I miss food. :(

My very first bump discussion, and its just so I can complain about my morning sickness. Morning Sickness is such a stupid name, because its really all day, feeling like crap, can't eat anything, but then i feel worse for not eating queasiness. I feel weak and shaky all of the time, but I just want to gag every time I think about eating. I've yet to throw up, and I know some of you moms-to-be are probably spending most of your time over a toilet, so I really shouldn't complain. But I'm tired of people treating me like I'm just being picky because I don't want to eat kale and onion pizza.  Just looking for sympathy here, as I already know all of the advice about what to eat to settle my stomach, ginger, eating small meals throughout the day, etc.

Morning sickness is the cruelest misnomer... quite a few of us are hating it at the moment!

I definitely don't blame you for avoiding kale and onion pizza!

Feel free to jump in on the weekly symptoms thread, as that's where all the commiserating is going on.

Kale and onion pizza would sound bad even if I was not pregnant.

Right? lol

And thanks WinchesterGirl. I somehow missed the symptoms thread. I was wondering how in the world everyone was managing to talk about their pregnancies without at least bitching a little! Good to know I'm not the only one.

Sometimes you just need to vent and have someone listen! My mom is a 'fixer' so every time I vent, she comes up with all the solutions to my problem... If I heard one more time that taking small sips of ginger ale would cure all morning sickness and eating healthy vegetables every day would make me feel great, I was going to lose it! Just let me be miserable and complain about it for 5 minutes!

I'm right there with ya. So freaking miserable and so tired of it. I've been sick all day for almost 3 weeks now. I feel like people just think I'm being a baby. Let's pray the 2nd trimester brings some relief!

I hear you. It's complete torture and I'm miserable most of the day

I'm in the same boat as you. Today I exasperated my co workers because I could not think of anything that sounded good to eat. The thought of everything turned my stomach. I can't even handle the thought of chicken! In any form! And all day my whole body just craved lying down. Please be merciful second trimester!

I am the same way. I have lost 10lbs and the only things I can eat are cookies. The worst part is I had gestational diabetes last time and so by the time I am starting to feel better I am going to have to start watching what I eat.

I feel the same! Started around 5.5 weeks and I'm just past 10 weeks now. I'm down 5-6 lbs. Never actually throw up, but a lot of gagging and dry heaving. Nauseous all day long. I feel like I'm never going to enjoy food ever again.
