Nausea During Pregnancy Remedies

My pregnant granddaughter-in-law told me that Vitamin B 6 helped her with her nausea.
A few days ago I read in the Daily News that a pregnant woman in Toronto gets against her nausea a combination of antihistamine, Vitamin B6, and two other medications.
I really wonder whether I would chose that approach. Nobody knows what the effects on the later life of the baby are. As a pregnant mother I would always try the Vitamin B 6 alone for a while.

Vitamin B-6 is an important component of our nutrition. It is primarily involved in protein metabolism, and to a lesser degree, in carbohydrate and fat metabolism. It plays a role in a wide variety of metabolic reactions and is recommended to improve the functioning of the mood and nervous system,increase immunity, decrease inflammation, arthritis relief, brain function and also help with nausea among others.
Vitamin B-6 is found in meat, poultry, fish, eggs, whole grains, legumes (bean and peas), potatoes, yeast, bananas, corn, cabbage, yams, prunes, watermelon, and avocado.

Because it is a water soluble vitamin one needs to have a regular daily intake.

Practicing JinShinDo Acupressure I was excited to find in www.pubmed.gov the results of a comparison between Vitamin B 6 and Acupressure.

PS.: There are two Axupressure points that are really effective against nausea.
