Holy jeebus! This past week was an "eye opener." Not sure how big this baby is gonna be, but he/she sure is making some room down there. Not to mention he/she won't let me eat anything without me getting sick. Not even water! I know women go through morning sickness. I know its normal. I thought I was one of the lucky ones who didn't because I didn't with Ellie. Absolutely and totally wrong. Luckily, so far, I haven't had to throw up. Just feel like it.
I have found a couple of things that haven't made me ridiculously nauseous. A frosty from Wendy's. It was the very first thing I have even seen so far that looked even slightly appetizing, so of course I thought I'd give it a try. I ate my lunch first to get the protein down, and once that was down, I didn't want anything. I forced myself to eat the frosty. And believe it or not, it not only didn't make me nauseous, but it helped to get rid of the nausea I was already feeling! Hooray for frosties! A friend also gave me the suggestion to drink my water ice cold, which I normally hate (the temperature hurts my teeth). I tried it, and it definitely doesn't both my stomach as much as cool water. I have found that most foods that are in their natural state (fruits and veggies) don't affect my stomach as much either. By the way this is going, I'll be a vegetarian by the end of this pregnancy.
I know that normally, the first trimester is the worst, so here's hoping to a very quick 6 to 8 weeks! :)
