Rough Day

I have been so lucky throughout this pregnancy. All my symptoms have been mild, I've had almost no morning sickness at all except for an occasional incident while brushing my teeth.

Sunday night before going to bed I started to get a headache. It got worse until it became a full blown migraine, the worst I have ever experienced. I couldn't sleep at all, I was just sitting in bed crying from the pain. I couldn't keep any food or liquid down, as soon as I took a sip I would be running to the bathroom. My husband went to the store at 3 am to get tylenol for me, I took it and kept it down for 15 mins before getting sick again. I think that let me get just enough medicine in me to fall asleep for two hours. The morning wasn't any better, I still couldn't keep anything down. Finally at 3 in the afternoon, my doctor had called in some anti-nausea medication and a pregnancy-safe migraine medicine. As soon as I took those I started feeling better. I hope I don't have to deal with that anymore, but now at least I have medication on hand that will help.

In other news, I'm wearing maternity pants today! I don't have a huge bump yet, but my pants were just getting too tight. I'm so glad I sucked it up and bought some, because I'm so much more comfortable now. Yay for stretchy pants!
