14th week

Filed under: Pregnancy, Second Trimester — Premalatha @ 8:07 am

Do not feel too tired. 

Do not feel hungry all the time. I actually feel enough and stop eating sometimes.

Do not have nausea.

Wind issue is subsiding.

Back pain is less but is there.

Have cravings for burger and fries. Do not like pizza.

Just since yesterday pungent food does feel pungent. Otherwise I have been eating hot food like sweets when TOH was having tears in his eyes.

Have constant pain in the pelvic bones since last week.

Feeling a lot better these days. More active than previous weeks.

Bloated

Filed under: First Trimester, Pregnancy — Premalatha @ 12:01 pm

My tummy looks too big and I have severe back pain. I can’t walk for more than ten minutes. I can not bend and do things. For Godsake, I even breathe heavily when talking! I feel like I am fully pregnant. Midwife says, some do get it like this and it is the wind, she says!

I did not have perfectly flat tummy before, but it wasn’t too bad. After the laparoscopy, it was bloated and was bigger all the time. But the doctors told me that for some people it may take few months to subsiding down. Ahh, the joy few got in seeing me disfigured! They did not miss a single chance to be nasty at me, I tellya. :-) Knowing how great I am ( ;-) ), I obviously forgave them, after all, their simple head didn’t give them a clue that they were actually flattering me by doing what they did. So I enjoyed. :-)

Now, I am fully bloated. I do not know this is the laparoscopy gas still hasn’t subsided down, or it is simply the case of one type of pregnancy issue.  Anyway. It is TOH who suffers, as he has to do a lot of work himself. 

If any of the mommies or preggies who read this blog had/has similar problem, please give me tips. It will give me the I am not alone feeling first of all.  Thanks in advance.

Eating habits

Filed under: First Trimester, Food, Pregnancy — Premalatha @ 11:42 am
  1. I munch all the time. Alternative to my caffeine fix.
  2. I don’t mind yogurt everyday. I don’t hate yogurt, but I can’t bear to see it for  consecutive day, until now. Now I can have yogurt everyday. But, it has to be just once a day. I need my apple pickle to get that yogurt rice down my throat. (cooking apple, pickled similar to mango pickle, made fresh with salt and chilli powder with garnishing).
  3. Give me any fruit. I can inhale it.
