Things I Never Bought Before

Since I found out I was pregnant there are a few things I've bought that I have never bought before. It's been a humbling experience on many levels.

First up is Tylenol. In my opinion I might as well take a sugar pill because Tylenol has never helped my headaches at all. But when those unannounced migraines (caused by hormones) strike you'll take anything. And Tylenol 3 isn't much better but it at least puts you to sleep.

Next up is Miralax. I won't go into detail because I imagine all of my blog readers are smart and can figure out why I would possibly need to buy this. Apparently this said problem is common among pregnant women. It's something no one warned me about ahead time. So for all you soon-to-be-pregnant women, consider yourself warned.





This product goes hand in hand with the Miralax. Miralax has side effects and this medicine helps those. PTL.

Ahhh...indigestion. You've been a bad friend to me. I've never had a problem with you before but now you visit me multiple times a day. Aren't you sweet?!?!

I should confess that I bought this because I burned my esophagus on some hot spaghetti. Nice going, Hillary. But being that pregnancy is known for heartburn, etc the healing process was definitely delayed. And I can tell this will come in handy later on as well.

Ok, so I've had sweetarts before but I never bought them in bulk like I do now. I always opted for chocolate candy but chocolate candy doesn't relieve the nausea. These beauties are my best friends right now. I have some close by at all times.

Coke has also become a new friend of mine. I hardly ever had any kind of a coke (I don't call them soda or pop and you shouldn't either) before I became pregnant. Now I love them. I don't want anything but coke. The only thing that makes a coke better is when Sonic adds a little cherry to it. Oh I could really go for one of those right now.

I'm sure as this pregnancy continues I'll have more "never bought" items. I'm eager to find out what those will be...
