That ginger lemon tea looks yummy—even for non-pregnant bellies.

I LOVE your red flats – so cute.

I’ve never tried the ginger-lemon tea combo before. Thanks for the idea!

Love your shoes! I always use ginger chews when I don’t feel well, they work miracles!

Ginger, a gift to all pregnant women in their 1st trimester. I loved, loved, loved real ginger ale–like Reed’s or Maine’s Root–during the 1st tri. Also, Traditional Medicinals makes a Ginger Tea that’s pretty good.

Hope you feel better!

I am forever not calling people because something else comes up, or I just clean forget. I know that makes me sound like a total flake but I make a point that when I do think of someone, or see something that reminds me of them to text them, tell them I am thinking of them or just sticking a card in the mail to them. The real mail. I love sending a card, and receiving them. So while I am not always in contact, I am always thinking of them and vice versa. Does that make sense?

Have you tried sea-bands for your morning sickness? They really helped me…

No words for how much I needed that Thought of the Day today. Thanks!!

I’m coming out of lurking to say that I am a sucker for inspirational quotes, and I usually like the ones you post, including today’s. Thanks for sharing them.

Yes, I tried for years and years either be a part of or not a part of a friend’s life and all it did was throw me down. I left it. Its exhausting.

Is that the Udi’s white or whole-grain sandwich loaf? I might try that next. How do you make your omelets?

I like toast dipped in yogurts with dippy eggs on side too. I have really weird combos at times.

I’m going to have to try that healing drink. Because my stomach is often mad at me and I rarely know why. Anything to calm it is nice.

This isn’t a great time for growing, anyway. So don’t worry too much that you don’t have tons of plants! It’s winter–everything is supposed to be a little brown and messy.

Good call on the ginger-lemon drink. I bet it helps a lot. I like to throw together lemon and cucumber in a pitcher of water. Deeelish – but probably not as tummy-helping as ginger.

LOVE that quote!

I wonder if that tea would work on hangovers too! 😛

I am jealous that you have been able to cook through your first trimester. All cooking and vegetables other than carrots made me gag/yak.

I am now almost 16 weeks, and just purchased spinach for the first time since week 5. I did a little happy dance in the store.

Loved the quote at the end. It hit the “nail on the head” for me. I recently had an “AH HA!” moment this week where that quote came to life for me!

I love ginger for upset stomachs too! I’ve heard even smelling ginger can help as well. I hope this phase doesn’t last long for you.

I ate the old fashioned ginger snaps all the time. They really helped my nausea when I was pregnant!

While I know that every woman’s pregnancy is different, GUM has been a life saver during mine. When I feel a little queezy I pop in a piece (Trident layers is my fave) and feel so much better. I also swear by it for the little bit of heartburn that I get.

I know it’s hard to think about it now, but it really does get better. And you already know that it’s totally worth it 🙂 So excited to follow along with your pregnancy!

That ginger tea looks amazing. I need to try that!

What a lovely rose. I was nauseous all day today and threw up in the car–not driving, thank goodness. I’m definitely going to try this the next time I feel nauseous.
