Well, I’m into week 10 of my pregnancy and well, it’s still horrible… i.e. I’m taking Primperan as per doctor’s orders, but still:

1. Water tastes horrid (and I love my water )

2. If it’s too cold… I vomit

3. If it’s too hot… I vomit

4. If I’m thirsty and I drink water… I gag! Sometimes vomit

5. If I do more than three activities in one day, I vomit

Are we getting the picture here? My doctor told me that he’d rather not give me anything else and if I can handle the nausea and gagging here and there, it’s just a couple of more weeks left… so I caved in and told him… ok I can handle it… don’t know if I’ll regret my decision later this week, but it’s all for a good cause

Next week the doctor will be measuring the baby to assess high risk… since I’m turning 38 this year, I am considered a high risk pregnancy and well, the baby is at high risk for being born with down syndrome. Inshallah Khair… more on that later… for now, I just have to bear with the gagging and vomiting!

Heard the baby’s heartbeat last week…. AMAZING… so exciting… can’t wait to find out if it’s a boy or a girl!
