We just recently found out that we're expecting our second baby in February of '07! February seems like an eternity away...especially now that morning sickness has set in. Ugh. This time, it has started earlier and is way more intense, so I'm trying to take action NOW! I have found that the only thing that keeps the nausea from creeping up and turning into a trip to the toilet, trash can, etc., is popping in a piece of mint gum. It kind of takes the edge off of the nausea and makes me feel like a semi-normal person. Mint gum...this is what works for me...at least right now:)We'll see if this still works over our vacation to the lake. Be back on Monday!

I found the same thing worked for my morning sickness too! I went through so much gum!
Congratulations! I hope the morning sickness passes quickly. I remember those days. Wish I'd known the mint trick back then, LOL!
I knew you were pregnant already, but to see it written out on paper makes it so much more real! Oh how I love being an Auntie! I love you!
Congrats! Lemon drops are great, too.
Have fun this weekend and congatulations again!
Are you sure you're going to be okay for camping?!!
Ok, I am SO going to have to try the mint gum and lemon drops. I'll do anything to keep my stomach from rolling. (I made trips to the bathroom 4 times yesterday!) I finally broke down and the doctor gave me a prescription for it. Whew! I feel like a new woman!
Yeah for February babies!
I found that sucking on mints accomplished the same thing - Altoids, whatever you can find.
Congratulations!! What a wonderful blessing (babies and mint gum)! :)
Congratulations! And thanks for sharing!
Dear Amy
Congratulations !!!!!
Children are the greatest blessing.
Hope the morning sickness goes quickly and you get to that "blooming" stage soon.

Amy, I am so sorry that you are feeling so sick! I am praying for you!
P.S. Like Kels said, it is fun to see you write about the baby! It DOES make it feel more real!
Congratulations! I hope the mint gum works throughout the icky-stomach months.
