I haven't experienced much morning sickness...but I have been experiencing morning, noon, and night sickness. The worse part about it is that I can't even throw up to make it pass. The thought of most foods makes me cringe and after a couple bites I feel really nauseous and want the food to go away. A few things sound really good to me like fruit (cherries, nectarines, and watermelon) and sherbert ice cream. Things that sound really unappealing include steak, fish, blue cheese, and yogurt which happen to be my normal favorites.
I went to the doctor on Friday morning and it was an episode. I arrived 15 minutes early to fill out my paperwork as requested and then was stuck in the waiting room for another half an hour after that while the girls at the front desk argued over who was going to call DSHS for one of the girls in the waiting room who didn’t have their monthly ‘coupon’.
The place was quite dirty, very unorganized and didn’t really feel like a doctor’s office. The nurse who tried to take my blood for some tests stuck a needle in my arm about a half a dozen times before giving up and telling me she’ll try again next time. Apparently my veins weren’t cooperating.
I decided that I should probably look for a new doctor and so I called my friend Stephanie who is a pharmaceutical rep and she gave me the name of a doctor who is just a few blocks from our house that I’m going to start seeing at the end of the month. I’m feeling a little more comfortable with a referral which I should have requested in the first place.
My mom, Melissa and I went to Sumner days yesterday and had a lot of fun. I bought the cutest little swim suit in case it’s a girl (fingers crossed) and a little onsie that for the most part is gender neutral. After about an hour, I started feeling nauseous and had to go home and nap.
I took a picture and will try and upload once I get my photos uploaded to the computer.
