I am with so many of you in the food stakes. Can only face white bread toasted, crisps and apples, but they have to be really cold, straight from the fridge. Fizzy water seems to be good, but it does mental amounts of fizzing on my tongue, nothing like normal, which makes me wonder if there is some sort of chemical change in your mouth with pregnancy that gives that vile taste all the time.
I had another horrible retching session this morning but then felt weirdly brighter immediately afterwards. I also had a little nap this afternoon when my DS had his nap and I'm trying to be in bed by 8:30pm which I really think is helping. My sickness was far worse by this stage with my first pregnancy and the only thing I'm doing differently is trying to get as much sleep as I possible can.
Haven't had my booking in appointment yet but just wanted to agree with others about breastfeeding - I had lots of issues at the beginning due to an undiagnosed tongue tie which was later snipped and horrendous oversupply issues, plus nasty damage to one nipple, but I ended up breastfeeding my son to 10.5 months and it was totally worth it. I did make use of the breastfeeding clinics locally but think it was all a bit too late (by this time the tongue tie had done its damage) so the only thing I always say to pregnant friends, is make sure the midwives check the baby for tongue tie as soon as it's born. If there's an issue, they can snip it then and there and all should go smoothly. It's surprisingly common. Also, if you battle with oversupply, I would recommend not going crazy with a breast pump just to relieve pressure and stock up the freezer - I wish I'd had better advice on that at the time as it just exacerbated the problem. Basically, for something that is so natural, it takes a while to get the hang of it, so I would recommend getting all the help you can at the beginning from professionals.
