into the 17th week (is this 4 months down?)
And still yakking. That’s all I had to say. Barfing, and feeling a bit sorry for myself. And I don’t want to hear that I’m ungrateful. I’m not. What I am, though, is sick. And sick of it.

Not a bad reason to feel so ill, really.
Been reduced to eating peaches, and some mashed potatoes, with great effort. Been throwing up Zofran, Phenergan, Unisom and B6.
Been feeling a bit like we rocked the boat when it was sailing along just fine. Yes. That sounds ungrateful. I can’t help it. It’s how I feel.
We’ve made it the final week of house prep, should get it on the market by Friday, and have made the first wave of moving to Atlanta, in with my folks for a few months. Kids seem to be doing great with this. Blessing here.
I’m trying to keep my eye on the prize. Really. But it’s tough when I mostly see the bottom of the toilet.
The ones who say they’re so sick in the beginning of pregnancy. I’ve been surfing pregnancy sites. And forums. And some say they can only subsist off strawberries, watermelon and cucumbers…oh the horror of eating too much fruit or veggies. Better watch the weight there. Don’t wanna overdue that.
I’m not that sick now. Have been, with other pregnancies. Now, I just wanna lay down, maybe gag a bit. Keep drinking and eating to keep the worst at bay. But what do I feel goes down best? Barbecue sandwiches…the smoked pulled pork and Carolina sauce kind. Maybe a cheeseburger. Creamy potato soup in a bread bowl. And eat the bowl. Um, taco dip with tortilla chips. Cheddar cheese sandwiches. Heavy on the cheese. I made a meat lasagne. It was good the first night. The leftovers make me wanna hurl. Parmesan risotto yesterday. Same story on the leftovers. And for the baked potato salad from The Fresh Market. With cheese, chives, and bacon. Hey. Dug it on the 4th. Threw the rest out last night.
Not only is it fatty, but it’s wasteful.
I’ve tried fruit. Veggies. They just aren’t doing it for me. Make me gag more. Plain crackers? They’re too plain. More gagging. A chocolate milkshake wouldn’t be bad. Real Coke with sugar, for the soothing bubbles? Too sweet. Diet Coke with toxic rat killing aspartame? Pretty good. So what about doing what your body says?
This cannot be good advice in all cases. Up till 3 days ago, I still thought wine for with dinner sounded good.
Hey. I make these killer creamy chicken enchiladas. They rock. One of my fav foods ever.
Tonight? I couldn’t finish one. Why? I don’t know. I still feel gaggy from eating the portion I did.
I asked my MIL hey, is that good, does it taste normal? She loved it. My husband? He said it was a bit bland, but fine. Me? Ick.
Maybe just normal fluxuations in tastes. Maybe more. It’ll take another 8-9 days to find out.
I think my body is playing tricks on me.
Some slight gaggy feeling today, and yesterday. But I don’t know if I ate enough with my horse ass prenatal, and they always make me feel gross.
Fav Mexican food not so fav tonight (yes, we ate Mexican, after a huge Easter meal with my folks). Just not quite right, the taste, or the fact that we were eating it today.
A sort of "I’m so hungry, I feel kind of gaggy, and like my stomach is gnawing" tonight, even though I’d eaten both the big Easter meal, and the Mexican (food, not person).
Burp-y, belch-y. More so than with usual intake of fav Mexican food.
But, my sense of smell isn’t whacked and highly tuned in, and that is usually the first thing to notice. And I’m not normally gaggy, but full on nauseated, and yarfing often.
So, at this point, I deduce that while these symptoms can be suspicious, they are not, indeed, indicative of a 10 or 3 day old pregnancy. Just my opinion. But, they are annoying, and I’ll be glad to get my period in 2 weeks to confirm this hypothesis.
