week 12- i'm a zombie

i was so delighted that i finally reached 12 weeks of pregnancy, meaning that the nightmare of morning sickness/motion sickness will be over soon as i'm entering my 2nd trimester...but that didn't happen...after my fever subsided, i had a little bit of cough  and runny nose, and i had to go through bad traffic jams in the morning to go to work at the Sg Besi Toll and that caused me to have giddiness and i was retching all the way..i ended up resting and sleeping in my postgraduate room as i couldn't drive myself to the clinic i am attached to...i felt nauseated and couldn't eat much...everything tasted bitter...i'm not sure if all these symptoms caused by taking too much roasted pumpkin the day before cooked by masterchef sister...she made roasted chicken with roasted pumpkin and cheesy portabello mushroom..people said pumpkin can cause wind and retching...

it continued for a few days and i felt helpless...i can't do much of my work...this was the worst week ever...i started to feel my uterus at the suprapubic area...but the whole baby bump started to show off and i can't fit into normal trousers/sarung anymore..so i ended up wearing loose pants with gutter around the waist and i even wore the maternity pants (even though it's kind of loose)..

dear hubby took me to Madam Kwan's for dinner one day as i was craving for the food earlier...i ordered the assam laksa and i ended up adding 2 sachets of sugar into the gravy...i felt it was too sour and tasteless...but even after i added the sugar it was none better...

Imtiaz will turn 3 next week...he weaned off totally but occasionally still asking for mama's milk...then i had to console him and hug him as usual then he would be off running around playing with his toys...i'm proud to be able to give him the best from my 2 boobs for the past 35 months without any supplementation of formula milk...and he is growing well and healthy and as cheerful and cheeky and smart as ever...

i really hope for a better week next week...i have lots of thing to do and i need to be well...
