so, i didn't really develop the typical "morning sickness." i actually would feel nauseous starting at the sixth week or so and it lasted for about five, six weeks. the symptoms would usually develop late evening (six or 7), and from the rest of the night on, i would just be very careful to eat/drink anything.
well, i take my medicine at night, along with my shot. originally, i got these healthy organic prenatals at sprouts that the lady recommended after i looked at my various options (because i wanted the best for these babies).
that.did.not.work.out.according.to.plan. these things tasted... like RANCID YEAST x1,000. WHY- oh why would someone create/manufacture nasty smelling pills for PG women to take? who was that stupid to make them? i don't know, but after one attempt at those, i had my first symptom of "evening sickness." it was "smells" that got to me... usually taking my pills at night.
so, off to sprouts to return. got a different healthy kind. (meanwhile, my insurance, cigna had filled a prescription when i first got PG for prenantals, and i was taking those, but i had wanted to switch to healthier ones.) tried these out. not as bad, but still TERRIBLE. couldn't even stomach them. anyone who would smell these would know... you just CANNOT give these to anybody PERIOD!
went back to my cigna prenatals. LOL. now, i take those, but these big 'ol horse pills aren't fun either! so, i was at target one day, and got these Honest Kids' juices. it was a carton of eight for less than $5. it said 1/2 the sugar, so i wanted to give them a try. i thought that i remembered a friend on FB mentioning these at costco....
tried the juices... so yummy- very light, not too sweet, but enough to do the job to take all of my pills, and still have a sweet snack right before bedtime. :)
went to costco... didn't have them. "deleted" them. WHAT! i called HK, and they sent me out all these coupons, free vouchers for the inconvenience, but didn't understand why costco deleted them. they were going to investigate.
three costcos later, found the juices... a 32 pack (four different 8 pk of flavors) for less than $10!
now, i am stocked up for six months. ;) i especially like the "punch" ones!
we all grew up on capri suns, but really... you can taste the difference!!! try these today!
