The Waves of Nausea

So my time of morning sickness has come. The past four days have been kind of rough. I've had constant nausea but very thankful that I have not gotten sick. Smells now seem to be my archenemies. I can't go anywhere without my nose taking me to overdrive.

Yesterday morning, I thought having a little breakfast before the show would help me out. I went to Einstein Brothers to get a bagel. The smell upon walking through the door was so overwhelming that not even 5 steps in I was about to lose it. I quickly got my breakfast and headed to the theater. The first thing I did was change out of my clothes. I wasn’t even in the store for 5 minutes and all I could smell was the store on my clothes. I even took some of my body spray from Crabtree and Evelyn and sprayed my clothes in hopes to mask the smell but to my dismay after the show I still smelled like store.

I am very thankful that I am able to get through doing the show with no major mishaps. But I was curious to see how my shift tonight is going to go. It was the first shift since I started to feel sick. Thank God the only issue I had was the Bloomin’ Onion. So I guess I won’t be eating that for a while.

I was also very excited that I was finally able to eat a full meal at dinner. I was starting to be concerned about not eating enough for the baby. I liked it a lot more when I was eating us out of house and home…

OMG, I was in a show when I found out I was pregnant with Chase. I was in one David Ives scene where I had to be a monkey, and in that scene I had to eat peanuts, a banana and jump on (and swing around) a tire swing. I cannot believe I got through that show without throwing up on anyone! I feel you pain, girl!

Of course, I also loved the fact that Chase was in his first show before he was even born! :)
