Sick. So sick to my stomach. I threw up yesterday for the first time and stayed at work all day feeling miserable. Nothing really helped. I even went and laid down in my care for a half hour. Finally around 4:30 I started feeling slightly better. By that time I left to go home. I got home and cooked myself dinner, ate about a quarter of it and just felt blech. So I ate half a lemon (I know, sounds gross, but it's the only thing that makes the queasiness go away!). Then I put my Seaband bracelets on, took some ginger, ate some crackers, drank some water and laid down. I had to yell at Scout to leave me alone because the smell of her was making me sicker. By the time Christopher got home at 9:30 I was still feeling awful. It feels like a monstrous hangover that won't go away. He made me some scrambled eggs and that seemed to help. I went to bed and slept with the bracelets on.
I got up this morning and like magic, I feel back to normal. I ate a huge breakfast and brought lots of food to work. I have just devoured a foot long sub for lunch! I have NEVER eaten a foot long in my life! I still don't feel full. As long as I keep the bracelets on and keep my tummy full, I'm fine. I don't know how I would do it if I was sick every day!!
I called yesterday to make my doctor appointment and I could only leave a message. They never called back, so I called again today. My first appointment isn't until I'm almost 11 weeks!! And I won't even see my doctor, only a nurse! Oh well...
I finally feel like I'm starting to worry less about a miscarriage and instead I'm learning to enjoy the experience. I think I'm going to have to spill the beans soon, because I can't fit into my pants, I already have a little bump (which I can't physically suck in!), and I look like a goof with dark blue motion sickness bracelets on! I was hoping I could wait until after the first appointment, but I think it will be too obvious by then.
