Mamas with m/s AND a LO

Who's with me? Any survival tips/stories?

Yesterday was really bad, and I was just lying in bed thinking, "What am I going to do when DH goes back to work tomorrow? What if this m/s keeps getting worse?" It is SO hard to take care of an almost 10 month old baby and have morning sickness.

Oh, and the super strong sense of smell is killing me. I feel like my whole house smells like dirty dishes, dirty diapers, spoiled formula, and mold. But my house is really not that dirty. DH didn't smell anything this morning before he left for work. So, it's definitely just me.

DD keeps crawling after me, chanting "Mama, Mama" and wanting me to play with her. Time for some more independent playtime?

    I don't have any tips, but wanted to let you know I feel your pain! I feel so guilty and like such a whiner! But I can't make myself do much besides drag myself from my bed to work and back to bed...this weekend I spent pretty much the whole time laying on the couch while DD played on the floor with her toys by herself! :(

    I'm starting to feel a little queasy, but it's usually later in the day and not too bad (similar to DS and hoping it will stay this way).  Unfortunately he's older than 10 mo and on the go and into trouble (20 mo.), so besides tv there isn't much I can do to get a break (he doesn't nap w/o me).  Can you get outside for a walk?  Pool time in the yard?  Hope you feel better soon!

    Last week was really hard for me- it was a struggle to get from bed to the couch! This weekend, I started feeling a little better. Still nauseated, but not nearly as bad. I'm praying that that isn't a sign of something wrong, but that God's just giving me a break!

    You've heard it a million times, but try to keep a little food in your stomach all the time- I think it helps. Saltines have become my new staple- although, I DID eat Jimmy Johns yesterday and it was SO GOOD.  My first "meal" in a week.

    Hope you start feeling better!

    Pick up a pack of Sea Bands (can get them at local drug stores).  They have been my life saver for nausea!

    No tips, but I have to say I admire all you moms! I can't even imagine taking care of more than myself and my dogs right now! DH is on his own.
