23-1-2009 - I'm Still With The M/S

My mood while writing this blog: nauseated, emotional, bloated, gassy, YOU NAME IT!

Hey Ladies! Well its been a good little while since I wrote something on here, and I haven't been able to leave any comments or messages to any of you either, soooo.... sorry in advance. I read all of your blogs, read all of your comments, and see all of your pictures, it's just that I have to kind of rush my time on the computer. I am nauseated enough as it is and being on the computer makes it so much worse.

So as my little mini message to all of you, before I rant about myself, is.....Congratulations to all my friends who have given birth and who are going to be giving birth in the near future. Life and Love is oh so precious and giving birth only intensifies it. Also a big Congratulations to all the mommies to be who got to see their baby for the first time via ultrasound. I'm hoping I am next at my first OB appointment on Tuesday. And a deep heartfelt I'm so sorry to the Mother's who have lost their babies. It is a true tragedy that is horrible to go through. Just have faith that everything happens for a reason and never give up hope. I have you all in my prayers and wish you all the best of health and the best in life.

NOW.....about me.... ; ). Well pregnancy is a beautiful wonderful experience to go through. With that said, WHAT IN THE WORLD IS UP WITH MY CONSTANT NAUSEA?! UGH! Don't get me wrong I actually appreciate having m/s, for it lets me know that I truly am pregnant. Only thing is I wish it was like my first pregnancy where I only got it once a day for about 2-3 weeks. So easy so simple. Every day, those 2-3 weeks, whenever I took a shower in the day I would always throw-up right when I got out. Really weird but hey at least I was already getting all cleaned up and was right there to brush my teeth right afterwards. But NOOOOO! I am nauseaus all day long this time around. I wake up nauseated, I eat I'm nauseated, I go outside I'm nauseated, I go for a walk I'm nauseated, I drink water I'm nauseated, I lay down to sleep I'm nauseated. It is just so darn draining. Oh and I never have actually thrown up until yesterday. It was horrible. I hate throwing up. The last part always tastes like acid to me. Sorry if TMI but ewww!

Another thing that I have been experiencing is smelling weird things. Just a little bit ago I was laying in bed with my hubby when I got the strongest sweetest smell of cookie dough. Oh man did that make me sick. It was horrible. My husband is all "If its a sweet smell then what's so bad about it". But it was horrible! I felt like somebody just shoved a cup full of cookie dough down my throat. UGH! Then there is the gas. I can't control it and its a lot of gas all at once. Once again sorry for TMI. My two year old son has even started to look at me, give me a nasty look, and say "ewww" after I let one lose. He has never done that before. It is just horrible.

Let me rant on the emotional part of my pregnancy now. It is sad. I wait till its just my hubby and I alone and I just start crying my eyes out. Basically crying and whinning to him about how I hope he isn't upset with me, and I hope he truly believes that I am really sick with constant nausea. I'm telling you its just sad. The worst part is he isn't even accusing me of faking or lying about any of it. If anything he has taken on all the house chores and had also done all the cooking. He has been nothing but incredible. And what do I do is whine and cry to him. My poor love. God has truly blessed me with a wonderful, great man.

So there you have it. I have now managed to complain to you all about my major pregnancy symptoms. As much as I dislike them I really appreciate them. It makes me feel truly pregnant. With my last pregnancy, that ended in a miscarriage, I wasn't feeling hardly anything of m/s, so I'm taking it as a very good sign to major hormonal changes in my body, working for the survival of my baby. I am super excited and nervous about my OB appointment on Tuesday but having nothing but a positive attitude of what is to come. I will keep you all posted on the appointment and will be dropping in to see how you all are doing as well.

Much Love and Happiness to You All ,

Mrs. Leyva
