I wish I could swallow all of my saliva, but my glands are producing them at an alarming speed — even during sleep! *chokes* And gulping them down makes me throw up, which I am trying to avoid at all cause. I hate vomiting

Nausea, heartburn, extremely frequent nature calls and now salivating. Although they’re just Four, in reality there is actually a hidden dropdown list of discomforts for each symptoms.

Here are some of my Nausea Culprits that are making life rosy every day:

• Detergents — the husband is doing all dishes, washing and cleaning
• Shampoo and soap — unbearably using a pinch each time
• Perfumes — if you’re wearing, please beware
• Meat — Benjac Jr might be a vegan?
• Food in general — if only I don’t have to eat at all
• Air — breathing is almost as lethal as not because of the unknown smell it carries

Everyday I wake up hoping that all these will come to pass. When does the pregnancy bliss begin to kick in? *drums fingers impatiently*
