I haven't blogged much lately because I have been suffering from morning sickness or all day sickness. Yuck, yuck, yuck! It has been pretty terrible. I haven't thrown up, but I think I would feel better if I could! The constant nausea is torture. I have tried many things to try to help it (sprite, crackers, Vitamin B6), nothing seems to help. Getting anything down my throat has been the most difficult thing. I know that I need to get nutrients into my body. I begin to gag when somethings hit the back of my throat. I was cruising along last week eating everything in sight. I was getting up a couple of times a night hungry so I would get up and eat. Now even the thought of food turns my stomach. I love watching the Food Network. That is no more. I can't stand to look at food on TV. Since I have not been eating very much I have become so weak. This morning I was shaking when I got out of bed and almost passed out in the shower. I could barley hold my head up. I didn't think that I could drive so I didn't go to work today. I mostly laid around the house all day long wishing and praying my sickness would go far away. Don't get me wrong I am still so happy that I am pregnant and would take this terrible sickness over not being pregnant any day. I was just hoping that somehow I would get to bypass the sickness. So many women have told me that they never had any sickness while pregnant. All I have to say is lucky you. This feels like a very bad virus. C insisted that I call my doc this afternoon to see if they could do anything for me. They called in an anti-nausea medicine for me. I took it a little while ago and it seemed to help some. It seems to be wearing off now. Sugar and Spice must be growing something special this week!
With my first set of twins, I was pregnant every single day. My little boy, I was sick but it faded after about 11w. This pregnancy (twins), I havent puked at all, but have had a couple of days of a sick stomach. I find that peppermint tea works well, along with just crashing on the couch.
