morning sickness (take 2)

i officially loathe morning sickness.{this may be TMI!}
it has moved from the easy nausea stage, to the vomit multiple times per day stage.

yesterday has been (and hopefully will be) the worst experience of all.
i vomited 6 times!
1. while taking a shower
2. after arriving at school
3. before leaving school
4. after arriving back at home
5. before leaving to pick up dinner and a few things at walgreens
6. after trying to eat some dinner

after throwing up my dinner, i decided it was time to call the triage nurse. matt was concerned that i wasn't getting enough fluid and nutrients. {i have lost 5 lbs this week with all the vomiting i've done!} the nurse recommended several OTC medications and matt was off to walgreens a second time. i'm not sure that the med helped...my stomach hurt worse after taking it...but i didn't vomit again.

i woke up this morning feeling very tired but not as nauseous. i've been able to eat some pretzels and drink gatorade.{so far, so good - i'm thankful!}

it's crazy to me that a baby {only the size of a raspberry at this point} can so drastically change the way your body functions!
