I am just wondering how many mummies actually have it or went through it before. Feel free to share here!
I had it when I was expecting #2 back in 2011. It came as a shock to me. It started when I was 6 weeks pregnant. I was vomiting 24/7 and could not keep anything down. Not even a sip of water. I was so badly dehydrated at one point that I had no pee or poo for a week. I lost 5kg and it got better from 20 weeks. And I gave birth to a healthy baby boy eventually.
This time round it is worse with #3. It started when I was 5 weeks pregnant. I lost 7kg by week 12. And I am into week 32 now but the terrible nausea which seems to have gotten better at week 24 is back again. Although it isn't as bad as the beginning, the mere thought or pictures of certain food or smell can send me to the toilet immediately. Right now even the smell of my hubby puts me off. It's been days since I last allowed him to come within 2m of my space. Sigh.. I feel so bad. I feel so tired of it. But he cannot understand. I don't expect him to since nobody around me can understand this too. Nothing works at all. Not the medication. Not the natural remedies for morning sickness. So far I have only put on 4kg while many fellow mummies are almost 10kg heavier than pre preggy weight already at this stage. I hope it's ok... Right now I cannot sleep. Because I can smell my hubby and it's so nauseating. Arghhh.. I don't want to puke at this hour. So here I am distracting myself. Thinking if I should sleep in the living room. Or I should chase hubby out instead. Lol. I think I will just lie still and wait for the next toilet break. Just ranting! I gotta stay positive and keep going. I am almost there already..
