There are only 32 weeks to go! I feel a little off now as my body begun adjusting to my baby growing inside of me. The fatigue and increased appetite are among the first sensations I noticed during this week. I'm starting to eat more, but trying to eat better. I'm taking my prenatal vitamins everyday and Im still thinking what other supplement should I add to my diet. Now that I'm in my second month of pregnancy, I find myself a little more nauseous, and a lot hungrier for weird combinations of food. I'm starting to watch my weight too as my baby grows, I will definitely gain too!
The smell of cooking oil, the aroma of frying onions, unusual scents and odors keep me away from cooking. I once tried cooking Fried Chicken and what resulted was a salty charfried chicken, the only way you can eat is pulling off its skin. Then I cooked Sinigang na Bangus, that not even tasted good, I wonder where my talents in cooking went. So after that, we just decided to take our dinner outside or any meal for that matter.
Also during this time, I feel a little bit old, I feel like HS student constantly worrying and washing to combat pimples. I know its not yet worst and hoping it won't get worst, but the only thing that I could apply on my face is the facial cleanser soap that is just recommended for pregnant moms to use, other than that is prohibited including hair spa and colourings, foot spa and others which is obviously disgusting.
Aside from breast changes, tenderness and fullness, frequent urination, fatigue, I also find myself constipated at some times and occasional headaches too. I also felt some palpitation lately which I suspect could possibly be related to my Goiter. I will definitely ask it to my ob-gyne.
On April 11th, I received an email from Storknet dot com regarding my Application for Becoming a Pregnancy Journalist. Their journals are selected amongst those who applied to write their real life journals about their pregnancy.

Hi Carmela, I'm sorry to take so long to get back to you. My son had surgery to remove
a tumor from his head; he's fine, but I'm running way behind.
If you're still interested in doing a journal with us, let me know and I'll
send you the details.
Warm regards,

For me, its a privilege to write for Storknet dot com! But then again, I need to think twice before accepting the offer because its really a commitment more than anything.
