End of 2nd Month

Akhirnya testpack lagi di H+14 garisnya 2 dan tebal! Jadi insyaAllah hamil.

At the end of week 6 after I tested with a thick line I called NUH to make an appointment. I was shocked. I asked for rates. It's like... 50% more expensive from 4 years ago! I used to go to Dr. Su Lin Lin. Now for first appointment she's charged S$130. For 5th month package onwards it's S$986. That is really double compared to 4 years ago which was only S$550. Well, she is now one of the senior consultants.. that's why her charges went up. So I decided to go to Dr. Anita. During the time that Dr. Su was away she was the substitute doc, and when I gave birth she was my delivering doctor. And I felt comfortable with her. PLUS her charges is cheaper. For first appointment the charges is S$110. For 5th month package onwards it's S$770. BUT she only has slot on 9th JUNE! I called on 5th MAY which means I have to wait 1 month. By the time I go for my first appointment I will be almost 11 weeks InsyaAllah.

So some recaps from my last 3 weeks..

Week 6

Still no sickness. I had a craving for meat in this week. But I could only eat a small portion of food. Once I overeat it will go back out. But if I keep it minimum I'd be fine. I tend to cry than get angry. Constipated as usual despite the fact that I have fruits for breakfast everyday.

Week 7
Some queasiness but still bearable. Doublemint candies help me fight the queasiness. I start taking some obimin since I feel my brain is jumbled up. But I only take it every 2 days, cos everytime I take it I'd feel nauseous the whole day. In this week I too feel more tired than usual at night. Durinng the day I was still good.I also get light headed especially from sitting/laying down to standing position. I think my blood pressure was very low.

Week 8

My worst sickness week by far. The nausea is worse at times that either I eat or not it's still there lasting the whole day. Now during the day especially during a day out on weekends I tire easily as well but in the office I'm still good. I have random cravings, but mostly I like salty things. For now I'm staying away from chocolates. This weekI don't vomit much but I have no appetite... I just eat to survive LOL. This week I'm also experiencing vivid romantic sexual dreams which left me aroused when I'm awake. *sigh*. Still constipating, I pass motion every 3-4 days and it just takes forever to slide down! I'm starting to get that weird taste in my mouth as well. Worse during the night. I can't drink the tap water at home but the NTU water fountain is refreshing. So I bought distilled water for me to drink at home. Sometimes I get nauseous from morning to night, sometimes morning is better. I lost 1kg this month. I'm usually excited to eat meat, and other unhealthy food but my stomach doesn't like it. I'm also getting some slight headaches every now and then. Felt like having heartburn the whole day within this week.

By the end of week 8 I finally feel so pregnant. I'm queasy the whole morning and night. My tummy is bloated. If I'm too tired my tummy would feel funny. I burp like almost everytime. I have migraine that lasted the whole day no matter what I did. I feel tired all the time! I practically dragged my feet everywhere because I'm just tired.
