Too sick to work, ugh!

Sy

Sorry this maybe a bit of a rant and a little TMI.

I didn't have any annoying pregnancy symptoms until about week 7-8. But I've spent the last 3 weeks really paying for it. My All the Sickness is about to drive me crazy. If I am not throwing up everyday, then I'm at the very least nauseous to the point that I can't move. When I do finally throw up, it's bad. I just keep throwing up until nothing is left. And I pee myself most of the time while throwing up. Today is the second day I've had to miss work in less than a week. And it really has me wondering. How do people do it. How do women go to work and pretend everything is fine. Most everything I've read recommends waiting until you are in the 2nd trimester before you tell anyone especially at work but it seems like the first trimester is trying really hard to announce it to the world. And I honestly don't know if I can continue trying to work while I feel like this. Just the 2 block walk from the parking lot to my office in the Texas sun is enough to make me sick.

I really wonder how many ladies quit or consider quiting their jobs in the 1st trimester?
