my thoughts exactly...

About 8.5 weeks into it all and this sketch describes exactly how I feel. People tell you about morning sickness (I don't know why they call it morning sickness...it should be all-day sickness) and you hear all the stories but NOTHING compares to actually going through it. The first week was brutal. My doctor first gave me Promethzine and all it did was make me sleepy. The only good thing...while I slept was when I felt the most relief. After 2 days of that I called in again and they gave me Zofran. I was finally able to keep food down and I can honestly say that I had never been happier ;) BUT...we are almost back to square one. The Zofran works...if I don't end up throwing up a few hours after I take it. And for the past few days that has been rare. I hate the feeling of having to constantly eat, when I don't feel hungry but if I don't eat I know I will throw up. If I never eat another saltine cracker, piece of toast, or mashed potatoes...it may be too soon. I really do not want to sound all "woe is me, " I just think I needed a litte venting time :) because believe me I do not what is at the end of all of this and that does make it 100% WORTH IT! I just can't wait for this part to be over with and I am hoping that it doesn't last much longer. Tanner has been 100% AMAZING through this whole thing. I feel so bad because the thought of cooking makes me want to throw up, but he has been so great and understanding and has found ways to feed himself. I have to have a little bragging moment...Last night after we got home from a game night, I got very sick. I was so tired but I knew I needed to eat something, because I had just emptied my stomach. I was crying because I new I was exhausted, I was so sick and nothing sounded good (it was close to 11:30). Tanner reminded me there will be good days and bad days but we just have to remember the blessing that we will have at the end of this. Then he told me that he would help me find something to eat and would sit on the couch with me while I ate. It may not sound like much...but to this hormonal pregger, it was just what I needed.
