Power through or call for backup?

Morning sickness is starting to kick in and I'm trying to get caught up on my housework. Hubby had to go in to work for a while and work on a case. Kids are staying at grandparents. Should I just power through or wave the white flag and call our cleaning service? 😳🤢

if you have a cleaning service, why would you ever clean again, morning sickness or not?

get yourself some ginger cubes from the health food store. helps heaps.

@pentacorn Normally I just have them come in and do deep cleaning once a month. I handle the day to day chores as I'm home.

@pentacorn I have such a hard time with ginger. I don't care for the taste but I can tolerate some ginger tea. It does help some. I get really bad morning sickness for the first 3 months. I usually lose about 10 lbs. 😢

@TheLittleMrs i see. well, have them come in, then. then get some ginger or "pregnancy pops", as mentioned above. (i bet the main ingredient is ginger)

@pentacorn I can do ginger if it's got other flavors. I'm def going to get some of those pops.

@TheLittleMrs awesome. hope they help. morning sickness is a big time bummer.

@TheLittleMrs same with me. the only time i felt well in the first 3 months was when i was asleep. it's hard to imagine how the baby gets what it needs when you can't eat anything.
