Uh-Oh

I just did something really dumb that I think I'm going to regret in an hour or so.

I had this major craving for Piza Hut cheese sticks. I couldn't believe that the thought of them wasn't making me retch. So I went and got some. And ate all but one (which ds snarfed up). Now, I'm waiting for the nausea to rise.

Why did I do that? I should have just eaten some crackers.

Well, maybe it won't bother you. Here's to hoping! I have found that I really love V8 juice with some salt in it. I would have thought that would have made me feel worse (especially since spaghetti sauce makes me feel green), but it actually settled my stomack for a bit.

yep, I was feeling nauseous at the store and ended up with some ginger ale and a bag of black bean and jalapeno pepper tortilla chips! I at 2/3 of the bag and it actually helped; I felt a little better for a while, which was great considering I had to go pick up dd from preschool (20 min away).

:LOL cheese sticks sound good.

glad you made it in here, bex

Thanks mamas! And mad props (sorry, I like that phrase) to Kroonkles for eating the tortilla chips! :LOL

You know, I ended up NOT feeling sick! I have been burpy all evening, but better than usual.

While I have some true nausea, I have figured that at leat 1/3 of it is a nervous stomach. It has recently sunk in that I will have 2 children by the end of the year. I know that we purposefully tried, and I thought through everything before we started, but I can't help but be a little scared about handling it when the time comes. Sigh.

Thanks for the commiseration, mamas! And Julia--good luck again tomorrow!

Glad you did ok with those cheese sticks.

I had some major cravings for mexican food at first - chips with queso, tacos, taquitos, quesadillas, you name it. Then all of a sudden the thought just makes me sick. Yuck.

Weird how this pregnancy can mess with your mind.

Last pregnancy I was somewhat consistent with my cravings. This time, it changes from one minute to the next! I'll prepare something to eat and by the time it is ready, the thought turns me off and I have to eat something else! I feel like it is such an effort just to feed myself!
