With some confusion! Is the beginning of the 13th week or the 14th week equivalent to the beginning of the second trimester? (because all months are not February). Hahaha! :D
Also, the nausea still remained, along with occasional vomiting and feeling low-low. When will I have energy....whennnnn?
Poor Mayuresh still had to cook and clean, although I did help him a bit with other chores now, especially those outside the kitchen.
I had also eaten out a few times now: Noodles and Company, Montri Thai, Subway, Chipotle, and of course, Samosas and Chaat. Thankfully it all went down well.
Slowly, as the 4th month began to end, the nausea almost disappeared. I still felt a little queasy on an empty stomach, and was super-sensitive to smells. But the ability to be inside the kitchen and to tolerate the smell of hot oil was quite a relief.
Of course as one problem ends, another starts. (How pessimistic and cynical am I! hehe) I started feeling pressure and a little pain while sitting down, standing up, and while moving from side-to-side while lying down. The doctor said it was normal, but I guess she meant it like "Pain during pregnancy? of course it is normal!" :D
The 4th month also marked the end of my ability to wear regular jeans and tops. Bless maternity clothes and bless my dear friend Pradnya who sent me an awesome gift card of a specialty maternity store! Who knew maternity shops were so evolved? Not only do they have awesome, stylish, and practical maternity clothes ( no more loose clothing that makes you look like a scarecrow!), but they also have these cute little prosthetic baby bumps in their changing rooms so that you can check how the clothes will fit you in your later months of pregnancy. It's so funny, when we are not pregnant, we hardly give any thought to these things! :D
The 4th month also marked the beginning of the diabetes saga. You can read more about that in the next post.
