I've started retching - hooray!!

Went over to Sainsbury's with Toby today and ended up retching and having to sit down on a big box of baked beans. With my current sore throat I sounded like a seal in agony but we live in a village with a lot of elderly people who just gave me knowing looks and little winks as they passed by.

Made it out of the store and into the churchyard before I ripped into the box of Snickers ice creams. It was a close call though. Tobes and I sat amongst the tombstones in the unexpected sunshine and scarfed down ice cream. I felt so much better after that.

The experience has made me get around to ordering some more Preggie Pops. They're herbal lollipops for morning sickness. Thank goodness they've started doing them as sweets without the sticks. The stick always seemed to look a bit like a cigarette when I was eating them and I got some dirty looks once I started showing with Tobes. Anyway, it'll be so much easier to be discreet without a big white stick poking out of my mouth.

I ordered some Seabands too which Mary used with her last pregnancy and said they helped. I'll try anything!
