Still Sick

June 30, 2014

At 14.5 weeks, I was really hoping my morning sickness would go away. But it's not gone yet. Though I can mostly manage it, and have my pills to take when needed, it's still there and being troublesome. Yesterday was the first day in a LONG time that it stayed away most of the day, so maybe there is some hope that I will come out of it, but today it's back to normal and I even had to throw up in my trash at work. On the bright side, I was actually able to EAT something after that, though I was only craving Wendy's fries and KETCUP, so that's what I had. Oh so good...

Anyway, it sounds like baby is doing well, and people have assured me that, even if I don't get over being sick (it is possible), no matter what I eat, baby is likely to be okay. I hope so. I'm trying to do what I can but it's not very easy to pull off. Instead I'd rather eat a box of Kraft Mac & Cheese and a bunch of French fries slathered in ketchup. Or a good portion of Chocolate Fudge Brownie from Ben and Jerry's. I can at least portion control to a degree.

On a rough note, Mike and I aren't getting along super great. I'm a little touchy and he gets angry at me when I get upset with him. I don't blame him, but I think he forgets that it's hard to me to stop myself sometimes. Hormones are mean, and make me mean a little bit sometimes. He is doing so much work outside and disappointed that I am not helping much, but he doesn't seem to realize that I'm still doing as much work as I usually do with both my jobs ON TOP of feeling crappy most of the time. Oh well, hopefully I can check my irritability when it spills over onto him.

Hoping the morning sickness takes a hike by the end of the week. Dr. Lown said it should, but oh man, I'm not sure....
