Jen's sick.
She's sick and nauseous most of the day ( there seems to be a bizarre window of time between 9:00 PM and 12:00 AM that she's NOT nauseous ). This has been going on for almost a week.
It sucks.
A bunch.
I get irritated at the never-ending nausea ( totally unfair, I know ) and I have to go outside and smoke a lot so I don't say insensitive things that will hurt her feelings and that I'll later regret saying anyway.
So constant is her sickness, I actually went to the "Natural" section in HEB today and flipped through a "Healing Yourself Naturally" book ( there was a beach and some vaginas or something on the cover ) and then bought ginger tablets and some sort of tea that's supposed to make her not want to vomit every second of the day.
My fingers are crossed.

Michael,
Why are you irritated because she is sick? That does not make any sense to me. Also, always check with a professional before giving her any herbal remedies. The last thing you want to do is eat when you feel like you are going to throw up but it's one of the only things that help.(Carbs such as crackers or bread) If the nausea isn't controlled by eating then call the Dr and get some Phenergan. It knocks you out but if she's sick at night it won't matter anyway. Give her some phenergan and put her to bed. Hang in there. I hope this will work for you it sucks I remember. The good thing is....it goes away after the 1st trimester.

Oops I just realized I read your blog wrong. She's sick all of the time except at night. Well that's a problem. If the carbs don't work then there's a really expensive rx the Dr can give her. Hopefully she has insurance. I can't remember what it's called but her Dr will know. My friend was so sick throughout her entire pregnany she lost 22 pounds in the first 6 months. She never actually gained any weight. The pill worked wonders for her but she was a rare case.
quit smoking now or i will fucking snap your neck.
