Spent all yesterday vomiting. Nothing worked, including my tried and true Emetrol.
Got Zofran last night and have been sleeping since. Can't tell if I'm still sick or if it's just aches and pains from yesterday. Going to take another Zofran and go back to sleep cause if I'm sleeping, I'm not vomiting.

Oy, sorry to hear. I used to vomti all the time too. I learned to just suck on hard starlight mints or sip that mint flavored water (I forget what it is called) because for me, it was all that worked. But I agree. Sleeping is the best.
am sorry - not a fun way to spend any day. Hope you find something that works and this doesn't last toooo long.
Ughh that sucks. I am so sorry you're feeling so miserable. =( I hope that it starts to ease up soon ... poor thing!!
I'm so sorry you are puking, but I am so happy you are puking. I mean, well, you know what I mean, right? Holy shit, Jen. I think you're gonna have to give us all permission to get a little crazy here with you because this is just F-ing Awesome.
PS - hold off on firebombing your condo for more space. I think that's a decision you might want to sleep on for a bit.
I hope you feel better and soon!
I hope you feel better soon.
OMG how did I miss this very exciting news?! YOU ARE PUKING! I am so happy for you. SMOOCHES!!! You need to email me with all the details!
I am so glad you got the Zofran - it really saved me that first 14 or so weeks...
Ugh, I'm sorry.
Hope the Zofran makes it less yucky.
That Zofran is good stuff, I tell ya!
Sorry about the puking. I know it sucks.
So there with you. Ugh. But. Yay.
yuck! I hope the ofran helps *hugs*
OMG...how did I miss this?! CONGRATULATIONS!!! Holy freaking crap, this is awesome!
I'm sorry you are sick though, the Zofran was a God-send for me. Hope it helps soon. Sour candy also worked for me - other than that just hang in there...the MSness only lasts a few weeks.
((hugs))
Sleep sleep sleep! Go away nausea!
(btw, I'm terribly late to the congratulations party - but I'm so excited for you!)
It's sucks that you're feeling so so sick, but I'm hoping it's all because of a really strong little bub getting all settled in and growing like crazy. I hope you can take it easy and sleep away for as long as you need to. Take care.
Even though I have been a bad blogging friend. That sucks.
Hope you are doing well. Many hugs.
