This pregnancy certainly has been different then my others. With previous ones I NEVER got sick. I mainly felt tired. This pregnancy, I have been nauseous this entire time (12 weeks). It really hasn't been bad but it gets to the point that I simply can't stand it anymore. I'm not 'sick' with this nausea, but a very sick tummy.
Yesterday a neighbor told me about taking 1 B6 vitamin and 1/2 a Unisom at night and that will help with the next day nausea. After a very sick stomach all day yesterday I decided to give it a try. Naturally these pills are not something I typically have around and of course Ed was in class last night. I put out a plea on facebook in hopes that a neighbor would have these pills that I could take. Thankfully someone offered to head to the store for me.
One and a half pills later I was completely out to the world last night. Man, I slept great! Once morning came, I continued to sleep. I eventually dragged myself out of bed only to doze on the couch. I lay listening to Olivia hum 'Sweet Hour of Prayer' while coloring for an hour, and Lucy playing with Ed. This went on until 2p. Through this all I am grateful that Ed was home.
So perhaps the B6 and Unisom are not a good combo for me. My stomach feels great today (a little sick after lunch) but I need to function. With all the sleeping I've done today, hopefully I can sleep tonight.

Not that I'm suggesting you go vegan while you are pregnant, :) but did you see this blog? http://www.carrieonvegan.com/2012/08/06/pcos-back-to-basics/
