I've been feeling really wonderful over the past few weeks. Oh, sure, there's been some nausea, but, hey, I've been waiting for this for so long that I figured I'd never feel truly awful.
Until today.
Well, yesterday, actually. I came home feeling unusually nauseous. I fell asleep at about 8 p.m. and awoke around 11, only to discover that I would be awakened every hour by my nausea.
So, I did what I'd hoped I wouldn't have to do a single time during this pregnancy--I called in sick today. (I was afraid I wouldn't make it to work without throwing up on the 101 freeway.) After eating some crackers and some yogurt, I found myself clutching the toilet for dear life. The nausea is a little better now, although I am still very uncomfortable.
It's amazing how something so wonderful can make you feel so truly horrible!

Poor thing! I'm sorry you're not feeling well. That is a terrible feeling. But at least you know that as long as you feel sick things are good... kinda weird. I heard once that the more morning sick you get the healthier the baby is. It was on some news show so I feel like it was a credible source... Hope you feel better soon.
Saltines and 7-Up, before you get out of bed, are a big help. Not much of either are needed, but they are needed together. Bubble and sugar still in the 7-Up.
As I tend to read this in the wee hours of the morning with Siena in one arm, I tend to lurk and not post any comments. But not today!! Having talked to you, I know you feel better and hope that has continued! As you know, it's all worth it and it will feel so strange in 7 months when your body is once again yours! By the way, I totally agree with your John/Yoko post. The glory of the mp3 player, Double Fantasy exists on mine without Yoko songs!! Love you!!!
