Morning, Afternoon and Evening Sickness


For about 2 weeks I felt like this:
It hot me all of a sudden....one morning I was walking six miles on the Greenline and the next day I was down for the count. It was terrible. I didn't just have morning sickness. I had ALL DAY LONG sickness! I was miserable. I felt like I was going to throw up all day long. At first I didn't actually throw up and then it started and I couldn't keep anything down. I was actually starting to show signs of dehydration and Joe was very worried. Luckily he got me some Gatorade and I was able to keep that down. The worst part was our trip to Minnesota over the 4th of July. I felt so sick the whole time. I hated that I couldn't hang out with everyone but I just felt so bad.

On the way home from Minnesota I called the nurse and begged her to call me in an anti-nausea drug....let me just say this:
Phenergan is my new best friend! That stuff worked like a miracle drug. I can actually function like a normal human being now. I am down to taking 1/2 a pill every 8 hours or so. Hopefully I will be past all of this soon and will not need to take any more medicine.
When I was so sick these things seemed to make it is a little easier:

I just use a little dot of this and breathe it in, rub on my temples, etc.
{Popsicles}
really any kind will do :)

{Fresca}
yum...that's all there is to say.

Oh man...I remember that feeling well. So helpless! Hope you keep getting relief! I promise it's all worth it!

Bless your heart! That's a nasty feeling. I am seventeen weeks and still feel nausea from time to time. It's hard to do sometimes (and so easy to do other times!), but I am trying to eat a little something every few hours to see if it helps. Thank goodness for medicine made for the pregnant ladies!
By the way, I love your ticker and didn't even think about finding one on the bump! I must get one! :)

What week did your morning sickness start to improve? I am 7 weeks now and can't stomach anything. My dr. gave me phenegran but I can't take it during the day and teach.

Thanks!
