Morning Sickness

I've only thrown up once since I've been pregnant, and I had only eaten grapefruit that day and immediately got out of a hot shower. I am fairly nauseous most of the day, but for the most part, the problem has been that I am just not hungry and no food sound appetizing, so I really have to force myself to eat. Yesterday at the doctor's office we discussed some options for if my morning sickness progresses in the next few weeks from just nauseous to vomiting, but mostly it was over-the-counter medicine I can take and when not to shower. (note: apparently showering on an empty stomach can trigger vomiting!) This morning I woke up and felt AWFUL! The first thing I thought was that I wished I put crackers next to my bed as my mom had suggested. My stomach was churning, and it was all I could do to keep from throwing up. Sophie was crying to go out, and I knew I just had to make a run for it. I made it to the kitchen, shoved some crackers in my mouth, and began to feel slightly better. I didn't end up throwing up, but I came pretty close. I wonder if this means my morning sickness will start to progress. Although I definitely learned to keep crackers in our bedroom, I am still going to look for other natural remedies to prevent me from throwing up, because I really want to try to avoid medicine while I am carrying this little blessing.
