Poor Neglected Blog

I think my blog will feel neglected soon. I started my new job today. So what does that have to do with my blog? Well I came home today from work and immediately ran to the bathroom. The nausea from morning sickness you see. Then I ate something and then fell right asleep for an hour. When I woke up from my nap where was I? In the bathroom again hovering over the toilet feeling nauseous again. So between morning sickness, being tired all the time, and now work I think little old blog will fall to the side. And don’t even talk about my knitting! I haven’t even picked up any knitting at all since the nausea started!

But who knows…I’ll have to see. I’m surprised I actually felt ok enough to actually came on here to type this so we’ll see how it goes.

Ok…and now back to bed I go.

Bucket Please

You know I would never would have thought I would want a bucket for the car. A bucket for what? I have this fear that while I’m driving to or from work that I will need to puke and I can’t pull over fast enough and the idea of throwing up on myself or on the side onto my emergency brake isn’t very appealing.

And yes I’m on here posting again. Amazing. Maybe this will become habit. Come home. Fight to not throw up. Nap. Wake up long enough to toddle around the house and POST on blog. Go back to sleep for the night. And tomorrow during the toddling around the house time I’m going to try to pick up some of my knitting. :) That sounds like a plan.

Meowing Cat

I am having an especially bad night. My nausea has been worse then usual. Even orange juice (which has been like a magical wonderful elixir to chase away my urges to vomit) isn’t working. I am grumpy and tired. Tired because last night or I should say this morning at 3:39 a.m. I was awakened to a light in the backyard and the sound of meowing. I guess a cat had passed in front of the motion sensored lights which should have been OFF. So I got up and turned them off after peering out the window for this forlorn sounding kitty. So today when I got back from work I kept hearing intermittent meowing. When Alan woke up I asked him to check for a cat outside in case it was caught on something or in case it was some serial killer pretending to be a cat to lure me out. He thought both ideas were silly I guess because he refused and then left for work without even kissing me goodbye. And now I’m GRUMPY!

Sucking Lemons

So…I’ve been reduced to sucking on lemons. Yep. I think the orange juice was helping before because it was sour. But we bought a different brand last time we went to the grocery store so maybe that’s why it doesn’t work anymore. But eating lemons seems to help. As soon as I have the urge to vomit I go and suck on a piece of lemon. I would never have thought I would be sitting around eating lemons. It’s very strange.

So Fed Up

I had an extremely bad day today. More nauseous then usual. I am so FED UP! How do other pregnant women do it? I don’t know about them but I am pretty much nauseous all day, even when I’m asleep. I half wake up during the night and feel like crap. I am so tired of it I could just cry. I don’t always vomit, but I am always nauseous. I HATE it!! It makes working so hard. I left work early today I felt so bad. Is that normal? To be this nauseous? I’m so frustrated! :(
