Morning sickness or Stomach bug?

6 weeks 4 days


Yesterday was awful! When I laid in  bed Monday night to go to sleep I suddenly felt very sick and had to go throw up. I felt better after that and went on to sleep. Woke up a few hours later feeling very very sick. I threw up the rest of the night and by morning I was still at it! I continued to get sick ALL day yesterday. I told myself in the beginning I didn't want to have to take anti nausea medication but I knew I needed it because I couldn't keep ANYTHING down. So I called the Dr. and he called me in some Phenergan. Bless him! I REALLY needed it!! I was getting sick at least 3 times during an hour and it was like 10 min. long sessions with my head in the toilet. Eww! I went to town and got my prescription and also went to KFC to get some mashed potatoes and a biscuit for later if the meds worked. I only got sick 2 times on that outing. I have to carry a puke sack with me every where I go now for emergencies. I got home and took the med but it seemed like it took a while for it to kick in. It started to make me feel really sleepy and since I hadnt had much I opted for a nap. Jacob woke me up when he got home, which I wasnt too happy about, mind you.  But I was feeling a bit better so I decided to take a risk and eat those mashed potatoes and biscuit. I needed to eat something!! I was really worried I might get dehydrated! I didn't feel too good after I ate it and I gagged a few times but I was able to keep it down! Whew!! I then slept through the night pretty good. I woke up at one point soaked in sweat but other than that I slept pretty good. 


Today I feel tons better! So now I am wondering, was it morning sickness or was it a stomach bug? I didn't think it was a stomach bug yesterday because I had no fever but I feel so much better today i'm leaning more towards a bug. Let me take a HUGE sigh of relief here!!! I still feel queezy and I have gotten sick once so far today but it may be left over gross stomach bug germs making me sick or the fact that my stomach is empty and I'm pregnant and I need to eat! Here's to hoping today and each day after is much better than yesterday!


I forgot to mention a few more symptoms I was experiencing yesterday. Along with the severe nausea I was having really bad stomach aches and terrible gas and gas pains! At one point I couldn't move because the gas pains hurt so bad!  The stomach ached confused me a bit. Sometimes they felt like stomach pains and then sometimes they felt like severe cramping. I guess it's hard to distinguish between the two sometimes since the pain comes from around the same area. 


On to other news! I guess I forgot to post that my ultrasound I was supposed to have today got moved back to the 29th. I was super bummed when they called and told me that they had to change it because I just want to SEE and make sure my little bean is alright and everything is where everything should be! 6 days to go! And I can't wait!!!! 


Tomorrow is Thanksgiving and that means lots of family. We are getting Abigail in the morning and since we haven't told her yet, we will have to do it in the car on the way to thanksgiving with Jacob's family. Not exactly the way I wanted to do it but If we don't tell her then, then someone else will at lunch. Everyone else already knows and i'm sure it will be brought up. I hope she will be excited! :D HAPPY THANKSGIVING TO YOU ALL!!
