Crackers, or something with carbs, first thing in the morning – keep some by your bed, eat them before you get up and moving. 🙂

Hope you’re feeling better soon, and congratulations.

Congratulations - I’ve read some of your stuff about your struggles. Now the unsolicited advice comes flying fast and furious. First - I loved Girlfriend’s Guide to Pregnancy. You may have read a million things about pregnancy, but it’s still a funny read. In fact, I’m done with my copy (and I mean done - the tubes were tied, burned and buried in unholy ground). If you want I pass my copy along - if you don’t, anyone else can throw their hand up and I’ll send it.

Also, for the morning sickness citrus worked for me. I could just suck on a lemon wedge and add a lemon to some ice water. My doc told me about one of his patiens that went around sniffing lemon Joy.

Hey, I stubbed my toe walking from the bed to my shower, THEN lost my favorite pen in a meeting.

And you’re complaining about a little puke, urine and some long-needle injections?

Come on, suck it up a little Lucy!!!

(yes, he’s kidding, he’s nowhere near this insensitive in real life…)
