[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I had really bad morning sickness my entire pregnancy.
Morning sickness can be really debilitating.  There were some days I threw up 5 or 6 times.  After you throw up so much it really causes your stomach to hurt like hell and makes you feel dizzy and weak from the lack of nourishment.  I ended up hospitalized twice from it.

I threw up in restuarants, cars, on the train, all over the place.  It is one of the main reasons I haven't pushed for child number 2.

Your pregnancy is no indication of how hers should or will be.  Some people fly through pregnancy easy peasy, while others are bedridden the entire time.

Would you rather she come in the office and puke all over the place?  Maybe she can come in pass out and now your office is disrupted by a medical emergency.

Honestly, it sounds to me like you are just being insensitive and yeah I am sensing a little jealousy. Maybe you are mad all the attention isn't on you.[/quote]

Speculate much? [/quote]

This is not even CLOSE to what OP said. Jealousy? Major reading comprehension issues on this thread. She also said the co-worker isn't puking (knows because she told her). Please, people.[/quote]

It doesn't matter the reason, many people get very sick early in pregnancy for several reasons.  Plus people all handle sickness differently. 
If it's her first child, these new feelings may be overwhelming for her also.  Not only did I have bad morning sickness, but I felt ill all over.  When I was pregnant I always said it's the closest I think I've ever felt like death.  We had a girl at my church die during child birth from a heart attack, she was ill her entire pregnancy and continued to work full time plus help take care of two other children.

Op, needs to play her part and stop acting like she has an M.D. [/quote]
