Freaking Tacos

6.1.19

Today was a harder day. I woke up with the worst headache and of course, it being Saturday, we had so many errands to run. We woke up early (earlier than we normally do on weekends) and got going right away. Big mistake. I should have stopped to get something to eat because my head was pounding by 10:00.

By about 12, I could barely keep my head up and I was trying to sleep in the car because I felt like we were on a rollercoaster.

Fast forward and my husband and I go to a restaurant for lunch. FINALLY! Tacos, perfect right? I get my order in, so excited for a steaming plate of chicken tacos… and the minute the waitress sets them down, I feel my stomach turning. I can barely look at the freaking tacos without feeling like I was going to puke right on the table. Across me sits my husband, happily eating his enchiladas (which by the way are even more repulsive looking than my tacos.) And I think he’s even a little annoyed with me not eating my food. He does not get it.

So my question is: is this normal? Or is this all in my head? I’ve been doing research, a lot of research, on morning sickness and the first trimester, and it seems a couple of weeks too early for that. Now I’m left wondering if I read so much about it that I’m just making myself feel sick about food, like a placebo, except not a positive feeling. Also, if I feel worse later into this trimester than I felt this morning, I’m in for it soon.

UPDATE: It’s 10:22 PM, and I finally ate the freaking tacos.
