It's been a few weeks since I did an update. I have been feeling pretty awful, but luckily I have good days.
I am down to one medication twice a day rather than two 8 times a day! One of the meds I was on was actually making my nausea worse (so glad I figured that out!) and I switched to a different version of the other one and it works WAY better.
As of now mornings and nights are usually pretty awful, and sometimes the whole day is bad. But usually as long as I eat pretty constantly I'm ok. I'm still nauseous all the time but I can leave the house and do stuff.
This pregnancy has been pretty different from Olivia's. With Olivia I threw up all the time and lost a bunch of weight but I only felt nauseous right before I threw up. With this one, with the help of meds, I don't throw up very often, but I am nauseous all the time! I can't decide which one is worse.
With Olivia I never really had cravings and smells didn't bother me. With this one, before I got super sick, I was having crazy cravings all the time. And by crazy I mean I would crave something and it was all I could think about until I got it. And my sense of smell is out of control, everything smells, even things that don't. It sucks.
With the help of medication I am almost back up to my pre-pregnancy weight, which took a long time with Olivia so that's good!
Overall, it's been rough but better than I expected and I'm hoping since I am 11 weeks that in a few weeks I'll be feeling normal again, or I'll be like my mom and be sick the whole time (please no).
