Suffering at work

Just started at my new job for 3months and I also found out I’m preg after I joined the company, so I’m 3months rn. My nausea is really bad that food smell, transportation and essential oil triggers it or even not doing anything I can feel nauseous too. Worst thing is my mentor at work is giving me a really hard time even know she’s aware that I’m preg and her usage of essential oil is giving me a hard time as well. I did feedback to my manager abt the stress and anxiety I am receiving from my mentor but tbh there isn’t much she can do plus she isn’t willing to extend my wfh anymore.. I can’t sleep well at night and I can’t eat well due to the nausea too. Idk what to do…do I hang on at work or do I resign? But resigning means short of income…. #advicepls

First trimester morning sickness is the worst! I totally understand. do bring sweets along with you and eat it when you feel a nausea. I personally eat skittles to manage my nausea. and eat in small portion even if its 2 3 spoons of food. eat every 2 hours. doesn't matter if its just small portion. it helps to curb the nausea. vomit if u need to. your body is going through changes. you just vomit and eat. your body will do the rest. it should get better by week 10 onwards.
