Popsicles and cheese

I've been on the search for something to settle my stomach. I feel queasy and tired all day and then every once in a while, just to spice things up, I start retching. If I'm really lucky I might even throw up. Oh, the joys of early pregnancy.

I had terrible morning sickness when I was pregnant with Toby and, if I'm honest, it's not as bad this time around (touch wood). The thing is that with Toby I had a few sure-fire things that would calm things down - gingersnaps, saltine crackers and Preggie Pops. Other things that often helped were instant mashed potato (don't even think about using real potatoes), McDonald's, and these ice-cream sandwich things they make in Tokyo. This time, none of those things really help and most of them make me feel sick just typing them.

The only two things I've found that really seem to help are Babybel cheese and popsicles. I thought I would be healthy and buy fruit juice ice lollies. Nope. Got to be the cheapo sugar water ice lolly. I'm just grateful that something can make a difference.
