Brief Answer:
Glycerin can help.

Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for posting your query.
Nausea and vomiting during early pregnancy is a normal finding. This happens due to the hormonal changes that occur in the body.
Regarding the coconut that is stuck in her throat she can swallow some water or honey to allow it to settle down. The raw sensation that she is feeling can be relieved with glycerine.
She can also get some medicines like Doxylamine prescribed by her gynaecologist to relieve the nausea and vomiting.
I hope this answers your query.
In case you have additional questions or doubts, you can forward them to me, and I shall be glad to help you out.
Wishing you good health.
Regards.
Dr. Rakhi Tayal.
