As time goes on, memories can get a little fuzzy.
That does not go for me and my morning sickness. To all of you who have not experiences morning sickness during your pregnancy...I loathe you!
Yes, I'm a hater because morning sickness feels like being in some sort of altered state. It's like an outer body-inner body experience. There is no "cure"...you must just go through it.
I had all of the crackers and ginger I wanted and that did nothing for me. My morning sickness is "relief-proof".
So, I am remembering what it was like to be 11 weeks pregnant. Here's what I wrote:
My mood was "a little desperate". Feeling desperate to shed the first trimester [blues] and I have had enough with morning sickness. Feeling strong cravings for tomato sauce...via pasta or pizza.
At this point, I am so close to the finish line that I feel I wont make it. I just want to sleep all the way to the 12th week, because that is usually when I start to feel like myself. I have morning sickness for about 3 months- from the 6th week until about the 18th week. That progesterone then levels off and the morning sickness leaves within hours. I am back to myself...with a little one inside. Only then can I focus on the future with love and hope.
Til next time.
