Hungry!!!

[scheelimama]

I get so excited when I actually feel hungry, since most of the time I'm just nauseous. But my girls both woke me around 12:45 a.m. and I just couldn't go back to sleep. I couldn't turn my mind or my stomach off. So, I'm having my first (of many I'm sure) middle of the night meal. I did this a lot with my other pregnancies, but so far managed to ignore the hunger and go back to sleep before tonight. I figured if I eat, I'll probably go back to sleep easier and maybe, just maybe, my morning sickness when I wake in the morning won't be so bad. Anyway, I just thought I'd say hi, since I'm wide awake with nothing to do.

Well? Did it work? did you get to sleep?

It's amazing how I must eat like every three hours or less all day, but at night I can wait ten hours. I cannot believe I slept a whole ten hours last night! I am soooo tired lately.

I am the sickest I have been as of today, and I think it's because we went to bed late, didn't sleep in, got up 4 times to pee, the kitten had me up longer, etc.. But each time I went back to bed I thought maybe I should eat and I think I was right. I felt so terrible in the morning!

Kind of. I did feel a bit better in the morning. I still had trouble sleeping. Not sure what was up the other night. I hate to eat in the middle of the night. It totally wakes me up, but if I'm awake for more than 5 minutes, my stomach wakes up.

Gina, I'm sorry you are so sick. For me, going to bed as early as I can, eating when I'm hungry, and every 2 hours if I'm not hungry (not at night of course) help out a lot. And knowing what my body needs, protein and sugar seem to help me out a lot.
