Normal.... Not

This past 2-3 weeks has been really tough. Nausea and vomiting is the order of the day. Morning, noon, evening, night sickness. When I thought those has subsided, it returned with a vengeance. I can't seem to hold down anything that I managed to eat. Eating something is difficult enough... and then throwing it up again and again till there's nothing left... sigh! I can't seem to stomach rice much now. The only thing that I can eat this past few days is Yong Tau Foo Soup. Then, I can't bring myself to eat it anymore. Now, I'm at a lost of what to eat. Milk & yogurt is also out for now. The thing is, whatever I can stomach became the opposite when I throw up after eating them. I can't wait for my appetite to return to normal. I lost weight when I saw my gynae last week. Baby seems OK Alhamdulillah.

I truly didn't expect things to be this bad. And then friends started to share they experience the same thing up to 5-6 months. Really? I do hope I get better after the first trimester. What I do expect though, is a more caring hubby. Asking how I am ever so often, sympathize or pretend to sympathize with my condition, tapau food if I'm too weak to eat out, ask if there's anything I feel like eating despite not much appetite, make sure I eat before I get too hungry and nausea kicks in.... and things like that. What's not in the list are washing dishes and clothes, cooking, hang and fold laundry, clean house... but I truly appreciate when hubby did some of the household chores. I still managed to do the most urgent chores slowly. I have to choose my daily battle carefully.

Tonight I do feel like going out for a while. I've been cooped up at home when hubby's not around. I thought maybe I could try McD's small chicken porridge or KFC's whipped potato for dinner. But, I have to settle with some biscuits as dinner. Hope things get better tomorrow.
