of gestation and last through
the 14th to the 16th week.
* 50% of women feel relief by the 14th week and
90% by week 22.
* Incidence of nausea and vomiting tends to be
inversely associated with the woman's age.
