Ancient Chinese Secret
Like countless skittish pregnant women before me, I idiotically wished for more nausea, and a benificent God has granted my wish. Sigh. No digestive events have occurred. Yet.
I am fighting back. Dr. Lee showed me the pressure point for nausea - inside of the wrist, three fingers down, and told me to get the Bioband. I have seen the Bioband before, on the wrist of a pregnant woman who swore by it and on the wrist of a fellow passenger on a cruise many years ago. He also swore by it.
While I am waiting for my Bioband to arrive, I am wearing this contraption consisting of an almond duct-taped to my wrist, (note the fashion white duct tape) secured by a rubber band. All I need is a Pauly Bleeker-style wristband to cover it all up.
It works, I feel considerably less barfy, and as an added bonus my hand hasn't turned black and fallen off yet.
