It is important: that she get in nutrients. The good news is that baby will continue to receive nutrients. This can be a common problem during pregnancy and should be discussed with her obstetrician.

See the doctor : Has she told her obstetrician or midwife? Morning sickness, which is actually often all day sickness, can be pretty severe at times. If she can't even keep adequate fluids down , she will need IV fluids.
