Morning sickness.....


So how can something so beautiful and wonderful make me feel so rotten!?!? I am so excited to finally call myself a mommy, but it is not easy so far. Some days I feel great, but then other days, like yesterday I just want to lay on the couch and sleep. I am very jealous of women who don't have to work, but tomorrow I get to go to the doctor at 8 and then drive to Hendersonville for an audit. Driving in the car, especially in the mornings wakes me want to vomit. The motion is not cool. It should be an interesting day. Don't get me wrong though, I love my baby and I just can't wait to hold it! My baby is a blessing and I will survive this!!

Just happened to see the title of your blog on the Scots site and thought I have something to offer.

I'm with you on the m/s bit (due early Nov.). After not being able to keep anything down for two days straight, my midwife put me on 500 - 1000 mcg of B12 (I take 500 in the am and 250 mid day and at bed time) and a unisom (which I only take at bedtime, because like you, I work). It has been a difference of night and day. I still feel a bit queasy from time to time, and oddly, drinking lemonaide really helps at those times! (?)

I hope you find relief. The car really gets me, too. I either bring some lemonaide or a cup of ice chips (Sonic sells bags of ice, now!) and that seems to help.

I also wear SeaBands. I feel kind of silly dressed up for work with these blue bands around my wrists, but I'd rather feel silly than queasy.

Mrs. Pace!! I saw the feed of your blog on Scots Alumni and I'm so excited about your good news!

My parents have been in town, and before they headed off home, we all went up the mountain to scope out Covenant and the new academic building...and it occurred to me that ten years ago this summer was our Freshman Check-in Summer. Whew! How time has flown, right?

Come on over to my blog sometime and read up on me. I haven't posted in a month, but I'm getting back on the wagon tomorrow.
