Notes to self:
1) Trust your nose
Today I held a cheese roll in my hand and vaguely thought to myself that I didn't quite like how it smelt. I pushed this aside (I don't know why) because I've always eaten a cheese roll anyway and have always liked it and ate half of it. I stood up to talk to someone at the office and realized that my gag reflex was in full, uh... reflex (I think I'm making up terms here). Basta. I just wanted to throw up. So I ran to the bathroom and I did. :p I ate lunch today only cos I knew I had to, not because I wanted to. I miss the feeling of being hungry. I finally am now, maybe in anticipation of the great dinner awaiting me with friends. I just hope I don't feel like throwing up. Already I feel like there's something lodged in my throat. :p This actually started last night. I don't know if it's gonna get better or it's gonna get worse.
But you know, it's all good. Like I tell this growing baby in my tummy, he/she can make me feel as sick as much as he/she wants for as long as that means he/she is growing healthy.
2) No more watching of birthing videos.
Ok, not that I did this on purpose today. I happen to come across MTV showing "16 ang pregnant" (what a reality show) and the lead was about to be induced into labour. I don't know why I didn't/couldn't stop watching it, but I watched through the whole time she suffered through labour (7hours long) and then childbirth. I got queasy, like scared almost. But when the baby was pulled out (the dad help pull her out) and was placed on her chest, I had tears in my eyes.
So this either makes me scared or sentimental. All in all, in the interest of keeping sane and good vibes only (ie. not thinking of things until it's time to), I think I should refrain from any more of these.
ANYWAY.
Tomorrow is my doctor's appointment before I leave for the States for the holidays. I hope everything goes well. :)
