Today, my morning sickness decided to show itself every time I smell coffee. I work at a coffee shop. FML

GothicAngel17 tells us more.

Seems like the best solution so far. I think I might actually try that when everything opens again.

I've bean there. A latte times I just wanted to go home. I could tell there was some nastiness brewing inside me. Remember, if you are feeling sick and need to go home, talk to your manager and espresso self.

Guess the last thing you'll want to do is "wake up and smell the coffee..."

Of course, they grow back very quickly. You don't? I thought that was how we all handled these types of things.

Wow, I think number 21's question was thoroughly answered.

Keeping some small carb snacks like crackers handy and ginger caps will help ease the nausea. Try focus on mouth breathing maybe so you smell less? Morning sickness is one of those rare times I'm glad I lack a sense of smell

this is all good advice. 4 for you glen coco

Vitamin b6 or b12 is supposed to help as well

Take the afternoon or evening shift. Problem solved and I'm not even an OB/Gyn

Actually "morning" sickness is only a technical term. My morning sickness lasted morning until night, every day, every night. It sucked.

In that case, the OP will either have to quit work or quit being pregnant. Pouring coffee is a highly technical skill that only few can master, yet society relies on their expertise. On the other hand, most females can get pregnant anytime they want.

But what if it's a place that sells coffee all day long? As most restaurants do. Person above me is right. I'm 15 weeks and mine lasts all day, usually gets worse at night for some reason :/

#58, get a new job or go on bed rest and start your maternity leave early. No one wants coffee fom a puking barista.

#59- it's not my FML. I was speaking from my knowledge as a fellow expectant mother. Not to mention, I have the luxury of being a stay at home mom. Just pointing out that morning sickness can be all day sickness. And that OP works in a coffee shop so the shift isn't going to matter.

The point here being perdix knows little about pregnant women and morning sickness is a cruelly optimistic name

#79, or that I post comment to get giggles and not to dispense legit medical advice?

In the case of making fun of pregnant women for "giggles"......beware.

Perdix I was not trying to insult you, merely I was hoping to get a giggle of my very own to love and to care for, you have so many and I so few, would it truly be too hard for you to spare one? :P

perdix 29

Oh, bizarre, don't be modest, you get many giggles. If you feel like you don't get enough, I'll ghost-write for you. I'll copy your pic and use it on my new account, bazaar_wtf.

Lol *bows* much obliged, thank you

Take for a day off or ask your boss if he/she will let you take a couple of mins off least until your sickness pass
