Thanks Shauna..yea ginger ale makes me feel worse...crackers nothing...I'm taking a RX the doc gave me but it rarely works..He now wants me to try Zofran..but I really didn't want to start taking all these pills....and plus I don't know what I did with the Rx..so I gotta call the office for a new one...then he mentioned steroid shots if all else fails...I haven't been to work since last Friday...I am so uncomfortable and it drains the energy...i'm on the batheroom floor throwing up..I can't do that at work.

bwaay, mi nuh really have nuh advice fi yuh, NUTTING worked fi mi!!

I tried the sea bands, I tried the ginger tea, I tried crackers, I tried the vitamin B12, I drank bottles of mylanta.....NOTHING WORKED!

My doctor prescribed an anti-nausea medication, but I decided not to take it, they can't promise you it has NO effect on the baby....

U see it..nothing..i came out the batheroom and hubby cooked chicken..let me tell u i made a U turn back to the bathroom..my gosh...I HATE IT..nothing works..and ur right I really don't wanna take all these meds..I take the Reglan once in a while..but i don't know why I throw up anyway...I would hate to take too long off work it cuts into my maternity leave..but wah mi a go do....

why would it cut into your maternity leave, this should be a seperate disabilty, no??

u know wah mi not even know how dem a do it...I plan on using FMLA for maternity..they only give us 6 unpaid weeks off...they told me they will be using this as a leave of abscence, unpaid days off..job security..so i wouldn't use up all my PTO the little I have left..so dats why mi no know the dif in their terms if they're using "leave of abscence" as some FMLA days...so i gotta get some clarity from them

Kimmy,

Mi no know how New York flex wid FMLA still, but weh mi deh a DC you get 4 months (dem caan hire no badi fi fill u posiition)...when I worked in Maryland u get 3 months. FMLA is not PAID leave (you have to use your sick or vacation time or whatever type of leave you have). All FMLA does is PROTECT your job. Your employer has to have a certain amount of employee and you have to had work a certain amount of hours...unless dem change di rules, that's how I've always understood it...Fi mi rass job give us 1 RAHTID week PAID maternity LEAVE (WTH)...but I guess 1 week bettah dan nutin

********************************************************************************

....when it hurts to look back and you're scared to look ahead LOOK beside you and I'll be there.....

There comes a point in your life when you realize who matters, who never did, who won't anymore... and who always will.

So, don't worry about people from your past, there's a reason why they didn't make it to your future.

Please try and eat something. I got so sick of throwing up I lost 7 pounds in 3 days. I was afraid to eat. On top of that, I had a high risk pregnancy because of my previous miscarriages. So, they told me either I force myself to eat or they're going to admit me to the hospital and hook me up to a feeding tube. I think that day I ate a big plate of ackee and salt fish (that stayed down for about 2 hours). Mi a tell you, all I have to do is smell something I don't agree with. I had to bath with DOVE soap, if I use anything else I would throw up. Bway di tings WE/US omman avi go thru...MAN fi kiss our feet EVERYDAY and bless us and treat us like QUEENS fi bring dem pickney

Alright......where is everyone? I'm so bored today.

I'm watching Food Network "Extreme Cakes".....It's not good--craving cake. Thursday we were watching the top 10 donuts in the US. Half-way through, I called my landlord and begged him to bring us some Krispy Cremes when he goes on his usual Thursday night grocery shopping. Best damn reheated to make them fresh again donuts I ever had.

Hope everyone's having a good weekend.

JAE, if I make it to D.C. again this year through work, I'm in.

LOL!! We went to Krispy Creme for V-day for desert. Sounds like me this weekend bored because I get paid on Monday. Plus I don't want to clean. I wish I won the mega millions and could get someone to clean our house.

:lol::lol::lol: You and me BOTH Chica!!!!!
