The Morning Sickness Parade Begins!

I believe the M/S is starting to set in. I felt pretty blah leaving work this morning (I'm on nights this month) and it was all I could do to force down some oatmeal so that I could take my Prometrium before bed. I woke up several times throughout the day, queasy each time. I haven't needed to vomit, just a general queasy and hungover feeling. And the thought of food (other than toast, eggs, oatmeal, or crackers) make me gag. But I only say this to document it, not to complain. If it gets me a healthy baby it's a welcome symptom.

The Prometrium makes my mouth taste like I ate sunscreen (don't look at me like that, you KNOW you've accidentally gotten sunscreen in your mouth once or twice). I'm sipping on a Cranberry Limeade hoping it will mask the taste, but more of it just keeps coming up from my stomach. Ick.

I slept ALL day today and I am still exhausted. I feel like I could sleep until Saturday if I didn't have to go to work. My eyes are so heavy. But that might have a little to do with the Prometrium as well. I am really looking forward to going back to bed. My house is a total disaster. The most I can manage is tossing a load of laundry in before dragging myself upstairs.

And lastly, the preggo nose has kicked in. I can smell everything. Even things that only exist in my head. That is seriously strange.
