[maternity] *sigh*

[widowspeak]

I've been trying very hard not to be a complainer, given that A) we've tried four long years to have this kid in the first place, and B) because I know that not everyone wants to hear about the ups and downs of being knocked up

I'm sorry it's going so badly for you. :(

(There are no good sturdy affordable maternity clothes for anyone. I'm sure it's worse for larger women, as I completely sympathize on that front and I'm of so-called "average" (if short) size. I have tank tops I bought @ 3-4 months in that have holes in them at 9 months. WTF (and they weren't as cheap as I usually buy tank tops, either). )

What about reading something really funny about barfing a lot while pregnant? http://bit.ly/qGmAyI

That was originally published at damomma.com, which has poorly organized archives, but is absolutely hilarious and, I think, a great resource for new moms.

You'll get through it. Which is not to say it won't suck, but you'll get through it, and it'll be totally worth it when you do. ((extends non-creepy hugs from an internet stranger))

I would eat as much as possible when I felt like eating and drink water when I knew I was going to barf so that I'd be actually vomiting instead of dry heaving or, worse, throwing up straight stomach acid.

Hang in there. Get an IV if you need to. It will get better eventually. Pinky promise.

Plus, when you're holding your tiny tot you'll be like "Puking? What puking?"

Oh wow. Well it`ll be worth it in the end (I suppose)

My aunt could only eat baked potatoes from wendy`s when she was preggers with my cousin.
