Is today over yet?

Well, today really blew!! It started out well this morning. I was actually feeling pretty good. I felt fine when I went to church. We were all standing up singing and I started to feel kind of light headed like I wasn't getting enough oxygen so I have to sit down. As the service continued my stomach didn't really feel nauseous but I started to feel like I might throw up anyway. Anyone who has been pregnant knows what I mean by that. I managed to make it through the service but left for the bathroom immediately afterwards. As I was heading in the door I had to pick up the pace a bit cause I knew it was coming and soon. I then proceeded to throw up my breakfast. I stayed in the bathroom long enough till I knew I was done then went back outside to find Jake. He was chatting with a few people that I had recently met and the pastor so I walked up and joined them. I met one lady and another guy that was standing in the group and Jake mouthed to me "you look green." I still wasn't feeling too good so I told them I needed to go home since I wasn't feeling so hot. A couple of them knew I am pregnant so I'm sure they understood.

I got home and decided that I needed to eat again since I deposited my breakfast in the church toilet. I have had my mom's homemade mac & cheese a few times since I have been pregnant so I figured that was pretty safe. So we made it for lunch and I had a nice big helping since I was so freaking hungry. All went well with that...at least for a little while. After about 2 hours I was feeling really quite nauseous again and had to get up quickly to head to the bathroom where I then deposited my lunch into the toilet.

I felt ok after that until about 2 hours later and had to make another run to the bathroom. That was the worst one since I didn't have much food left in me to throw up, mostly just stomach acid at this point. After the acid was gone it was pretty much just a lot of dry heaving. Which if you have ever done that you know how painful it is. By this time my throat felt like it had a hole in it. I happened to be talking to Tiffany on Skype when I made my third trip to the bathroom and she suggested that I get some Tums. So Jake and I headed down to the store to get some. They didn't have any Tums but I got some chewable cherry Mylanta tablets. I took some as soon as we left the store and after about 10 seconds my throat felt amazingly better. So thanks Tiff!!

When we got home I was again hungry due to all the throwing up and so I figured I'd try to go easy on my stomach and have some chicken broth for dinner. I am happy to say that is still in my stomach, at least for now. It is 7:55pm so we'll see how the rest of the night goes.

Tomorrow I hit the 15 week point and only 4 more weeks till we get to find out if we are having a boy or girl!! I can't wait for that. I really hope they are able to tell!

Ok this is getting really long so I am going to end it now. I will be posting my 15 week belly pic tomorrow so stay tuned.
