Here comes the train, wish I could get off the tracks... 9 Weeks

Well it finally really hit the nausea and vomiting. So far it only seems to be at certain times a day but it is finally hitting and it is nasty. I would really love to say I am wrong but after three other pregnancies I have a feeling this is the slide. So far it is really bad in the evenings. I had the worst of it last night. I had to wait an hour and a half to go to bed. Every time I tried to lay down it was immediate nausea.

I was beginning to hope I would have a normal pregnancy.

So today I am switching diets to the easier to handle mostly liquid and small meals. I am trying to incorporate as many high energy foods as possible to help with the tiredness. We will see if this helps. I think the hubby has decided it is time for me to return home sooner rather than later. He really worries and wants me to come home so that I am close to the doctor.

I am really taking it very easy here, I do cook dinners at night. This is a challenge considering smells tend to set me off but it is not to terrible. I don't think I will be able to continue my visit much longer which makes me very sad. I will not get to come back home until after the baby comes and that will be March or later.

Hubby has also decided I should not attempt homeschooling this year. I really want to do the homeschool option with the way schools are turning into the clearing house for budgeting in government. Our district is extending school days and then making class sizes larger to consolidate the payroll. As a teacher this rubs me all kinds of wrong. This goes against all the research and evidence of how classrooms should look for optimal student performance.

Maybe if I get home and spend less time getting sick he will still let me do homeschooling. I highly doubt it because he has that determined edge in his voice but we will see if I can convince him to change his mind.

Where am I today...
  • 9 weeks and 0 days pregnant
  • I am having much more frequent nausea and vomiting and hating it
  • My worst nausea seems to occur at night time right before bed
  • I have many decisions to make to try and get ready for the next few months
On a side note has anyone tried these...I am thinking of trying them. Any of you silent readers know much about them or have tried them please let me know.
