I guess I'm the textbook right now b/c I literally puke every single morning and it is disgusting! But I will say that I am soo happy that I am able to do this in my own home and not at work. I think I would die. I hate vomitting and I just don't think I could do it anywhere else. I'm actually kind of thankful it happens mostly in the mornings since I am home!
Re: How do people who work deal w/ morning sickness??
I was sick for the whole 9 months with both boys- I threw up everywhere- work, the mall, even target!

let's see, my mornings would usually start with me basically laying down in the bathtub and letting the water from the shower run over me. I would then force myself to get dressed and put on makeup - totally bare minimum stuff. Then I usually puked right before leaving the house (usually late ;P) - the kitchen sink, bushes outside the house, wherever was available. Just in case, I drove to work with a bucket on my passenger seat just in case. Oh, and I DROVE to work, which was not my normal routine - I was a public transportation girl usually (bus to metro), but I did NOT want to be the person who held up everyone's rush hour if I puked on the train and they had to halt all traffic to bring in hazmat crews ;P I then would suffer through the day - puked in trash cans in vacant offices because #1 - I didn't want to be found out and #2 the bathroom was too far from my desk. I sometimes would go and lay on the floor in vacant offices, as well. I would sit in meetings and pray I didn't have to go running out the door. I couldn't eat much - I made a package of ramen noodles (just the noodles) everyday and ate popsicles, the only 2 things I could keep down.
I was SOO happy when I got past 12 weeks because I finally could let people know why I looked like death. People were starting to talk about me and if it had gone on much longer, they were ready to do an intervention for anorexia or depression or both.
It SUCKED and I was so happy for the days I worked at home where I could puke in peace.
