Get Out the Party Poppers, I'm Starting to Feel HUMAN Again!

"CEEEEEEEELEBRATE GOOD TIMES, COME ON!"

For the last couple of days, I have begun to have some more energy, and I am loving it!

I am now 14 weeks and 3 days along, so it must be true what they say- between week 12 -14, you begin to feel a bit better.

Sure I'm still puking randomly and having cramps here and there (and let's not mention sodding heartburn!) but I no longer feel like a zombie, so have managed the odd walk with the dogs and a tiny bit more housework so feel more able to deal with it.

Pregnancy Tips for Nausea, Sickness and more

Considering I have spent the last three months trying to deal with severe nausea, sporadic sickness and constant tiredness, I thought I would give you some suggestions of what can help to alleviate or at least minimise these symptoms (sometimes lol).

Dry Food

A number of people told me to eat something small and dry before getting out of bed in the morning, and this can help to reduce the nausea. I recommend a dry cracker or rich tea biscuit, as they are quite easy to eat at that time of the morning.

Most days this did help me, as it lined my stomach and would show me if I could keep things down before I attempted a breakfast. Some days I could not even keep this down, but it is less painful to puke up a cracker then it is to puke up a whole meal or even worse, being sick on an empty stomach which just burns!
