Today, I woke up with the worst headache of my life. I didn't get it from drinking, but rather from puking 6 times off the side of a fishing boat. Fishing was the one thing my husband wanted to do while on vacation, even though I'm 3 months pregnant and have a bad stomach. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I have a horrible hangover. My mom also decided it was a good day to go hiking. I ended up puking on the trail. FML
Today, I took my first holiday from work in over 6 months as it was my birthday. Today was also the day I woke up and vomited violently for 10 straight hours as a result of food poisoning. FML
Today, during a boat trip with my boyfriend's family, I got seasick and went to the side of the boat to puke. A current rocked the boat so badly that I fell overboard, prompting a panicked rescue and my boyfriend's mom muttering that I'm a pathetic attention whore. FML
Today, I learned that pregnancy makes me more prone to migraines, but the only pain killer I can take makes me vomit. So I have to choose between being in pain and vomiting for hours on end. FML
Today, my boyfriend and I went on a 1 day cruise to the Bahamas. It happened to be on the same day of the worst sailing conditions. We spent 6 hours throwing up together. Him into the sink, and me into the toilet. We spent $200 to see the inside of our cabin's bathroom. FML
Today, I discovered what it feels like to be extremely constipated while having a vomit-inducing migraine. FML
Today, I was consoling my drunk husband as he violently emptied his stomach contents into our toilet. One particular retch made me nauseous, and I vomited all down his back, causing him to turn his head and vomit all over the wall. I got to clean it all up. FML
Today, my head has been killing me. I've had the worst headache ever. Happy that I could finally sleep, I plopped onto my bed and bashed my head on the wall. FML
Today, I was having horrible morning sickness. I was violently throwing up, could hardly breathe, and was gasping for air between each round of puking. My husband, in the other room playing video games, snapped and shouted, "Why can't you just be quiet?!" FML
Today, I'm finally visiting my long-distance boyfriend in his home country. He has a vomit-inducing migraine, and the traditional food he fed me triggered the worst kidney attack I've had in years. We're both lying on the couch writhing in pain. Yay, quality time together. FML

Where was the vacation spot? Could you not hang out somewhere else while he went fishing? That's what my mom always did, my dad would go fishing on a boat, and she would hang out on the beach, or do her own type if excursion, like shopping or sight seeing.

I'm so sorry, that time in pregnancy is so unpredictable and gross. Hopefully you'll start to feel better soon.

If it was just an excursion, send him on his own next time. Take that time to do something you enjoy.

If he wanted to so badly why didn't you just let him go for a few hours by himself & not subject yourself to that?

Yeah, this situation isn't acceptable. Vomiting that much dehydrates you to possibly dangerous levels, PLUS you're pregnant. He can either go fishing somewhere that is not a boat, so you won't be seasick, or he can go do it by himself. What's worse, someone being bored or someone being violently ill? He should understand.

He probably was planning on doing it by himself but his wife nagged until he gave in. And once he kid is born it's not unlikely that he won't be able to go fishing until the kid is old enough to come with and hold a pole, which is probably a few years.

Before going on vacation you have to ensure you're both on the same page with things you want to do. Right now, you're making your hubby out to be an insensitive prick, but it could just be you who insisted on going. Either way, don't go on vacations if you have different ideas of what to do. Also, accept that you can do different things on a vacation, that way you're not forced into something you don't want to do.

You didn't have to go on the boat. I'm sure you could have found something else to do.
