Congratulations! 

I'm so sorry you are suffering from morning sickness.  Try eating saltine crackers before you get out of bed, then slowly drink some water - but not a lot of water.  I found that worked most of the time.  I had morning sickness with several of my pregnancies - but not all of them.  I also found that different foods would "turn my stomach" for each pregnancy - not always the same ones.  You can always "save" the Halloween candy for savoring in a couple of weeks - believe me you will enjoy it then!

Keep telling yourself that this will be over soon and when it is, you will probably feel that little life-form moving within you.  It is a sensation you will never forget.

hey ladies


thanks for the comfort. i read that morning sickness is a sign of a healthy pregnancy so i hope so.  a few months ago i remember reading in a members blog that she was pregnant too but i forgot which one. i wish someone can remind me.  even changing my toddlers diaper makes me get the urge to purge.

dear online journal,


i went to a party today and long hair envy!  thick gorgeous long locks. gorgeous color hair.  ohhhhh my hair, thank gawd for my hair! it  was in an elegant bun with 2 white sparkly flowers on the side. i didnt feel well, but i was a good sport. its ok i felt better talking to friends and family.  thankgawd.   it was nice though. a nice change i havent seen them for a month!   i usually have been staying in bed everyday, but i felt better thankgawd,  getting dressed in nice clothes putting on makeup felt like a luxury. it was really fabulous. like good old times.  i wore black nice dress pants, black tank  and white blazer. pointy white shoes, but changed into comfty white sandals.

I will keep you and your brother in my prayers.

hey sakina ,

thanks for the tip. i dont have any spearmint oil, but surely i will get some.  where did you know about that method? interesting and definately will give it a try.

dinner party-  it was fabulous. i had my hair is a classic chic bun. it looked thick and healthy thankgod!  its soooooooooooooooo hard to get over a hair stylist damaging your healthy long locks, like that happened to me a few months ago. its like a knife in my heart. but realistically(sorry peeps i cant spell......and im too sick to look it in the dictionary......please be patient with mispellings........no one is perfect ) through my hair. conversation was absolutely wonderful, fun and happy.  good company .......thank god its a blessing.  i wasnt feeling all that well, but i got through it.  i have another one to go to tomarrow. my husband and i have a big family that lovesssss to get together. sometimes its annoying, because im sick.

ryans bday- my son ryan turned 2 on sunday october 30. we did go to haunted trails, but that was just a little mini bday quickie party.  i was toooooo sick to do anything else. but thankgod i ordered the Incredibles cake. i ordered the personalized party favors and the rest is catoring. im too sick to cook.  hopefully everything will go ok. please keep me in your prayers. i dont want to be nausous and cant be there for the party. the hard thing is to pick everything up early and finish everything. hopefully it will go well.

my hair- i took a warm bath after my busy day, with a few drops of tea tree oil in it.  drank green soothing tea while relaxing and reading a book in the warm bath.  i made a herbal spray of lavender, rosemary, cedarwood oil.  i sprayed it on my hair after the bath. it was really nice. then i combed and put my hair in a sleek bun secured mediumly with bobby pins. im now in my comfty pajamas and am getting sleepy.   i love that victoria secrets body spray of vanilla after a bath or shower

good hair to  all good ppl. horrible hair for all horrible ppl!lol

I'm glad you had a good time at the dinner party! The b-day party for your 2-year-old should be fun too. I hope you're not too sick that day and can enjoy yourself.
