Why I Have Not Been Posting

Hello!

I guess I do owe an explanation as to why this blog has not been updated for such a long time.

Well I haven’t been feeling great lately and it’s because of this little fella……………………

Sucking his/her thumb, bouncing up and down in my womb.

Yes. This is Sunshine’s little brother/sister. He/she is now about 13 weeks old and has been causing me to vomit many days in a row, feel nauseous, feel dizzy (there is a difference, trust me), feel tired, have terrible backaches, experience palpitations etc etc.

Most of all, I have lost interest in almost everything in my life due to these hormonal changes. I have not been knitting much. Have not started sewing. Have not played computer games etc. I do the housework only because if I don’t, the house will stink and in turn cause me to vomit.

I have aversions to most food. I can’t stand the smell of most meat (I can’t even THINK of them! I will puke!). I cannot stand the smell or sight of onions. I can’t take a lot of veggies either.

I’ve been surviving on mostly fish (must be fried) and spinach. And biscuits.

I never experienced such bad symptoms when I had Sunshine. I only experienced dizziness and at the very most, nausea for just a day or two.

I really really hope these symptoms go off really soon. It’s a terrible terrible feeling. :(

I only hope in return, I get a healthy baby. That’s all I ask for. And I think I can safely say this will be the last baby we’ll have.
