For the first time in 16 years... at 10w3d pregnant.......

I threw up

I think i jinxed myself when I told everyone how great I was feeling I ended up taking my prenatal vitamin in the middle of the night, so I'm thinking maybe it was from that since it was on a relatively empty stomach

I know I have no right to complain since I know there are so many of you who have battled horrible m/s and have thrown up countless times this pregnancy.. so my heart seriously goes out to you

This may sound ridiculous but since I hadn't thrown up in over half my life, I always prided myself on having a strong stomach and honestly believed I wasn't capable of throwing up. I just always thought I had a super strong stomach and would not be the type to throw up ever I feel so stupid for thinking that now ... and so afraid this is going to happen again any minute since I keep ranging from feeling better to feeling sooo again Ugh. This is the worst feeling ever.

UGH throwing up is the worst, I'm sorry that you had to wake up to that. I can't believe it's been so long since you have though, that is awesome.

Whenever I took my prenatal late at night I always got sick the next morning. Try eating something that is heavy in carbs right away to get something in your stomach with the vitamin. I should do the trick.

Throwing up is the worst!!! After this pregnancy, I am now a pro at it!!

I can't believe you went so long w.o being sick... that is awesome!!!

Hope you feel better soon!!!!
I HATE, HATE, HATE throwing up....after these pregnancies however, I have no choice!
I would definitely not take that vitamin again in the middle of the night, that definitely could have upset your stomach!

Re: For the first time in 16 years... at 10w3d pregnant.......

Awww so so sorry you had to go through that!!

Don't feel bad it happened -- it definitely sounds like it was taking the vitamin on an empty stomach that did it.

You can't control these things, so don't worry about it having happened. It's great you have such a strong stomach! I'm the type of person who gets dizzy and nauseous sitting in the back seat of a car or on a coach bus... so I always knew I'd have it bad when I was PG. Some people talk about the 21 days of Christmas, I had the 21 days of vomiting... but I've felt great for 4 days now, so that's huge!

You could just pretend it didn't happen. Like one "do-over" so you can keep your record going. I won't tell!!

I am seriously keeping my big mouth shut from now on until this baby is out!! Ughhhhh

Re: For the first time in 16 years... at 10w3d pregnant.......

dw I was sick the last 3 weeks of my first trimester- I had only one night that I threw up . After that I started to get better.

And btw- god bless all of you who feel that way for the entire first tri or even your pregnancy- I honestly think nausea is the worst feeling in the world. The WORST!

Re: For the first time in 16 years... at 10w3d pregnant.......

I never heard of anybody making it 16 years without throwing up? I see gross things at my job & throw up all the time (weak stomach)

I also have escaped M/S & I am just about one week behind you!!

Re: For the first time in 16 years... at 10w3d pregnant.......

ahhhh feel better!!!

Re: For the first time in 16 years... at 10w3d pregnant.......

Feel better!

Re: For the first time in 16 years... at 10w3d pregnant.......

I could have written this post myself!! I thought I was the only one who 'has a record' going. Aside from throwing up a handful of times from drinking, I would not have ever thrown up since 2nd grade!!! lol. I've always had a stomach of steel too! Nothing makes me sick.

And I am TERRIFIED of morning sickness. Here are some to you. Feel better!

Re: For the first time in 16 years... at 10w3d pregnant.......

Thank god I didn't have morning sickness, but I am the same as you when it comes to getting sick. I can't handle it, I know I sound like a baby, but I cry everytime I get sick (last couple of times was alcohol related ) and make my husband stay with me till I feel better. :( hope it was just a fluke thing. Feeel better!

Re: For the first time in 16 years... at 10w3d pregnant.......

Thanks ladies, I'm glad there are a few others out there who could relate! I told my DH I hope to keep up my record for another 16+ years!! Lets see if I can at least make it through the rest of this pregnancy!


In any case.. I took my prenatal HOURS ago ... with dinner!
