All day sickness!!!

Hi all!

I am not due for a Week 7 update until tomorrow when we have our scan (yay!) but thought I would dedicate a post to my ALL DAY sickness. The day after I wrote my blog last week saying I hadn't spewed yet... Boy was I wrong! I have spewed everywhere (including the sink in the bakery at work). I think it has something to do with my blood sugar levels since its a vicious cycle of feeling too ill to eat but knowing I have to feed Baby T and as soon as I get some food down I feel about 20% better ( which at this stage is an amazing feeling).

I flew back home this weekend and had to hide my illness from friends and family. This proved to be a lot more difficult than I had thought. I spewed on the plane and felt trapped like I couldn't escape! Mum and Dad picked me up and I couldn't wait to get home to eat. If I let myself get hungry then I feel alot worse. A BIG highlight was meeting our new little nephew Koby and cuddling him knowing his little cousin was in my belly the whole time.

I pretty much fainted onto the dressmaker when I was getting my wedding dress fitted. I came to with a scotch finger biscuit in my hand and couldn't get out of my dress fast enough. My whole body burnt up and the room started spinning! I ran across to the bakery and bought a pie that I ate in world record speed. I had eaten a big breakfast and a banana so have no idea what happened! I felt a tonne better after the pie which meant I could enjoy the rest of my night with very special friends.

Last part of the weekend was my Sunday breakfast- I ate before I left home because I have to eat within 5 minutes of waking or I feel terrible. My bag was heavy and the restaurant was up a huge hill. I over heated, felt faint and couldn't get stripped off fast enough when we got to the restaurant. I had terrible cramps in my belly which scared me and I started crying (hormones make me very emotional). Very hard to explain that to friends but they were trying to help me get undressed and get water in. About 10 minutes later I was back to normal. Crazy to think that our little grape sized baby can make me feel so ill. Work is getting harder and harder to hide with everybody asking if I am pregnant since I have to run to the bathroom or sit down and eat. I don't think they will be surprised in 6 weeks when I tell them. I have everything crossed that this sickness only last until 12 weeks ( or earlier if I am lucky). I can't wait to start enjoying the pregnancy so many people rave about because at the moment I am dreading waking up each morning because I know what the day holds.

Nick has been amazingly supportive these last couple of sick weeks and has been happy to have super easy dinners when all I can stomach is soup and toast. And picking up grilled chicken burgers when thats all I can imagine eating after I have spewed my lunch onto the back grass because I couldn't make the toilet in time.

Well I am off to curl up on the lounge and get some sleep before my midnight shift tonight. We can't wait until 4pm tomorrow when we get to see our little Baby T and see his or her heartbeat.

Love from Us (all 3 of us) xxoo
