Sick again.
The drugs don't seem to be working too well. Well, let me backtrack. I know they're working because I'm not writhing around on the couch all day from the constant nausea (only half of the day) but I still can't really eat (the Crispy Chicken Sandwich must have been a fluke) and I'm still intimately involved with my toilet. I'm down about 8 to 10 pounds and my energy is gone. And for chrissake, I'm really tired of being this way.
For the first time in my life, I have considered calling my boss to tell him I can't work. I don't do that. I work no matter what. I'm a tough broad.
Okay, usually I'm a tough broad. Today, not so much.
I've even resorted to watching the View. Send reinforcements.
Not the view! Fer chrissake, now we know you're bad off... Bossy wishes she had a magic elixir. At least one you could legally consume while pregnant.
ReplyDeleteOh, I am so sorry you're still feeling that way. Hopefully it'll pass soon enough and you can get back to feeling normal. Incidentally, what did you think of Hill on The View?
ReplyDeleteJane, Pinks & Blues
Are you just on Zofran? You might want to add in Phenergan. I needed both with KayTar.
ReplyDeleteOK, if you're sick enough to be watching The View - on purpose - that fully counts as a five-alarm emergency. Call for backup. Pronto. No one should have to listen to Hasselbeck's brain-dead drivel when they're sick.
ReplyDeleteOh Mrs. Chicky, poor poor you. I'd rather do almost anything than throw up. You have all my sympathy and then some. I wish I could help.
ReplyDeleteThe View? OMG you must be sick, very very sick (duh). Will be sending rescue team ASAP.
ReplyDeleteOh my. This is serious. Very serious.
ReplyDeleteYou poor thing. You ARE a tough nut. Hang in there sweetheart, and I hope you get some relief very soon.
ReplyDelete-HH
I'm so sorry - and hope that you will be feeling better soon... no-one deserves this much sickness - especially not you!! You've been there, done that, already - where's the fairness in that?? I know I know, life's not fair.... well it should be in some cases, and this would be one of them. I'll be thinking of & praying for you Mrs. Chicky...
ReplyDeleteOh, god. Do you need some DVDs? I can send Sex in the City...
ReplyDeleteMy dear, I do hope it ends nicely after a couple of months, and you are halfway through. I really do.
Oh dear, this totally SUCKS.
ReplyDeleteI won't even try to tell you that I can relate but I feel for you. Big time!
Egad. That sounds really heinous. I hope the nausea abates soon. No one should have to suffer through that just to create a human.
ReplyDeleteOh, no! Not the View!!!!!
ReplyDeleteDidn't your OBGYN advise against watching The View?
ReplyDeleteYou have all my sympathy!
ReplyDeletereflexology?
ReplyDeleteOh god, that sounds awful! I hope all gets better soon! I'd call your doctor and ask for more help. There's got to be SOMETHING they can give you!
ReplyDeleteso you don't mind if I eat the crispy chicken sandwich?
ReplyDeleteTry Oprah -- I hear that takes the nausea away! ;)
ReplyDeletepoor girl... are you sure it's the baby and not the view that is making you sick?
ReplyDeleteWow, I feel for you. Ick for the sickness...AND for watching the View.
ReplyDeleteOh, Mrs. Chicky. That totally sucks. No two ways about it.
ReplyDeleteI'm so sorry.
You deserve a nice IV/Zofran fluid cocktail delivered right up your arm.
ReplyDeleteIs there anything else you can take for it? It's not like you have the weight to spare....
ReplyDeleteI hope you can get some relief. It sounds perfectly miserable.
you must really be sick to be watching The View. And you are making the Red Sox sick too (why else are they so keen on losing?)
ReplyDeleteNo wonder you're nauseated. The View? It would make anyone sick!
ReplyDeleteHope you feel better soon.
I am prescribing every season of Sex and The City.
ReplyDeleteThe View? Maybe that batch is defective?
ReplyDeleteI hope this finds you feeling better!
ReplyDeletexoxo
The View? You really are in a bad place.
ReplyDeleteYou really need to c'mon up here to Canada. We've got the good drugs.
Um, Diclectin that is.
Hope you're feeling better very soon!
Oh Mrs. C~~~ I sincerely hope this passes soon and you can start to enjoy your pregnancy.
ReplyDeleteTake the day off, woman!
ReplyDeleteOh, how I wish that we lived next door so that you and I could huddle on the floor together and commiserate in our misery. And hold each other's hair back over the toilet. XOXO
ReplyDeleteThe View? Wow you are in trouble.
ReplyDeleteIf Meredith Viera starts to make sense to you, please call me immediately. I will hop in my car & have you reprogrammed in a hotel over the weekend.
ReplyDeleteOh, sweetie. I'm so sorry about the sickness. Unfortunately, I remember it well. Just try to stay hydrated and take it easy. You're a tough broad, yes, but you still need TLC.
You know it's bad when you're watching The View. When I was pregnant with Julia I watched like, spaghetti westerns because I couldn't muster up the energy to push the Channel UP button on the remote.
ReplyDeleteAw, you poor thing. I mean tough broad. I mean poor thing. ;) I hope the nausea ends soon and that the people around you are being especially good to ya.
ReplyDeleteUgh. Poor Mrs Chicky.
ReplyDeletePlease try acupuncture. It works - and not in a'it-worked-for-a-friend-
of-a-friends-maiden-aunt' kind of way.
It. Works.
Did your morning sickness with Chicky last the whole pregnancy or did it sunside after the first trimester?? I know I am about 9 weeks now and I keep thinking...only 3 more weeks, only 3 more weeks... I'm keeping my fingers crossed for you that even if you were sick the whole time with Chicky that this time will be different!
ReplyDeletePoor thing.
The View?
ReplyDeletegawd woman you are on death's door!
can we ship you some diclectin?
Nothing is worse than constant draining feeling of sick. Big (HUGS). So very sorry you have this. I wish I had a magic wand.
ReplyDeleteTake care and away with this sick...on to healthy and easy pregnancy.
I say tell your boss that you've had a bad case of The View and won't be in for a few days.
ReplyDeleteI really hope that today is better.
Hell grrl.
ReplyDeleteCall me. I'll help.
And TAKE SOME TIME! Stop being alpha chick for a moment. Please.
OMG, you looked so small when I met you, I can't even imagine you down 10 pounds! Give yourself a break and take some time off from working. The world will not stop and your boss will understand. And if he/she doesn't, try to set up a meeting where you can throw up on him/her.
