6w5d

Well, the morning sickness and nausea has definitely kicked in!  The first thing I have to do in the morning is eat or I'll be too sick to do anything.  I have yet to actually throw up but at this point, that's gotta feel better than just feeling like you have to throw up, right?  I'm still hungry all the time and I think that's mostly because I'm getting "fuller" at meals than I used to.  So my body is forcing me to eat smaller meals more often, which is what my doctor says I should do anyway.  I'm also trying to drink tons of water. 
 
I've also had this pain in my lower back near my tailbone.  It's been around for weeks, but it's gotten to extreme pain this week.  I've taken a pillow to work and it helps at times.  At home, I just try and stay reclined to take the pressure off of the area.  I'm hoping after a more or less relaxing weekend, it goes away or at least to the point where I don't have to wince in pain everytime I move.
 
I hope everyone has a good weekend and a great Father's day!!!

I suggest seeing a chiropracter for the low back/tail bone. I love my chiropracter! You can even find them that specialize in pregnancy and children! My chiro. is in O'Fallon, but I could ask her if she can recommend anyone closer to where you are if you're interested.
