I forgot to tell you that when I've tried ginger in the past it hasn't worked. The morning sickness I've gotten is so severe that what helps a lot of women just doesn't even come close with me. I also have a clotting disorder that was recommended I not take too much ginger. I am taking some ginger this time though, so maybe it's working together with the other herbs to give me a little break. In that past when I've taken it, I've just thrown it back up. Sigh...
