there is a book i have on pregnancy thats really funny, think its called things i hate about being pregnant. If I didnt have it to laugh at i would have cracked up as I knew what she was talking about teh whole way through. its like a book sections not a novel. East to diguest. (not literally lol)

i had a look on play.com where i got it and cant find it i will have a look later its a cheap enough book.

ginger is def a no no, it burns sooo bad! - ice cream's not too bad on the way back up again!

 

[Dream.A.Dream]

But it goes all curdled and gross.

Ribena tastes okay second time round though xx

cereal is out of the question its like broken glass exiting. Oh my throat bleed when I was pregnant I always ate yogert for breakfast in the morning as it was easy to loose again.

I find cereal too sore to be sick with aswell

 

[craftymum]

all I could eat was toast, cheese and apples - I must admit it's great being able to eat proper food again and you will all get there too as I remember feeling like I never would.

I found it weird after william was born to not throw up. I remember eating my breakfast in hospital fully expecting to throw it up again I was so used to it. Stopped in the labour, but I had so many meds in me I was bound to be sick even with anti sickness tablets in me. Now I cant stop eating

 

[teal]

I was going to say it must be weird being able to eat normally again after being sick for so long. Just now I can't even imagine eating something without at least feeling sick after it.

I've had a bad few days. I was back down seeing my doctor yesterday anyway because I had to pick up another line for work She mentioned I didn't look like I wasn't getting enough since the skin all around my mouth is dry and cracked. She gave me more stemetil. I like seeing this doctor - she is lovely and she had hyperemesis with her pregnancy so she's more understanding about it and doesn't try to tell me it will go away at x weeks. She did say to keep looking forward and I'll feel fantastic after I have my baby in February. I'm starting to believe that - especially with you girls on here!

Today I'm managing to keep down ice cold water. I mean ice cold - it's pretty much the glass filled with crushed ice!

I hope everyone is doing ok today xx

 

[Dream.A.Dream]

I'm glad you have a good doctor. Mine are all awful.

I'm not doing too fab, I haven't eaten a proper meal in over a week because I'm throwing up all the time and I'm really starting to feel it, so tired and just feel weak and yuck! xx

 

[Kitty23]

Well done Teal for keeping down the water

Oh Katy sorry your doctor is so crap. Hope next week is better for you

I managed to be sick all over myself whilst some friends were over this afternoon. Lovely lol. No warning just bleugh all over my clothes. I don't know who was more shocked me or them lol!

But on the plus side it was smoothie and it actually tasted alright on the way back up!

Off to my sisters this weekend so fingers crossed the sickness isnt too bad. I was very tearful last night with DH, he's so stressed at work then comes home and cleans and cooks dinner and I feel so bad he's such an angel and I feel like I need to be doing more but I am too exhausted.

I know exactly what you mean. My OH is doing so much and I feel really bad, like I should be doing it, but I just don't have the energy xx

I wish i could be put in deep sleep and wakeup on 16th dec, im just so fedup with this sickness...... im sorry for all the ladies here, i wish i could say something more than what others have said that could make it better for you... just hang in there, i guess it wil be worth at the end.... this is my first, so im just looking forward to experiencing the end result of all these crappy time. Havent heard of anyone experiencing hypersalivating, its annoying, i have spit cup along with me everywhere i go.... how annoying? Thanks for the amazing support her, it helps alot....gnite everyone and hope you wil get sound sleep minus sickness...

 

[Kitty23]

Henrica your almost there .Hope you sleep well Yes I have soo much spit I thought I was just really odd lol.

I know what you mean Katy, I almost feel like a child right now that can't do anything for themselves. I'm going to write dh a note tonight about how much I apprieciate he does for me

Anyone else considering this is their last pregnancy because they cant face hyperemisis again? I know I'm having 3 but we always wanted 4 or 5 and I really really think this will be my first and last pregnancy, the thought of having this again is just terrifing xxx

 

[Dream.A.Dream]

I have seriously considered whether or not I would have another. But a little voice in the back of my head just keeps saying "but next time you could be fine, there's no guarantee you'd get this again" which makes it harder to make a final decision xx

 

[Dragonfly]

I am facing the same, I want another even though I went through a shit pregnancy I hold out hope that it will be different, maybe my body wont do that again. But when I seen William when he was born I realised it was so worth it and I would do it again for another. 9 months of being sick for the rest of my life with my children to me its worth it. But when i was pregnant I wouldnt have said that I was adamant I was having no more,.

 

[Henrica80]

Iam on the same boat, i just feel i wont stand another 9 long crappy months but then again as katy said, been told pregnancy are not the same, so there is a chance of not being sick again but 50 50, my dh wants 4 kids How is everyone doing today? hope you all have a better day

 

[teal]

I'm doing better today - still managing the ice cold water! How are you feeling today Henrica? xx

 

[NIfirsttimer]

u know what girls..... i spent 9 months saying NEVER again!! i used to be in tears becasue coming from a big family, i was heartbroken that Ruby was going to be an only child..
and u know what.. i CANNOT WAIT to do it all again!
its the weirdest thing.. they are so worth it..
im not looking forward to 9 months of that again, but i know that the reward at the end will spur me on this time, i didnt have a clue what it was going to feel like to meet my baby girl, so i had nothing to keep me focused in that pregnancy, but now that i know its the most amazing thing in the whole world ever... i think it will make it a bit easier!

 

[Dragonfly]

same as meself then.

 

[Dream.A.Dream]

Blergh

I'M HUNGRY!! Let me eat you stupid body

Sorry- just had to get that out xx
