How to cure nausea, seriously!?

What I am learning this pregnancy is that for every symptom you have, every cold you get and every pain you have, there is nothing to help! Basically SUCK IT UP SISTA! The medical profession sides on the side of CAUTION. Caution from being sued! We all hear the stories of our parents and the horrible things they took and did while pregnant with us! My god our parents should be ashamed! Not seriously. I wish I lived in the world free from fear!

My nausea has been bad this pregnancy. Sure I had the nausea last pregnancy but I was in a different mind set. I thought the nausea was kind of exciting and totally pregnant thing to have. This pregnancy (my 3rd) I want nothing to do with it, I have it 24 7 it even wakes me up in the middle of the night. I lay in bed and pray for it to go away. I even put one foot on the floor thinking that will help. You know like when you drink to much and you want to make the spinning stop! I would try anything....so I searched the internet for home remedies and cures. What I found my favorite top 5!

1. GINGER - Put a little fresh ginger in with hot water or in sparkling water or sprinkle on some food. It's a traditional remedy, but be cautioned consuming to much could cause extreme diarrhea and even miscarriage! WHAT1? I will admit I tried it and yes ended up with extreme diarrhea! Won't go back to ginger.

2.EAT Small Frequent meals - Several articles out there suggest eating small frequent meals several times a day. They even suggest you put crackers next to your bed and eat a few before you sit up! They go on to suggest that eating high protein snacks such as beef jerky, tuna salad and cheese will help curb that nausea. However, do not eat more then 6 oz of tuna a week or you may give your baby mercury poision! Don't eat to much cheese or dairy because that could add to the nausea and even constipation. Read the lable make sure that cheese is pasturized! It is super important to watch how many calories you take in because you shouldn't gain more then a half a pound per week!  So I guess we nibble on food like rabbits?

3.Avoid greasy or spicy food - Makes since right but in the same article they advise you eat what you crave because your body will tell you what it wants! Even if it's the spicy burritos. Seriously!? I went to Taco Bell, giving into my cravings (not my better judgment)! I was miserable for two days! Taco Bell is evil on pregnant women...or just me!!!

4. Drink plenty of fluid - but be sure to do this in small amounts through out the day. Avoid drinking while eating or snacking. Wait 20 minutes after eating to drink and avoid eating for 20 minutes after you drink! UH!? Is their an app for this!? I can't keep track of that timing. I think my head is spinning...oh no just more nausea.

5. Open a window - Breath fresh air sounds simple and smart/ Oh,but, yes there is eaven a caution to the fresh air! High humidity, extreme high temps or even extreme low temps could add to the nausea. Stay clear of aeras with lots of exhaust fumes or cigarette smoke! For those of us that live in city or highly populated areas...don't breath!

Seriously, how the hell do we cope! Their is nothing you can take without a caution! SUCK IT UP SISTA, you are pregnant pray it ends after birth!


Oh, and if this is your first time to my blog, I recommend you start at welcome...the first post. It will explain a lot....well maybe just the purpose of this blog!

The Road to Crazy Town starts with a dream.

One of the side effects of pregnancy is crazy insane whacked out dreams. I mean intense if you have been pregnant before you know what I am talking about. With all my pregnancies I have had very vivid memorable dreams. However, last nights dream takes the cake! I started off with the zombie apocalypse....stranded in a random house with zombies trying to get in the house. However, the only working bathroom was in the house next door, so you had to sneak across an alley and make it into the bathroom! Weird. Not so crazy right ? Where the dream gets crazy is when the dancing chicken legs come into play! Seriously, chicken legs you buy from a store to cook...they were dressed in fancy socks and dancing! Why I have no fucking clue but I woke up cracking up. Craziest thing! I think this really only means I am on my way to crazy town, as a friend of mine told me! She has three children so I will take this as a warning and truth!!!

We are all back...me, the alien and the new pregnancy!!!!

So I realize I have not written in almost two years which leads me to believe that my Alien counterpart did finally take over. The rest of my pregnancy went well. No complications to report unless you call throwing up during contraction a complication or the Anesthesiologist not getting the epederial in correctly and feeling everything that happens with out the use of your legs a complication. I believe the moment I returned was when my new baby boy was placed on my chest and I got to hold him close for the first time and see him. The Pregnancy journey ended and everything that happened the previous 9 months turned into a blur. My husband will not admit I did anything outlandish he just tells me he loves me......such a liar!

I wish I would have continued on with the blog through the weeks after the birth because those first few weeks with a new baby when your life gets turned upside down and you don't know the difference between night and day not to mention what day it is. Heck you can't even remember if you even showered. Those are the true days to be documented. 

Well good news! I am pregnant again and I intend to start right back up and hopefully follow through to the first several months after the baby is born. I hear something happens to a mother once she hits three children. What it is we will find out together. Ready set go!!!!

Ok I give, where the hell is that alien Bitch! She can have my body right now I would be more then happy to escape reality! Women who love to be pregnant I could kill. "Those" women are insane because who in their right mind loves, Cramping of the legs, Heartburn, Diarrhea, constipation Yeast Infection and hemorrhoids. Seriously where is that bitch take over my body so I can live in the world where this does not exist!!!!

Don't get me wrong I know it's a miracle that I am creating a child and I personally know women who would love the chance to be pregnant but lets be honest your body is put through hell for 9 months and then you spend 4 years trying to get it back to the way it was when your were 25. I never had Heartburn till I got pregnant, I never had a hemorrhoid....and then the yeast infection. Seriously?! I had UTI's with my first pregnancy and I think I much prefer having a UTI then a YI! It's 7 days of BS that will make you never want to be a women.

As soon as I can get my restless legs to relax I will try to lay down comfortably and wait for my Alien Counterpart to take over. Sorry to my husband I love you very much but this is for the best, we will both be better off.

Ready to give in!

I can't fight anymore. I am quickly losing this battle. I must fight on for my family sake!



There are days now I don't know which direction I am going in and I feel like I am being a bitch to everyone. I want this Blog to be somewhat funny and enlightening but I feel this heavy dark cloud weighing me down and I just want to crawl in bed and sleep most days. This feels like depression but it should be the happiest time of my life right?


OK enough I am stepping back and taking control....Bitch better back off because she ain't welcome here! I will not let you do this to me. I am in control head up deep breath focus!

Her she comes

The Bitch wants out and I am having a hard time keeping her at bay! I may even be suffering from turrets syndrom because I find myself yelling at people! I am somewhat a patient driver but lately I will catch myself yelling at someone on the road. Half the time it's my 4 year old son saying "what happened mom". That's when I realize, OMG what did I say.

I am loosing self control. I think my husband is even seeing it because he has been extra nice and also avioding me. Part of me just wants to let loose and start yelling and screaming. Why I have no idea but it's a strong urge and I want to do it!!!! I have to stay strong I am only 14 weeks I can not let her take over not yet. But it's getting close! BEWARE to all those I love and I am sorry now for what I may soon be incapable of controlling.
