Not doing so hot
Well I felt good for about two days after getting out of the hospital....mostly because I was hydrated and no longer weak. I hadn't gained weight per say in the hospital because they were merely pumping me full of fluids which in turn (TMI) came right back out the other end as the same fluids they went in as (END TMI) but I was hydrated and feeling good(ish) for the time being.
Well...not so much anymore. My Husband has been away on a business trip and was due to come back in the wee hours on Friday morning....So I've been here along...just me and my pooch.....barfing my brains out ****continued in a moment...I have to barf right now****

OK back.

anyway....I was here alone barfing my life away....when my Hubby called this morning I told him how my day before had been and he asked if I wanted him to come home from his trip? I said no....I said you'll be home a in a couple days anyway it's fine....well he called me later telling me he is at the airport and coming home....well he's in Tennesee and we live in California....so he won't be home for a while...but at least he's coming home...

The Doctors phone lines are closed currently and do not reopen until 2 pm so I'm going to call her at that time and see what she wants me to do. I'm down another 3.5 pounds in the past couple of days and again nothing is staying down.

Let me just say, this is going to be our only baby. I am not going through this again. Everyone says oh you'll forget....you'll want another....no....wrong. How can I forget being so weak...how can I forget throwing up 20 times in one day for (so far) 5 months straight? I can't. It feels awful. I feel awful....the only good to come of this is my daughter at the end of all this....and then we're done....no more kids for me......we can always adopt later.....if we feel the need for another.

Anyway...this is a site that sort of explains what I have this is what the 'problem' with me is....

I don't know how to make links...becuase I'm lame....and I'm too weak right now to find the time to do it....so you can copy and paste it and read it if you're interested.

You know, I didn't have the same problem and I knew I was only going to have one.... On the bright side, it's usually girls that do this and boys don't.... Then again, aren't you half way thru yet???? LOL!! Sorry!! I really am!! I knew you wanted more than one and I am sorry this one has been so hard on you!

I am truly sorry you feel so shitty. My mom was sick the whole time with me too! It can't be fun. Please knoe I am thinking of you, if that is any consolation and I would take the sickies for you if I could! I would also hold your hair back for you too. I will pray that things will cool down for you and soon. I can understand you not wanting to go through this again. I don't know if I could either. Hang in there Brooke...Your sweet baby girl will be in your arms soon.
Love,
Tam

My birth mother confessed that she smoked pot when she was pregnant with me because it was the only way she could keep any food down. I can certainly understand it now...

Hey darlin' Carley here, I wish I had some advice on the morning sickness. I can relate to you about not wanting to do it again. I knew a few people with this and they said by about 24 weeks things got a lot better. I'm hoping it is the case for you and sooner. You will forget about this as soon as you hold your bella baby! You are in my thoughts...
