I'm hungry!

One sad thing about being pregnant is that you can't get everything you want. Not all the food you want to eat. :( Especially now that I'm under medication and under a low fat diet. Sheeesh..

THREE BLIND MICE

Three blind mice,
Three blind mice
See how they run,
See how they run!

They all ran after
The farmer's wife
She cut off their tails
With a carving knife
Did you ever see
Such a sight in your life
As three blind mice?

What's my rule again? DO NOT ARGUE WITH A PREGNANT WOMAN. So, if you hear any pregnant woman singing songs like this... hahah.. (like me!)

Just a tip, keep silent.

How EVIL can a pregnant woman get?! ahahaha


I woke up feeling bad about the world today. And...I don't know why. I have a lot of reasons in my mind but I just can't pinpoint one to say the least. It's plainly similar to having tantrums I suppose. I wanted to take my sight of my husband. And I mean HATING him.. for talking to me.. for helping me get the shell out of the hard boiled egg I had for breakfast.. for trying to open the comfort room door which I intended to lock... for EVERYTHING! I just hate him!!!! HATE HIM!!! GRRRR!!!

You might be laughing and all, but really - that's how I felt. And I kept on crying feeling that he is just so insensitive. (I suppose ALL men are AT TIMES?!) hahaha.. That's my rule. DO NOT ARGUE WITH THE PREGNANT WOMAN. You'll still loose. (Well, you're left with no choice.)

The people with us in the house were laughing at us. It seemed to them that we were just having a petty fight probably because of these damn hormones. :) MAYBE. Who cares?! You let loose when you're mad, and that's a good feeling. hahaha

I won't be saying much already before I get into the mood of hating HIM!!! ahhahahhahaah

Good Night guys!

Im SICK.. :'(

Most say I'm lucky for not having the early symptoms of pregnancy - morning sickness (which does not literally mean that it occurs in the morning!) BUT I say I am not. Missing the vomiting stage during my first term is a good thing. But the acute gastritis is NOT!

sharp, sudden, persistent stomach pain PLUS vomitting.

I happen to wake up at around eleven in the morning and unluckily having "ginataang gulay" (a vegetable soup with coconut -.) Without me knowing, I was taking in the very acidic coconut milk with an empty stomach. Minutes after that I was starting to have stomach aches. I did went off to work that day during the afternoon but I couldn't suppress the pain that continuously occurs at an interval of about 15 minutes. What's weird is that after the sharp sudden pain, you'll feel relieved like nothing happened. And it happens again. And again. AND AGAIN.

We had to go consult a doctor before my condition becomes worse. What we were worried about really is the baby that probably might be the one causing the pain or what. I was glad to find no out-of-the-ordinary discharge that pregnant women have because that indicates that there is really something wrong with the baby. Most especially when it's blood or discharges having a foul smell.

After enlightening the doctor of what happened earlier that resulted to this, she assumed that there is a great possibility that the "ginataan" was the one that caused such pain. She prescribed medicines that would relieve the pain I'm feeling and control the acidity of my stomach.

I had to take in a few bites of wheat bread before taking a second dose of the medication. And the vomiting started. It felt like it burned my throat! And we really felt the need to go back to our OB-Gyne. She referred us to a Gastro-Endomologist back at another hospital to have myself checked. She did ECG only to find out that heartburn is just the result caused by the acids in the stomach. She also checked my upper abdomen through ultrasound to further draw the line on what's causing this sharp pain. Thank God the results were okay, if not for the polyps inside my gall bladder. It could be brought about by pregnancy though or it may continue growing and develop into a gall stone. I hope its the previous one.

So ladies, be careful on what you choose to eat.
