1st Trimester

No No No No No!

I have only felt mild nausea after eating until today.  I keep burping up my lunch that I ate 6 hours ago and the thought of food makes me hot and sweaty.  The problem is that my husband's father is visiting and we are all going out to eat in a few hours.  We still haven't told family yet and I am afraid that I might get sick at dinner.  I don't know if it's psychosomatic and I am really ok or if I am really going to be sick.  I have considered making myself throw up before we go just in case that would help, you know, in case lunch is just sitting there being mean to me.  I have also considered saying that my sinues are giving me a headache and staying home, but that just seems ungracious.

  • Actually throwing up might make you feel better.  I know it sound gross but I have a very easy gag reflex and when I was feeling very queasy I would just kind of gag a little and it would come out (TMI I know).  But once I could get it out, I felt way better.

    Just my little 2cents.  :)

  • Throwing up might make it worse.  I know once I start it's hard to stop & it just leaves a nasty ting in my throat no matter how much water i drink after.
  • Throwing up pregnant is different than throwing up drunk or sick :) You feel So much better after pregnant throw up. I always eat about an hour after barfing.

    I'd go- just eat light and blame a headache or a HUGE catered lunch at work earlier :)

  • I would also recommend trying not to eat a lot when you go out.  I don't have morning sickness yet with this pregnancy but with my son, when I went out to eat and ate a normal size meal, I usually threw it up.  Buffets were a big no no.  Just eat a little and pack up the rest for left overs.  You can say you had a big lunch.

  • Do not MAKE yourself throw up. 
  • Well, I had tried, but nothing happened.  I took a bath.  Didn't help.  We got to the restaurant.  I ordered a steak.  I suddenly felt better. 

    That was an awesome steak.

    I don't normally eat steak.

    That was an awesome steak.
