This Too Shall Pass

As I near my 12 week mark in the pregnancy, I really thought my nausea and upchucking would be lessening. Instead, sadly it seems to be increasing. I have puked at least once a day for the past week. And it's not just morning sickness anymore. It has turned into an anytime thing. Last night, I blew blood vessels in my face from the sheer force of my supper making a return appearance. As I type this, I can feel my throat watering and I'm trying really, really hard to not throw up on the laptop.

Maybe this is too much "icky" information to be sharing, but it's what I'm dealing with. I went and bought a second toothbrush last week so that I have one for regular cleaning and one for post-puke cleaning. I designated the blue toothbrush as the post-puke one because nausea and feeling blue seem to go together. Ugh. I probably shouldn't have eaten that canned icing :-)

  2. About week 16 things changed for me. Hopefully your current unwanted symptoms won't last much longer... then you can get some new ones! I'm already getting swollen ankles. *sigh* (at 19 weeks!!)
