Ok the problem is my husband and I want to have a baby in like 5 years but the problem is I am so scared of getting morning sickness cuz I have an eating disorder and I dont want that to affect my baby and I dont know what to do are there any medicines or anything that can help the morning sickness or even prevent it I know that some women dont have it... My mom had horrible morning sickness with me to the point she was in and out of the hospital 2 or 3 times a week my cousin had little morning sickness... Is morning sickness inherited from the mother?

I'm not certain, but I don't believe morning sickness is inherited from the mother. My sister had morning sickness while I did not.

Often a person will stress themselves about being sick to the point they make it true. You mind is very powerful and if you believe a thing will happen to you it generally will.
Try to relax about it a bit. Even if you do get morning sickness, it generally doesn't last through the entire pregnancy and there are a few things you can do to reduce any nausea you may feel.
