Just part of it

Feb 10, 2000    Write an essay on this topic.




I had morning sickness with both of my pregnancies. It started about week 6 and lasted until 12 weeks. Both times it went away almost to the day that I finished my first trimester. Maybe it was psychological becasue I had read that it usually goes away around the third month. I didn't care why it went away as long as it did. I was pretty lucky I suppose because I didn't have the vomitting but I would be nausious pretty much all day long. At times I wished I would vomit so I'd feel better. Saltine crackers was about the only helpful thing for me and they weren't a great help. Also forcing myself to eat a little something every couple of hours helped. As soon as my stomach became empty it was a lot worse. I also kept telling myself that this was all worth it and that a little sickness was probably nothing compared to labor. So I kept a positive attitude and kept on getting up each day and going to work. I knew that millions of women have experienced what I was feeling and that it was just part of it.
