I wish my brain would allow me some peace and stop worrying about things that are not worth worrying about. I hate having anxiety and obsessive thoughts.

=( I've known far too many women who've had HE. They would basically open the fridge, pick a food, and say 'could be a winner, or maybe not'. One told me she got used to throwing up into a bag while driving. It is no fun. Everyone wants to find SOME way to help relieve the suffering, but like you said, you're not in control. They've ALL had normal healthy babies and the nausea and dizziness all ended when the baby made it's appearance. Hang in there. It's for a GREAT cause! <3

There are a lot of comments re: Google Glass that focus on the new normal or how privacy or thoughts about privacy are shifting, the new social norm, etc. As I read these on thought jumped into my head:

I keep thinking about how a group of teens raped a drunk and unconscious girl and thought absolutely nothing about filming it with their phones and posting about it all over Twitter. Obvious other major problems aside, I'm not sure I'm this level or concept of transparency or comfort with everything being shared is a good thing. What if not everyone is responsible enough to handle it?
- Mary Carmen
from iPhone
I'm guessing almost no one is responsible enough to handle total transparency in all instances. Judges sometimes show bias, police officers sometimes break the law (even if in pursuit of true justice as they define it, it's still illegal.) Priests and ministers prove their fallibility and 'sinful nature' on a daily basis. We're all subject to subtle prejudice and thoughts of retribution...

- Jkram|ɯɐɹʞſ
Also [by way of example] I don't like to use foul language, in private or in public, but when I'm behind the wheel and 'in the moment' I've been known to unleash a string of pretty bad words. That isn't normally part of my character, but given certain trigger situations (e.g. some a-hole cutting me off) I step out of my normal range. No time for reflection or taking a beat. Just blammo! So often this is true of social media. (Methinks.)
- Jkram|ɯɐɹʞſ
I think you make a great point. There really is no time for reflection. Add to that a lack of understanding of consequences and you have a mess.

- Jennifer Dittrich
It may be time to have a heart to heart with your doctor and with the discussion specifically for a Zofran pump. You will receive a small continuous type of dosing and you can be slowly weaned off within a month or two. You need a quality of life and you need proper nutrition, meaning anything you aren't puking.

Does your doctor have you on any anti-emetics? I would not be strong enough to go through what you're experiencing.
- Running Slow
Yes. I am on zofran and phenagrin. I am also taking B6. The best all these do is slow down the vomiting. The nausea is constant. Fortunately, I do get relief when I sleep. So I find myself napping a lot. I can tolerate about 1-2 hours of actively doing something before I get flushed and want to hurl. This time frame varies day to day. This week has been much worse than usual. I don't...

Also at almost 14 weeks I have gained 1.5 pounds....depending on what week I get weighed. This is sposed to be the start of the period where you gain about a pound a week. I don't see that happening.

You probably don't need to worry too much about gaining weight or not. I actually lost weight with Jojo - which we considered a good thing. I had plenty to spare going in, and he was 8 lbs, 4 oz at birth.
- Mary B: #TeamMonique
The article was enlightening. I was queasy the whole time with Jojo - to the point that when I saw posters for Windows 95, I thought, "Please - I'm sick enough already . . ." but NOTHING like the article or, evidently, what you're going through. Yes - Mother's Day better be a second Christmas for you!
