So - I am feeling a bit better now thankfully!

Since Monday morning I have not really been ablt to eat or drink much of anything with out exiting too quickly. So having to deal with contant trips to the bathroom, on top of being almost 27 weeks pregnant - so no Pepto for me :( and I have my daughter who thankfully did not get sick and my husband was out of town...

I am just so shot... I was able to keep some light food in me this evening, but have no energy at all. Last night I moved my daughter's bed time up by 1/2 hour. She really did not complain too much... Can't do it tonight though, she is not as tired.

I also need to work tomorrow, becuase I already missed 2 days... esaier since I awork from home, but takes more energy and brain power than I have... never mind that I also have not cleaned in two days... ugh!

So how do you folks cope in a situation like this? Looking for any and all advice...

Thanks from one sick and tired Mama!

What can I do next?

Is there anyone that can watch your daughter tomorrow? Even a half day? That might help you focus a bit.
Feel better!

Just take it slow tomorrow. One thing done and then rest. Don't push it or you will need twice as long to recover.

Sorry you're not feeling well.

You poor thing!

First, call your OB and see if there is something you can do or take. A friend of mine wore those sea sickness bands. She said that really helped.

Second, have you tried protein drinks? I didn't get as sick as you seem to be, but food was not my friend. One thing that helped me was Carnation Breakfast Essentials. For some reason I was able to keep that down, so it was my goto when I wasn't able to eat anything. You could probably try Ensure or Special K drinks or even Slim Fast. They really might give you a little energy and help you get through the day.

Good luck!

I am so sorry you are not feeling well. Along with the other suggestions I lived on saltines. Having a few in my tummy seemed to help - it's hard though when you're already feeling nasty and stuffing a cracker down your throat!
