just want to cry...

I am 8+4 weeks and on 3 different meds just to be able to somewhat function in a day. I can't eat or drink anything without being miserable. I've cried because I feel helpless and miserable. I know im not getting enough fluids which is causing cramping and worries me. But just cant keep it down. Im getting so frustrated and I start back to work on Wednesday (im a teacher) but not sure how im going to make it through a day of little ones!

Hopegully it will go away, try not to worry about that yet!  I hate that first 3 months, I love the blessing of being pregnant, but I always feel like a lazy misserable mess.  Good luck back in school, that would be so hard!

Spiceisle I've head every trick and ways of easing it but seldom work! Don't get me wrong I am so very excited and happy to be pregnant but hard to be happy when I can't move! I fear it not going away after week 12..many people in my family continued to be sick through their whole pregnancy :/ I just hope my job doesn't make it that much worse. .but not promising when I'm an elementary teacher!

I so know how you feel rotsi. Its bad believe me I'm 18wk and still can't eat or drink anything but white bread and ice cold water. I had to be off work for an entire month cause I started loosing weight and even when i returned was put on moderate duties. My poor husband has to do everything by himself even cook. So my dear believe me I know the feeling and everyone gives suggestions nothing works and tell you it will pass soon I truly hope in your case it does cause I'm 18wk and still at it.

Thanks ladies!  Im on zofran and rhiditine which is an acid reducer.zofran works only 50% of the time. Im just feeling down bc my husband has done so much with the house and working while I lay on the couch praying to have a good day.

Saltine crackers throughout the day. Try to.keep a little something on your tummy. Are you on zofran? If not, call your dr and let him/her know how bad off you are and you need something. Sprite/gingerale, stay on BRAT diet (banana, rice, applesauce, toast) when its super bad. Hang in there!

Hang in there rotsi I'm only 5+2 Weeks today and I'm so nauseated I can't even eat and the I've lost weight.  I've heard that weight loss early on is normal for some. However I drank some gingerale yesterday and it truly helped with my nausea.  I think I will keep a can with me every where I go. Lol
