Please pray for me, this pregnancy is so hard!
I am so sick that I am barely functioning, let alone keeping up on laundry and such.

Thanks for the prayers, I have had 2 good days in a row. Turns out that the Unisom is a very important part of the Unisom+B6 anti-nausea combo!

Angi,
I am praying for you with great empathy! My early pregnancies usually involve NO function on my part, hospitalization, IV's, blah, blah, blah. It ain't pretty! I KNOW the challenge you face and the sheer awfulness of it all!

If you have the energy - read through this thread. Many share great ideas for how to handle what you're facing in terms of life with littles, and I share in detail my strategy for surviving this time.

In the meantime...know that I'm praying hard for you dearest!!

I am almost 9 weeks, I think .
Luckily, my current crew are 7, 7, 9, and 11. The 11 year old attends a Catholic Middle School. The girls are all able to fend for themselves and each other through out the day.

Weeks 8 and 9 are the peak weeks for pregnancy hormones. After the 9 week mark hormones begin a slow decline. So...if you're at the 9 week mark, you're at the roughest spot. Hang in there! The next couple of weeks won't get any worse, and you should begin to feel some relief within 2-3 weeks.
