During pregnancy, most women feel a lot of things they’ve never felt before. Changing hormones leads to unexpected mood swings, the growing belly causes round ligament pain and the baby’s first kicks feel like fluttering butterflies in your stomach. And then, of course, there’s the near-constant nausea. The vomiting and queasiness of morning sickness can last all day — and sometimes even all nine months.
Lone Star IV Medics wants you to feel as comfortable as possible while you await your little bundle of joy. That’s why we offer safe IV fluids for pregnancy that help alleviate your morning sickness.
Alleviate Morning Sickness and Dehydration With IV Fluids
Women who experience morning sickness during pregnancy are usually most affected in the first trimester. While the exact cause of morning sickness remains a mystery, possible contributors include low blood sugar, high levels of hormones, fatigue and stress.
Regardless of the root cause, morning sickness often results in depleted nutrients and dehydration. Our healthcare providers can help relieve your morning sickness with IV therapy for pregnancy. We administer safe IV fluids to help women with morning sickness feel better and stay healthy. Our treatments deliver hydration, vitamins and minerals to nourish you and your baby.
Our IV Packages for Pregnant Women and New Mothers
Getting IV fluids during pregnancy can help you say goodbye to that awful, nauseated feeling you’ve had for months. Many of our IV hydration therapy packages are particularly beneficial for new and expecting mothers, including:
- The Myers' Cocktail: This is our most popular IV package for mothers and expecting mothers experiencing morning sickness. Its beneficial ingredients include normal saline, B complex, vitamin B12, vitamin C, glutathione, zinc and magnesium.
- The Ultimate Myers' Cocktail: This is our premium package. It is antioxidant-rich and can increase energy and support overall wellness. This infusion contains the same ingredients as the Myers' Cocktail but with higher doses for enhanced effects, including 5000mg of vitamin C and 1000mg of glutathione.
- The Purely Saline Package: If you're looking for pure hydration with nothing else, this package is for you. IV fluids for morning sickness and pregnancy can be a supportive addition to oral hydration because pregnant women require more fluids than nonpregnant, nonlactating women.
- IV vitamins and add-ins: Every woman's IV needs are different. We can customize our packages onsite with extra IV vitamins and add-ins to help alleviate your symptoms and reach your health goals.
IV Therapy for Vitamin Deficiency
IV treatment hydrates your body with saline solution and optional vitamins and add-ins to support your unique condition and general well-being. Fluids are critical during pregnancy because the placenta is largely composed of water. If a mother is dehydrated, it may hinder the placenta's capacity to deliver nutrients to the baby. IV therapy can replenish the nutrients your system may be lacking. Many nutrients are essential for development, and a vitamin deficiency during pregnancy can increase the risk of complications such as:
- Neural tube defects
- Pre-eclampsia
- Reduced brain development
You can ensure you have enough vitamins in your system by eating healthily, drinking enough water, and using IV therapy during pregnancy to keep your vitamins at the right level for you and your baby.
Vitamins for Fertility, Pregnancy and Postpartum Health
Whether you are trying to conceive, are already pregnant or nursing an infant, vitamins and minerals play an integral part in the health of both mother and baby. There are many benefits to the ingredients of our infusions, such as:
- Vitamin B12: Pregnant women often face iron deficiencies, and vitamin B12 supports iron absorption, making it a beneficial supplement before and after giving birth. It also helps fetal development and can reduce tiredness.
- Vitamin C: Vitamin C supports the immune system. It also aids iron absorption and healing and is often recommended to support women during and after pregnancy.
- B Complex: Our B Complex contains B1, B2, B3, B5 and B6, and can help improve energy levels. B6 is commonly used to help with pregnancy hyperemesis gravidarum, a severe and persistent form of nausea and vomiting during pregnancy that goes beyond typical morning sickness.
- Zinc: This mineral plays an important role in fetal development and can support a woman's body after giving birth and when breastfeeding.
- Magnesium: This mineral is particularly good for muscles and can help alleviate ailments associated with pregnancy, like constipation and muscle cramps.
