Why Is It Called Morning Sickness?

Posted by lauramcintyre

I mean really how many people actually just suffer in the morning? . I actually thought today was going to be a good day as i felt fine this morning,  i took a nap with Rebecca and woke up feeling horrible.

Just now Eilidh is napping and i had promised Rebecca and Courtney we could bake cakes but instead i cannot move of the couch while they eat there way through the fruit bowl (not that i would mind if it was’t eating half an apple then starting a new one) and just plain destroying the place with paper. I have no energy to stop them as after all if there busy with that then i can sit and feel sorry for myself.

Can i please ask 2nd trimester to hurry up

    oh man, i hear you. i remember feeling just like that a few months back!

    now, i’m not sick. i’m just too big and exhausted to move off the couch as bean tears the house apart.

  2. Becca Said,

    Oh man I feel your pain. When I was pregnant with the twins I was nauseaus constantly. It never let up. I even had a hard time sleeping at night because of it, and being tired on top of it all didn’t help!

    You must think I’m stalking ya now with all these comments, you’re the first Scottish blogger I’ve met who isn’t seemingly trying to ’sell’ the highlands to the world! hehe

    Take care :)

    That’s a GOOD question - why the heck is it *morning* sickness?! I remember those early days of total exhaustion and aversion to all food…and I didn’t have other kiddos to chase. I hope it passes quickly for you.

  6. Dawn Said,

    With 3 of mine, I was nauseous all day long, for the whole pregnancy. It was starting out the same with the fourth and for some reason, I found out if I ate a piece of fruit in the morning (apple, grapes), it would go away. After 15 minutes or so, I could eat pretty much anything and I had so much energy the whole time.

  7. Dawn Said,

    I just wanted to let you know in case that works for you. I also tried not to eat carbs much in the morning (crackers made it worse). I had so much energy, I did a bunch of renovating and I couldn’t sit still much. It has carried over for the last 10 years when I eat the right things and avoid certain things. Experiment.
