The scene this morning:
Me overcome by nausea. Vomiting. While Mr. E stood by watching. When I could speak I’d say Mommy’s tummy really hurts. Hold on a minute. (This is something we’ve been telling him: Mommy is sick in her tummy, because I’ve been pretty useless these days.)
After several minutes he starts repeating: All done Mommy. ALL DONE!
Ya, I am pretty much all done with the morning sickness, but nonetheless, it’s not done with me. In fact, it’s just getting worse. I can’t take Mr. E to his music class today, the groceries have not been bought in almost two weeks and we NEED food, I need to do a few things at my Dad’s office, but have been too sick to go in.
It was not this bad last time. No where near as bad.
In other news, I had my ultrasound yesterday and we are having one baby! This was a huge relief.
And equally big news– I night weaned Mr. E this week and he has started sleeping in his own room all through the night. I am beyond ecstatic about this!!! We’re down to one nursing a day which I am fine with. I just could not do the over nights anymore.

I’m so sorry E! I have too much experience with morning sickness. The key for me was to keep the right amount of food in my stomach. And the oddest things were what stayed down. Red meat. Lemon. Most things with hot sauce on them. Bananas. B vitamins. Best wishes!

Oh dear, what is there to say? Hang in there, only six (or eight or ten) more weeks? Cold comfort, indeed. Pregnancy sickness the second time around, well, there just isn’t anything like it. At the risk of being totally annoying and nosy, I can’t help but wonder if the intensified sickness means a girl!

Ugh. I am, so, so sorry you’re dealing with this. It’s soooooo hard to have a toddler and feel awful. When I was about 8 weeks with Miss Bean, H had a stomach bug. I spent three days with Vics vapo-rub smeared under my nose so that was the only thing I smelled.
I second Pea Pod. We actually spend less (even with the delivery fee) because we only buy exactly what we need.
If I can do anything let me know. I’m home all day on Monday!
