What a difference!

So with my last pregnancy I threw up 2-15 times a day. I lost 15% of my body weight and had to get IV fluids for hydration three times. My insurance company was stingy with the only drug that worked to help (Zofran). My prescription was written fo...

You have got to be kidding me

So I thought the vomiting was done. It had been about a month since I threw up because of the pregnancy. Last week I threw up once or twice. But it was at work, and they were painting the building, so I blamed it on the paint fumes. But they finis...

I told the husband yesterday that I don't think I can raise a child and be pregnant at the same time. For example, I'm going to go in for IV fluids today, just what would I do with a kid while I get that done? I couldn't keep anything down this w...

new meds

2006-09-13T16:14:10Z

Went to the doctor yesterday. Got another IV of fluids and a new anti-nausea prescription. It's a suppository. That's right, I'm going to be putting stuff in the exit to prevent stuff from exiting the entrance.

back from urgent care

2006-09-06T02:57:51Z

They gave me a liter of fluids via IV. The anti-nausea medicine was also given through the IV. I felt kind of silly at first, because it seems that everyone was asking me "is this your first pregnancy"? as if to imply that, because it is my first...

"morning" sickness, ha!

2006-09-06T00:46:17Z

I haven't been able to keep anything down today, not even small sips of water. I'm going to urgent care in a few minutes to see what they can do for me. The nurse that made the appointment didn't think they could do much beyond prescribing anti-n...

I puked for the first time in this pregnancy. I had gone to bed at about 9:30. Around 11pm, I woke up, hiccuped, and ran to the bathroom. It was very unpleasant because it was mostly dry heaving. I had just been feeling nauseous. I'm worried abou...
