A Trip Down Memory Lane

I forgot how much "fun" the first trimester is. Actually, I don't even think I forgot. I am almost positive I wasn't this nauseous with Lincoln. I remember being tired out of my mind with Lincoln. Right now I do get tired more quickly yes, but not like I remembered. Instead I just feel like blah.


I feel the worst when I'm hungry. Usually if I'm feeling nauseous and I eat something within a few minutes my tummy settles down and all is well for awhile. But have you ever tried to eat when you feel like puking? And so I find myself standing indecisively in front of the refrigerator looking at what we have to eat. I run through the options in my head, but all the options make me want to vomit. I'm not joking. It's so ridiculous because I know that the one things that will make me feel better is eating something...anything. But I can't do it because everything sounds gross, or the smell of it is gross.


So what do I do? I put off eating as long as I can, which is brilliant (please note the sarcasm and the eye rolling) and when I'm desperate I end up eating about 4 pieces of toast, because it is the only thing I can attempt to choke down. I can't even tell you how much bread we've gone through in the last two weeks. But I guess I should be grateful because I haven't actually thrown up yet. I just feel like I'm going to most of the time. Maybe it will be better when we get away from the heat. Who knows.
