Eversince I got my first bout of morning sickness since week 8 of the pregnancy, I never liked drinking plain water. The sight of plain water sends nausea down my guts instantly. I only like flavored water but it must be unsweetened water coz anything that’s sweet also made me nauseas. So what I do now everyday is put sliced lemon, fresh strawberries or fresh ‘kam quat’ in my mug of water so that the water has a fruity smell and taste.
From gulping down 16 glasses of plain water a day pre-pregnancy, I can only force myself to drink a max of 8-9 glasses of water now. No wonder I’ve got so much zits on my face now. Also, without sweating and exercising, all the toxins are not released from my body. How I hate those ugly zits on my face that’s once flawless and smooth!
I also like to drink diluted unsweetened organic cranberry juice and promegranate juice with acai berries, goji berries, cherries and other berries. Occasionally, I drink decaffienated tea like Chamomile tea, Peppermint tea and Citrus Lemon tea.
I’m into my 15th week of pregnancy now and the morning sickness has subsided but I still feel nauseated after each meal, when I’m hungry or when I’m tired or sleepy. I just can’t wait for the 38th week to arrive. If everything goes smoothly, it’s going to be another elective c-section for me at week 38 as I’ve had c-section for my 2 previous pregnancies too.
