Motion Headaches

I've finally figured out I get massive headaches from motion sickness.  Yesterday we drove up to visit grandparents, 2 hours up, 2 hours down.  My head felt like it was going to split open. Sometimes ginger ale, pretzels, and gingersnaps work.  Last night they didn't.  Because I'm pregnant I couldn't take Ibuprofen.  So I was feeling terrible.  Jessica massaged my head then Jaremy gave me a massage.  I'm so blessed to have a family who cares and helps me.  I don't know what I'd do without them.  I took a couple hot baths and just walked around in the dark house trying not to go crazy.  I'm grateful Heavenly Father has blessed us with hot water.  It is so soothing.  I'm grateful I know Heavenly Father is aware of my pain and loves me.  I ask Him to teach me what I'm suppose to learn from the pain.  I finally broke down and took some Tylenol so at least I could sleep.  Today I've felt pretty rough again.  I can't stand pain.  I want to help take away others pain.  I can't stand the thought of anyone having pain.

Bed Day

I've had a dull headache for the last 3 days. Today it got worse, so I went to bed for most of the morning. I feel better now. I'm grateful I could slow down and get feeling better. I read ginger can help headaches, so I took some with my stevia lemonade. About an hour later my headache was gone. I'm grateful I feel so good most of the time. I'm really blessed to be able to take of my family, exercise, and do the things I love even during pregnancy.

Jaremy and I are planning a get away to celebrate my birthday. We are probably going to drive up to Tony Grove and then hike home. We will spend the evening recovering with a nice dinner and a hotel room right here in Logan. Oh, it sounds so nice to me!!! I'm way excited!!! Oh, by the way, the hike is over 24 miles long. I hope I can do it! Hey, why not! I'm only 7 months pregnant!

I'm also excited for General Conference! I pray I can follow the prophet with a willing, faithful heart!
