I forgot how uncomfortable "morning sickness" can be. So far nothing has helped in the long term. I can eat, however five minutes later I feel sick again. All day! I just want to sleep through it all. That's not gonna happen with Danny demanding attention and I have work for the next two days.
I am lucky in that I am not actually vomiting. However I feel like it constantly. I learned from my first pregnancy that forcing myself to hug the toilet doesn't work. The nausea will not go away.
I don't remember this much suffering last time but that maybe nature pulling the wool over my eyes so I make more babies. "Only remember the good things..." Like the little kicks. The ultrasound pictures. The excitement!
I asked Aaron to bring me home some butterscotch hard candies when he's done work today. I also told him that if he forgets he will be sent out again to get them. They maybe my only saving grace to get me through work and life for at least the next 6 weeks.
I have tried :
-eating saltines before getting out of bed - that made me feel worse.
-drinking water - as long as the water is cold and I keep it in my mouth I feel fine. Once I swallow, blah again.
-eating anything - once I'm done I'm sick again
-camomile tea - I can't even look at it now
If anyone has some suggestions that I might not have tried I would be happy to hear them. Until then I will try to see if Danny will let me veg on the couch and not get himself into too much trouble.

tonic water.
Trust me, I'm a pro at morning sickness.
I will try that. I had followed a websites suggestion of gingerale, but the sweetness is a turn off. Tonic water is now on the shopping list. Thanks
