Morning Sickness

If you conduct a survey among pregnant women about the nastiest symptom of pregnancy, this would probably be in the top 3. I would even bet that morning sickness would come out the winning answer.

From my own experience, I was having nausea a lot, but fortunately, not a whole lot of actual vomiting. I remember eating a lot of tocino back then. Specifically, tocino that was cooked in a way that the covering became sort of caramelized, almost burnt. Tocino that wasn't cooked like that made me nauseous (Yeah, weird.)

Another weird thing is that morning sickness doesn't only occur in the mornings. It can be present at any time of the day, whether you've just waken up or preparing to go to sleep. But many women report that their symptoms are a lot worse during the day.
