Some have said I've a flair for the dramatic, :giggle but it does feel a bit like being in hell. Morning sickness that is. The kind that sends you to the ER with severe dehydration. It happened the same way with the second pregnancy, so I naively thought I'd be spared the same this time around. I was wrong. So wrong. It hit me last Thursday morning as my friends were packing to go back home. After they left, I put the kids in bed and tucked myself back in. For the entire weekend, I couldn't manage to keep down ice chips. Yesterday, when my fingers and toes curled under and my legs cramped and collapsed as I tried to walk for the millionth time to the bathroom, I realized I needed to go in. Three bags of fluid and a prescription of Zofran later, I was back home and back in bed. Today, I have managed to keep all of my food and liquids in and am slowly beginning to feel like a human being again. I swear that drug is truly a miracle! I was 28 weeks with the last pregnancy before I could keep my lunch down...here's to hoping it doesn't take that long this time around. :therethere *insert tiny violin music here*
 
Oh no Jordan! I'm so sorry, that's gotta be so rough! Take care of yourself and keep us posted! :heartlub
 
oh, that sounds terrible!! I hope you start to feel better soon and that that morning sickness goes away very soon.
 
Oh goodness!! I hope that you're feeling well consistently soon and very soon!! :beat
 
oh Jordan, I hope you feel better really really soon. I was miserable for 30 or the 41 weeks (yeah, my daughter was in me for freaking 41 weeks!)
 
Oh nuts that's not good Jordan - I hope the medication helps you keep on top of it (fingers crossed for you)
 
Oh my! I'm so glad you went in. That's nothing to mess around with. Here's hoping the medicine continues to work miracles!
 
I'm glad you went to the hospital too. Dehydration is nothing to play around with. I can remember morning sickness very well. I hope it lightens up really soon for you!
 
Oh, how much I hated the first 6 months of pregnancy- I hope it comes together quickly (or the drugs work well!!) and you can feel relatively normal for a while - you have my complete sympathy... xx
 
Oh no!!! I hope the meds continue to work you are feeling better soon!!!

I only had morning sickness with my second DS and I puked morning/noon/night for 16 weeks. I thought I was going to die b/c I threw up so much!!!
 
Oh good gravy. You poor thing! That sounds absolutely horrible! I pray that it doesn't last as long this time for you and that the miracle drugs continue to help.
 
Oh goodness, girl! I can't believe you waited so long!! Zofran is a miracle drug. I am glad you are doing better now. You have my full and complete sympathy. I was sooooo sick with all of my pregnancies. I even spent an entire "vacation" in Palm Springs throwing up in the hotel room. Good times. I hope the Zofran makes the sickness manageable for you. Hang in there, sweetie!
 
well, congrats are in order! and I am so sorry you have been so sick! i hope things just get better from here!
 
Poor Girl! I can't imagine and hope that you are feelin' better soon. Please take care of yourself.
