Let's just say... today did not go as planned. I threw up or as my nephew says I spilled a few times in the morning. I couldn't keep any food down and gatorade only stayed down a little while. Finally after spilling all morning, feeling just awful, and not being able to keep any food in my stomach, I called the OB nurse and talked it out with her. I ended up getting another prescription called in. I took my last Zofran and slept for the hour Kiran slept. When I woke up, I felt like a completely different person.
So I have 45 days worth of medicine which should take me well into my 25th week. I'm praying that by then my hormone levels or whatever is causing this crazy spilling will have leveled out. I'm hopeful that I won't need any more medicine and will feel good! I really enjoyed being pregnant last time once I got through the sickness and I'm looking forward to that. I am really thankful that the medicine works so well because I know for some people even the medicine isn't enough to help them feel better.
Kiran was really great about playing by herself and letting me go night-night on the floor all morning. She also entertained herself while I was otherwise occupied. See?
That would be two bags of cotton balls.
One time when I was sick, she brought me her Santa (the blanket head thing she sleeps with) and her blanket. Then she just sat there with her hand on my arm. It was so sweet I almost cried. And then I threw up.

Awww Kelley!! Man this sounds awful. :( I hope you're better soon and can enjoy the pregnancy.
i say take the meds the whole pregnancy if you have to. whatever you have to do to feel better.
glad you're feeling better. hang in there.
"...the blanket head thing she sleeps with." ha ha ha ha :)
I like your last line.."and then I threw up" because it reminds me of the whole "and then I found $20" and such to make the story better. Except yours is for real. Sorry you are spilling all the time.
Merritt- that was totally what I was going for. I actually wrote "and then I found $20" but I erased b/c I thought people who don't know about how to make a bad story good might actually think I found $20. So I went with the other version "and then I threw up." It was more appropriate for the story.
