OMG, those things are wonderful but they gave me gas like I've never had before. I think I could have powered a hot air balloon after eating those!

ummm...ladies, I teach my kids that mommys don't toot.

today is the WORST morning sickness I've had yet....I'm just miserable...I had about 1/2 of a smoothie before I got too queasy. Then I had a carrot (a baby one) and about three bites of a strawberry palenta popsicle (from Schwans). Now I'm burping & trying not to barf.

Hope it gets better fast... One of my friends ended up getting shots to help her keep food down. If it stays that bad you might want to ask about that.

Yuck! I'm sorry. I was really sick with my daughter (threw up at least 2-3x a day for the first 18 weeks), but luckily this one has been a LOT better! I only throw up about every 2-3 days now.

Good luck - hope it gets better soon!

My doc told me, No liquids on an empty stomach, it would just make the nausea worse, and he was right. I would have Fruit or a bagle before drinking in the morning, and felt a lot better.

Owww... This is the second time I've woken up in the morning with the feeling like someone was punching me in the hip all night. I switch sides constantly while I'm sleeping to try and reduce it but no matter what I start getting that feeling and if I managed to sleep for an extended period of time on one side it hurts for hours the next morning.

Any advise?

Unfotunately it only gets worse. I use a pregnancy Pillow called a snoogle, but any pillow between your knees should help. when it would get really bad I would take 2 regular strength Tylenol. Just remember, it will all be worth it in the end.

I already have a snoodle... I'll try the Tylenol. Ninteen more weeks to go...

I haven't slept in my bed since 24 weeks because it would hurt my hips or my back. I've been sleeping on the couch, which gives me calf and foot cramps, lol. 32 1/2 weeks, not that much longer for me.

I'm lucky enough to have a Sleep Number bed...the BEST investment we've made, IMO.
