Working with Morning Sickness
Hello! I am 7w3d and STRUGGLING with morning sickness which makes being at office super difficult most days. I have worked a couple hours at home just in the morning so I can stop dry heaving/vomiting before I come into work, but some days are unbearable and I feel like I’m just not as effective at the office because I’m so concerned about getting sick while here. Also having to hide it from people (my boss knows) is hard because how do you explain wearing sea bands when you’re not wearing a long sleeve shirt.
Any other mamas out there in this situation that navigated this with your boss/workplace? I feel guilty asking to work from home when I feel really nauseous/am vomiting, but I feel like I get better work done at home when I feel like walking garbage. I work at an essential business and have my own office which helps, but the walls are thin so people can hear everything including gagging 😑
