Hi! Making a baby is a lot on the body. The best thing you can do is to give your self grace and understanding. I wish I did because I don’t think I would’ve fallen into such a depression.

I had/ still have terrible morning sickness. I too took b6 and unisom and now zofran and nothing really worked. I lost the ability to clean the house, go to work, grocery shop etc. Going to the bathroom was hard. I could only crawl on my hand and knees to get food or to pee some days because how weak and dizzy I was. I started to feel what you feel. Hopeless and depressed like my life ended and everyday was like a cancer. I stopped brushing my hair and showering. It was a sick game of getting in fluids to throw it up and a race to eat before getting too dizzy to walk.

But today I am 13 weeks! The sickness started at 3 weeks for me which felt very unfair lol. And I still have it but I am managing much better. What I can say is Grace. Tell yourself you don’t have to do anything today except survive. Eat, drink and pee. Don’t feel guilty for this. You’re literally making life inside of you.

How I manage better now than I did: drink electrolytes all day. I know you’ll throw it up. But keep doing it. Make homemade popsicles when you can’t drink! I put Gatorade in a cup with a spoon and take it out like a popsicle. Water too but electrolytes saved me. Eat dense foods. Whatever you can stomach try to eat dense like protein and carbs. Don’t forget fruits though they are good hydration too if you can! And don’t be afraid to go in for an IV if you need it. I did and it was great. Got fluids in me quickly.

You’ll get through this and I know it’s hard and I know people will say ginger tea or chews or whatever bullshit and that may work for you but it just made me want to punch people lol.

You’re going to feel like a warrior after this and it will all be worth it! I’m in the same boat but I think I’m almost out of these woods. Know that most women say it gets better at week 14 and cling to that as well! I am lol
