My so charmed pregnancies
I suck at being pregnant. My body just does not handle pregnancy well at all. My first pregnancy was a disaster from start to early finish. I had nausea from 2 days after finding out I was pregnant to 3 … Continue reading
It’s the end of the world as we know it (and I feel fine)
Well… maybe a little exhausted & covered in spit up, but mostly fine. November 16 at 2:01 pm our lives were turned upside down (in a good way). The baby formerly known as Boyshteyn was born and we officially became … Continue reading
Will I ever learn?
I decided to try eating soon after I got up today. The nausea was semi-mild, so I thought I’d give it a try. Bad idea. Like really stupid. Now I’m sitting in bed willing myself not to throw up. I … Continue reading
Each morning I wake up, before I put on my make-up…
I spend a little time with my head in the toilet. Mostly gagging, wretching, stuff like that. Funsies. Still, it’s nothing like having hyperemesis, so I can hang. Things I’m looking forward to this week: Lunch & pedicures with Tara … Continue reading

No. No. No.
Tonight I was only able to get my Lamictal, folic acid/B12/B6 combo, & 1/2 of my prenatal vitamin down. I got the DHA part, but not the big white part. I guess I’ll try again at lunch tomorrow. It wasn’t … Continue reading
