"Morning sickness"

…very seldom begins in the second trimester, although it may persist into or through it.
So, either
a) Alice previously put it down to drunk spewing, which seems improbable - she was in reasonable drinking training, after all;
b) she has picked up norovirus or food poisoning, to lead to tragic loss of not-really-wanted baby and a massive cop-out;
or c) the SWs are a bit clueless about pregnancy.

That is cheating! You may only pick one. Or posit your own explanation.

Maybe it’s withdrawal symptoms from the booze.

Highly unlikely. Not a serious enough drinker before - serial bingeing, but not years of hard graft on the hard stuff - and the timing is wrong. Unless they want us to think she has been upchucking more or less since she was released from hospital and just not mentioned it (also, she’d have stopped by now, or gone on to worser things).
It could of course be tbtb being clueless about withdrawal (see also ‘pregnancy’)…

Well, yes, that was my thought. Alcohol is after all Bad (except for People Like Us).

Or maybe her intestines are just making a bid for freedom, which would be entirely understandable.

You could have just left it at that, both times
