Blurgh...

First of all I hope all the mums and mums to be across the pond had a great mothers day yesterday. Last night as I cuddle up in bed for another nauseous night I realised that not only did I not feel as sick but a dull pain, not an ache or pulling started poking me in my left side about ovary area. It wasn't painful enough for me to freak out so when it past I drifted off to sleep but when I got up to escort the 2year old back to bed, at 3 freaking am, I realised I didn't feel sick at all.
Score?
Not for this anxiety filled pregnant woman.
I was convinced my hormones were dropping and I was going to miscarry.
By 8am I stood corrected as I found myself crying on the bathroom floor after attempting to eat (stupid me) morning sickness has officially kicked my butt, already.
I hadn't managed to keep anything down and it was a mission just getting fluids into me, today I had eaten a little breakfast but it soon decided to make another appearance.
I had so wanted to make it through this pregnancy without anti sickness tablets but I should have already known from my last two battles with this dreaded symptom that it never ends well.
I refused to take tablets with my son until I was rushed to my GP with fainting spells and he said I was near exhaustion and dehydration from throwing up all day and all night and had two choices. Hospitalization or tablets and 24hrs rest.
24hrs later after taking my first tablet I ate a decent meal and drank my weight in lucozade. I took one a day for over three months and my son was born at a stonking 9lbs and aced all of his newborn tests.
My second pregnancy didn't end well and I had attempted not to take anything for that either despite being given the tablets again. I hardly used them and was so sick I lost a stone and a half in just over a month and eventually I lost the baby.
I kept how bad my sickness was affecting my own health wrapped up, why? Because I was made to feel bad by another mum for taking any type of drug while pregnant.
I'm a stupid stupid person and although I will never know if any of that contributed to the loss is beyond me ever knowing and will always be on my mind.
Its only been 48hrs of the arrival of this sickness and I'm not taking the risk of my health this time when there is no documented risk of taking these tablets prescribed to mothers every few minutes.
This is my choice.
I've had some on standby as I knew I wouldn't be able to get to the drs at short notice, I was right too, the quickest appointment I could get was next Monday!!!
My surgery sucks!
Thank god I think ahead as I'm sure I'd be in hospital before that appointment came around.

So in a lull of the vomiting storm I took a pill and guess what, no more pukey pukey! I still feel super rough though. I managed to eat some peanut butter and I'm trying to drink but I very aware that I'm not popping off for a wee as much. Slightly concerned about that... Not sure if I'm dehydrated or something is wrong.

I really can't wait to find out if everything is okay.
Hopfully I'll be back to my upbeat self again in no time then.

Hope you feel better I am going through it right now as well. I dont feel interested in eating or drinking either, the joys of pregnancy! I wish you a happy and healthy 9 months.

Thank you all. It was another rough night but with a 2year old a mothers work is never done so I must get up and get on with my day.

I'm sorry you are having a rough go of it! Try to stay hydrated!

Waiting truly sucks. So glad you had something to give you some relief and hope that this week flies for you!

Unfortunately not, here in the UK you have to see a dr for all prescriptions first and get checked over unless they specifically give you it on repeat. Which they won't until I'm past 8 wks. Trying to drink and not looking forward to cooking dinner

On the off chance that you didn't have any of the pills on hand, and couldn't get in to see your doctor any sooner, would they not just call you a prescription for them in to your pharmacy? That sounds crazy. Hope you get some food down and liquids. Don't want you to end up at the hospital for dehydration!
