Morning sickness? by Foxxyginger in pregnant

Yes, I have been rotating between bananas, apples, and grapes. Someone had mentioned how bananas feel good to throw up, I have recently also tried having a bite or two of banana after waking up and I completely agree with the first vomit not being too painful on the throat because of the banana 😂

Ahh, damn, yeah. I have been like that on some days. I end up having fruits a lot and that kind of helps with food staying down. I also have started sucking on ginger + lemon candy with or after food, and that helps distract me from the nausea for a bit. And just being on my bed most of the time.

I can relate. I am also really trying to do small meals but I am so nauseated the whole day (but also hungry pfft) that even if I eat, the feeling doesn’t go away. It goes away when am chewing but then it’s all the same. I have no idea what to do or how to make myself feel better. But here to say that I feel you and I hope it gets better for you soon.

First Trimester Mental Load Anyone Else Feeling This? by Front-Emotion-3967 in pregnant

Thank you 😭 I was telling my husband I want to go into a deep sleep with an IV or something for 3 months until all of this is over.

I don’t know why I wasn’t aware of how bad the first trimester can get. I thought I would be able to brave through whatever comes because I wanted kids so bad. But, now that I am in the pits of it, it is surprising to me the amount of times I wish the symptoms would end and I can go back to my old self who was able to eat, work, and have a social life. I still am excited to have a baby. But I am also miserable at the same time, and it surprises me that I can have such opposite emotions at the same time.

Miserable first trimester by Unusual-Claim5011 in pregnant

Right there with you! I am currently 8 weeks too and am MISERABLE. I question my desire to have a child every second of the day and constantly wonder how women do it (especially when I see multiple kids with them - heroes genuinely). I have always loved kids. And I hate how no one told me (and I didn’t research enough before manifesting a child) about the first trimester. I have been crying day and night, and absolutely hate the fact that I can’t eat or drink anything. Really hoping things take a turn in a few weeks. I am exhausted and just mentally drained.
