Breathing Exercise Group

A total of 1 times day diaphragmatic breathing exercise will be made on 3 consecutive days (5 minutes diaphragmatic breathing exercise, 5 minutes relaxation exercise). Diaphragmatic breathing exercises will be performed at least 4 hours after the use of antiemetic drugs in the service. 20 minutes from the diaphragmatic breathing exercise application. Afterward, post-test data will be obtained using the Nausea-Vomiting Severity Evaluation Test During Pregnancy and Pregnancy-Related Anxiety scales. A total of 6 measurements will be made using the scales on the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd days.
