So I have been pretty lucky so far. I am not having much along the lines of morning sickness. I have felt sick while eating, after eating, later in the evening, and a few random times, but overall, not so bad, and not puking. How can I complain?
The one thing I have noticed that is making me sick pretty consistently, is garlic. Every time I have more than a little, it just makes me want to vomit. I feel overwhelmed by it. I think my sniffer is so sensitive right now, I just can't handle it.
This leads me to my story. Mr. W loves garlic, but garlic doesn't love Mr. W. He smells like it for days after eating it. Despite his best efforts with brushing and flossing and mouthwash, it just comes from his pores.
The other night, I noticed the smell, and knew he had been into some of mommy's pregger pickles(the good kind from the cooler). No problem, or so I thought. Since having new carpet installed, we have been careful to keep the doors shut and the dog confined in our room to discourage any intentional "accidents" in the middle of the night.(which works pretty well, by the way) I wake up around 3am or so, and the stench of garlic is so bad in the room, I start to gag. I have to hurry to the door, open it, and start fanning air in the room.
Mr. W wakes up and asks what I am doing and I tell him.
Sorry dear, you stink of garlic so badly the whole room smells and I have to air it out or I will surely vomit and not get back to sleep.
Mr. W proceeded to say "no problem, I will start sleeping in the other room".
He wasn't even mad. His feelings were hurt. I didn't mean it, but OMG the stink in that room. Well, it was a little too much to take.
On a side note, my friend Beth reminded me that vampires don't like garlic. Probably some other creatures, too. My baby must be one of those things.
