Getting better
October 2, 2009I don’t feel a 100% better yet, but I’m getting there. Hirap talaga magkasakit. And it’s harder when you’re pregnant because you can’t take just any over the counter medicines. Believe me, I’ve tried everything before I resorted to taking medicines. From lemon juice with honey, vicks sa paa (got this from Pat), lukewarm water with salt gargle, hot compress on the throat, everything! But this damn cough keeps on bugging me (especially in the middle of the night)!
I remember the last time I was like this was before I had my medical examination as I enroll as a freshman at the University Philippines Manila. I remember it so well because I was so afraid that they wouldn’t let me enroll when they find out how sick I am. My father even scolded me that if I never get to enroll at UP because of me being sick, I’ll have to enroll at a local college instead! Seriously, I really thought UP would reject me just because of a cough!
Anyway, thanks to all who’ve wished me well. The baby’s alright (I hope). I can feel it moving more frequently now and it’s a relief when I feel it. Everything that the doctors prescribed to me was all safe for pregnancy (all are in Category A in the Australian categorisation of drugs). And I’m having another ultrasound next week to check the baby’s development (and hopefully the gender, yay!). Balitaan ko kayo. :p
P.S. Oh yeah, I’m gaining weight too even though I’ve been sick! Happiness! :p
