Hagen said her morning sickness started early on in her pregnancy and has still frequently made an appearance even late into her third trimester.
“To see her be so empathetic and caring at such a young age makes me feel like we’re doing something right as her parents.”
“Sometimes she [Rosie Hagen] will even pretend to be sick herself and tell us that she’s going to puke — and then yells from the bathroom, ‘Will you rub my back?’ as she pretends to throw up in the toilet,” the mom said.
