The word of the day is:

BLAH! I have been feeling SO sick. It gets really bad at night. I hate food right now and don't like having to choke it down. However, I am loving this!

Don't get me wrong, I can't wait until this passes, but I am very happy at my body doing what it should be. I think the baby is going through a growth spurt this week though because I've been so sick.

It is hard not to tell people at work. I just have to suck it up and get through the night. It doesn't help that it is the worst at night.

I just started taking Expecta Lipil DHA Supplements because I don't like fish and I need DHA (even though the Expecta is a non-fish source of DHA). I also started taking Aspirin 81 mg to thin my blood a little and make sure it won't clot. I take these along with my prenatals usually before bed because, sure enough, these make me feel more sick. When I'm laying down or sleeping, it doesn't seem that bad. Oh, and of course, I'm still taking 200 mg Progesterone every night. Phew! that's a lot of meds. I usually don't take anything at all!

(KIM, If you read this, For some reason, I can't sign onto messenger. I will keep trying, but just wanted to let you know. I hope you are having a good day!)

Have a great day everyone!

My sickness peaked at 8 weeks. Then I started taking Zofran or I would not have been able to function. I think the progesterone makes it worse! Glad you are battling through it! Hope it goes away quick! (secretly I am SO happy you are sick!!)

I saw your message! I saw you on messenger this morning when I got to work, and thought it was odd. Then I didn't say anything. I guess I should have tried to message you! Sorry you have been sick, but I'm glad, too! I can't believe you are taking all those meds. You'll have to tell me more about the aspirin. Hopefully we'll figure out a way to chat soon!

When I said - "I saw your message" - I meant I saw the one you wrote in your blog, I didn't mean to make you think that I had a message from you on messenger, because I didn't! Just saw you online.
