So. queasy. I feel so awful, I don’t know how I can get through the next 2 months of it. (And I feel so, so, SO sorry for the women who have this the whole 9 months. I think sainthood isn’t too lofty a reward for those women.) This morning as soon as I got up, I ate saltines and ginger ale and banana, but I’m still on the verge of actual barfing. I feel tired and achy all over. Usually I get the twins dressed right after they have their breakfast, but today I barely felt like I could lift them from their high chairs into their play yard. Then I sat in the recliner for awhile, feeling yucky.

I don’t even want to read. I don’t want to go anywhere or do anything. I don’t want to pick up toddlers. All I want to do is WHINE.

I keep looking for more solutions to the problem, but my conclusion is that there is no solution. People mention ginger, and peppermint, and a whole bunch of other things, but the consensus seems to be that nothing really works on “morning sickness” except time: getting past it.

Here is what I am really wondering: Is this the usual nausea I have with every pregnancy? Or is this the more intense variety I had when I was expecting the twins?
