Morning Sickness

I'm 7+1 weeks and the constant nausea is driving me mad.

I've called in sick to work this morning but told them I will be in this afternoon. The nausea is pretty constant, but it is at its strongest when I'm stressed, rushing around, or where there are strong smells.

I've been retching into the toilet but usually there is very little that appears, so I'm guessing it's not HG. But the feelings are so strong.

I've barely managed to eat for the last few days, and had a dramatically decreased appetite in the weeks before that. I think I've list about 4lbs so far, but am really bloated too.

I'm already on iron tablets but feel like my energy levels have slumped even further, to the point where I need to sit down in the shower to wash my hair. I'm going to bed as soon as my DD does, but struggling to settle to sleep, and am still exhausted when the alarm goes off in the morning.

Headaches are becoming more frequent too, and dark urine suggests that I'm a bit dehydrated.

I know I need to take little sips and nibble bland food throughout the day but I'm struggling.

Just needed a moan really, which I feel guilty about as I'm very excited to be pregnant. Worried about work too, feeling guilty for taking this morning off, but also feeling like I will probably need to do the same again at some point over the next few weeks.

Any reassurance of advice appreciated. Thanks xx
