I’ve gone three full days without throwing up, and I don’t want to jinx anything here, but I think I might be getting over my pregnancy sickness. I’m no longer convinced that an alien has moved into my belly; it might actually be a human fetus.
The funny thing is that I actually considered becoming a surrogate mother when I was pregnant with Liam. It was just that easy. I never called in sick to work, never threw up, never had cravings. This time I’ve had all of those things plus killer headaches every day that make the nausea seem like a walk in the park.
My hopes for my future family have been to have Liam and two girls, but if this is the difference between being pregnant with a boy vs. a girl, I think one girl will be plenty.

Sounds like a girl. Just wait, once they come out their even more high maintenance!
Ps- I get crazy headaches too, and was convinced that tylenol was a scheme. Then my doc told me I could take advil until I was 20 wks, which has been a lifesaver. You could try asking your doctor if there's anything else you can take.
Sorry Kim.
I hope it gets better really soon.
Girls are a lot of fun though.
It'll be worth it no matter what.
I know that doens't help now though.
It only works a year from now.
I'm so sorry! I know exactly what you are talking about. But at least for me the vomit and the headaches were not with the SAME baby! Sooo sorry! You are my hero.
I'm so sorry. Do you take anything for the nausea? With Charlotte I took half a unisom each night. Works like a charm, but you're tired the next day. If it gets too much you could ask your doctor about it.
