to not go into work today

Im 6 months pregnant, still getting morning sickness here and there.

Last night I woke at about 2am with heartburn. Was up about 3 times over the next 2 hours trying to resolve it, when I suddenly thought, actually Im going to be sick. I still didnt feel entirely better after that but I managed to sleep till the alarm went off.

Still felt crappy then so thought actually, im not going to go in.

Problem is... I feel so guilty! Ive not taken any time off with the morning sickness (once where I was sick on the train on the way into work - not nice at all) and yet I just hate that feeling of giving in to it. Im not sure this was morning sickness anyway, it could have been food related. Ive just had some dry toast and feel even worse so theres no way I should have gone in.

Yet why do I feel so guilty about taking time off?

Tbh, sounds like you have got a bug, so it would be better if you stayed off.
Don't feel guilty - it's one day.
