Being pregnant SUCKS!

Yup!  This is going to be one of those terribly negative posts.  If you don't want to hear a pregnant woman complain, x out now.

K, I am soooo miserable!  The nausea is unbearable. I'm nauseous all day every day. It started October 1st and I have been sick ever since!  Nothing helps!  All I want to do is stay home in bed and hope to sleep for the rest of the 1st trimester.  I pray.  I PRAY for the end of nausea in the 2nd trimester!
I've tried everything to combat it.  Crackers, ginger, ginger snaps, sex, vitamin b6, small spread out meals, sitting still, breathing, laying still...  NOTHING.
unfortunately I still have to go to work.  Kids dont really understand that teacher needs a moment of peace and quiet!  I also haven't officially told the adults yet either. I did tell a few other teachers who I'm friends with outside of work as well as a few other teachers who announced they were preg.  I just told a few teachers who don't know me well and their reaction was a little negative "who's the father!?".   I didn't think about how people would react negatively because I'm not married.   To the second lady who asked me that I said "My fiancé, (his name) but I don't think you know him.    I mean want do they think of me!?  But any way, that's besides the point.  I'm going to tell everyone about it next week after my drs appt. I will be 11 weeks then. Not quite 12 weeks but damn close considering all the nausea and vomitting I've lived with, silently.
The nausea has taken a steady yet slow progression towards torture. Finally week 9 and 10 has included projectile vomitting.   Its almost like anything I eat comes right back up. But if I don't eat I throw up any way. It's like nasty acidic bile.  And I feel sick all day long. I get little to no break. Nothing sound particularly appealing to eat.  I try to eat things on the bland side because even though there is a good chance I'll throw it up, for the time it stays in my stomach it will remain some what settled.  
This morning on the way to work, as I was driving I was gagging and finally had the strong urge to throw up. I put my hazards on and pulled over to the emergency lane opened up my door leaned over and spewed my guts out.  Cars were honking there horns as they passed so I got out of the car and stood in a safer place and let her rip.  I felt relief for a little while until i got hunger nausea.
Anyway, pregnancy, sucks!
