"morning" sickness

For every woman who has ever been pregnant, they already know. Its like a big secret that you only find out about when you experience it. Well, I feel like I need to spill the beans-"Morning" sickness, is more like "All Day" sickness. I'm sure I'm going to loose my woman card for this, but I just find that name a little misleading, which irritates me, because at the moment, everything irritates me.

To be honest, I haven't had it all that bad. I thought I might be one of those women who never felt sick the entire time. I was 8 weeks pregnant without a twinge of queasiness. I almost thought there might be something wrong with me until the nurse I saw said, " no honey, don't worry about it, you're just one of the lucky ones." Well, I like the way that sounds. So I'm superior in just one more way, I am a Logan. Later I saw the doctor, who informed me that I was, in fact, 6 weeks pregnant, not 8, and that I might start feeling a little sick. I almost laughed when she said that. Obviously, she doesn't know me, and know I'm one of the "lucky ones".

Prov. 16:18: "Pride is before a crash, and a haughty spirit before stumbling."

Even though, the evening before that appointment I was feeling a little sick, I just chalked it up to my normal sensitive stomach. Most definitely not morning sickness. I was in for big upset. Soon I began feeling a little sicker, a little more often, until I was sick all day long. Fortunately, I don't get very sick. I just have a slight queasy feeling all day long. Sometimes its a little better, sometimes its a little worse. Its more of an annoyance than anything else. I found little, semi-cures: never have an empty stomach and someone recommended Preggie Pops, candies made just for morning sickness.

I'm soon to be entering my tenth week or pregnancy and the sickness should began to ease. Just one more reason I can't wait for the 2nd trimester.
