Have you considered asking him to help you out more? Rib your back maybe get you some crackers or bread in the morning to help tryand settle your stomach? It sounds like he wants to be there for you and help. Just tell him it feels like a bad stomach bug and it drains you a lot. Sometimes making it something he can relate to helps men understand better. I do hope you feel better soon

Totally agree ^^you are meant to be on cloud nine. I know being sick doesn't help at all but look forward to yr bundle. Try going to bed with a full tummy that way youl feel beta in the morning. I was once told if yr sick yr baby is healthy as they are taking everything that makes you well. The sad and down feeling will come and go through out yr pregnancy so hang in there I promise its worth it.

Chin up, things will get better. Go out and spoil yourself abit, go to the movies. Go do something that makes u feel good. I'm 17 weeks pregnant with my second and both pregnancy I have been sick, vomiting just about every morning, it does suck and it does take it outta u, but be strong because once bubs is born u will completely have forgotten about it.
