Plain but not ordinary

Saturday, December 15th, 2007

Soon, just right after Christmas, my student’s life will be back on track – the schedule seems to be tighter, the classes are heavier and I’m sure the burden will be more. Not much to complain though, but at least my nausea is about to ease bit by bit.

I’m still throwing up 2 days back especially when too much oily food is consumed or over devouring the food after I have let wind and gas filled up the empty tummy for some time. The doctor has been advising, “Don’t take too much food at one time, but rather eat little at several times.”

O dear, just as far as I can remember, none of the new eating habit used to be my favourite back then. And now, all I have to do is to practice a new routine which is not amusing at all. Although I used to be an obese at one time, but I have never been a couch potato. I just could not eat or munch every couple of hours! No way! But now, I have to and no wonder I have gained like 6 kilos since I’m pregnant!

I lost weight quite impressively when I was in my 2nd month. Thanks to all the vomitings, the loss of appetite and both seem to blend well in the month of Ramadhan, which adds another reason of my weight loss. But I gained back in the 3rd month and being statically steady as I reached my 4th. And now, I’m approaching to my 5th month, but being among the rare cases, my nausea a.k.a. morning sickness does not really fade that easily despite many people may find it ceases at the end of the 1st trimester.

But fortunately, as soon as my 1st trimester ends, my nausea is not as bad as before – I throw up only once a day or the day after another, which is not like before – nothing to keep for the baby and everything goes down in the toilet bowl.

The bad news now – I’m so not feeling well. Flu, fever and sore throat – a very right package indeed! I’ve just got back from my honeymoon, finally we had one! The weather is bad all over

 currently and I guess it has inflicted my health to turn out to be this way. It is very unwise for me to get sick, because right now, everything I have within me – my antibody and nutrients are meant for sharing and once I’ve got sick, it will be hard to recover due to insufficient supply. I just hope it will ease soon. I hardly breathe, can’t really taste or smell food and things around me. And the worse, I can’t smell his scent around me which I love the most! J

I’ll be back to Kedah to celebrate Aidiladha soon since my Aidilfitri was celebrated here in Klang. I just hope I will get well soon, to take up a long journey on an inconvenient ride. Keep on praying!
