I am so happy to read I'm not alone. This is our third. I have never felt like this before with the other two, I had a headache only once and that was my worst complaint. Now I am exhausted from morning till night, and nauseous all day and night. My doctor gave me Diclectin 2 at bed and one in the morning and one at lunch. They also gave me some suckers called B-Natal, I'm allowed. To have a max of three a day. Aside from being very tired today the nausea seems to be a little better. I wish you all the best of luck and look forward to following along with you during this excited time.
I can relate to all of this....I thought that having a total license to eat would be so much fun, but I literally have to make myself eat every 2-3 hours and NOTHING sounds good at all. It's become such a chore LOL! If I wait too long, I start feeling sooooo sick to my stomach. It totally catches me by surprise and I'll think "But I JUST ate!" Foods I used to eat that would fill me up for much longer don't do it anymore. I'm kind of nervous about the weight gain aspect. I weighed myself this morning and surprisingly, I've only gained about 3 pounds, but I look like I've literally gained 15 and a lot of my clothes don't fit. Not sure what's up with that. Maybe I need a new scale....
I hope you ladies start to feel better soon. I am passed those stages now for about a week. The only thing that has been bothering me lately is these bad headaches. OMG I had one for 2 days and tylenol was not working but it eventually went away. I am craving all types of food like the other day I ate fried gizzards and ice cream.
Today's highlight? STABBING pains in the BBs. I thought they were sore before this? No, they were just playing. Today they are killing me. and last night the felt like they were on fire -- really warm, warmer than the rest of me.
This is my second one too and I feel so much worse this time. I eat thinking I'll feel better sometimes works sometimes not. Regardless I am gaining weight much faster this time around, go figure.
im exacly the same baby number 2 and i have gone off everything including meat the thought of eating makes me feel ill... its really hard aswell coz of having to look after my 7 month old :S
your not alone :) xx
yep this baby is kicking my booty too! Constantly nauseous and riding in the car seems to make it all so much worse. You guys hang in there, we wont be in our first trimester forever :)
Hahaha if you've been reading my statuses you know I feel exactly the same way...
my nausea/"morning sickness" has gotten progressively worse with every pregnancy....I was nauseous throughout my first pregnancy so I didn't gain any weight but I didn't vomit the whole time, my 2nd pregnancy I threw up the first and 3rd trimesters...this one is getting worse..and worse.
Literally, I ate a single piece of bread and drank a coke and a glass of water...EACH DAY this week. Total...I think I managed that and maybe 2 crackers on tuesday, but every other day it was the same...bread and a little bit of liquids. Even with zofran during the day and phenergan at night I was getting severely dehydrated and I've lost 13lbs inthe last 10 days...today I forced myself to eat an entire meal at dinner and now I'm literally sitting here gagging and what I call "squelching" (where you burp and gag but don't throw up) trying to keep it down....
simply awful. HOPEFULLY I'll get a reprieve in the 2nd trimester though, and you too girls!!!
I know exactly how you ladies feel! My doc gave me some pills called zofran and it works wonders! I take one as soon as I wake up before I even get out of bed and the I have some toast and its amazing
I hear ya! I'm about one week behind you. Ironically the only time I actually feels is in the morning -- I usually get up and have some toast right away. then things go progressively downhill all day. It's really hard being at work and feeling sick and exhausted every afternoon. ack. I'm trying to do the small meals often thing but I am not sure I am a believer yet. I can't wait to see if it actually gets better in the 2nd trimester. Lord, I hope so!!!
