Wonder drug

My stomach has been hurting pretty much non-stop for over a week. I get brief respites, but they are normally very very brief. This morning I woke up to the worst stomach upset so far. On the way to work I bought Altoids Rasberry Sours because I was told that sour hard candy might help. Dude. It’s a fucking miracle. I feel so much better. I can even get up and wander around! Sweet.

It’s worth pointing out that despite feeling nauseous and exhausted constantly I am overall in very good spirits. I’m grateful for anything that looks like confirmation of pregnancy. 🙂 There is also at least some link between major morning sickness and a lower chance of miscarriage. I’ll take it.

    spouse find it useful to never let herself get too hungry.
    she’d even snack in the middle of the night to avoid morning hunger.

    seemed to help her.

    Spouse also found that she had “morning sickness” when she got hungry, and so needed to remember to eat before she actually got hungry. Seems like it’s called “morning sickness” because folks are generally hungry in the morning, nothaving eaten all night… maybe everyone knows this, but it was news to me. 🙂

    In any case, happy pregnancy, yay!
