"Breaking the Seal"

When you are in college at a party this has a very different meaning. For pregnant women suffering from morning sickness this is the point where you allow your body to do what you have been trying to prevent for months.

I remember a TV or movie where someone compliments a pregnant woman on her glow and she comes back with something snappy like, "oh shut up. It's just sweat and vomit". I have had two small incidents but this hit me this morning and kept me in the bathroom for a while. When I was done and checked my self in the mirror my face was bright read, tears and black mascara rivers were running down my face, and I was sweating.

Not exactly the pregnancy "glow" that I was expecting
