Over the weekend, i'm forced to go back to m'sia cos my mum & hubby gotta go back to pray my ancestors due to QING MING JIE & they REFUSED to let to stay alone in S'pore as they think is dangerous for a preggy to live alone w/o family members around. They NEVER expect is actually much better to just lock me up in S'pore rather than FORCING me to go back with them..
Maybe due to insufficient SLEEP, long hrs of travelling in a car & SUPER HOT weather in M'sia, i start getting unwell. I felt a sharp pain in my throat...likely due to dehydration..coz preggy woman always find toilet so i dare not drink much water during my trip with the worry of getting jam @ the custom due to Mas Selamat (luckily nvr jam coz we kiasu,start off v early) and scare that i always need to pee while my hubby drove along the highway.
I got worse when i reached M'sia. I took a nap ard 2pm in our bedroom, unexpectantly the room was super stuffy & HOT, i felt like a BBQ pig inside the room. But i'm too tired & desperate for a rest after 5hrs of travelling. End up, i started to get bad sorethroat, terrible headache & minor flu.
Later in the evening, the weather CHANGED! There was super heavy rain & i'm v cold indeed. Despite the weather, I gotta go out for dinner with my family. my god..my flu worsen & start to get bodyache in the middle of the nite.
Next day(Sun), we gotta travel back to S'pore...ANOTHER 5 hrs journey to SUFFER!! By the time we reached S'pore, im totally SHACK..can u imagine a preggy woman gotta travel a total of 10 hrs journey in a car in less than 36hrs (1 and a half day trip) and suffer major weather changes?!
Yesterday (Mon), i dared not visit doc coz i don't want my poor baby inside me to eat all the western medicine. i rested whole day at home with the hope of enough rest/sleep & water, i may recover slowly. I'm WRONG! I had a hard time sleeping cos my nose was blocked and need to keep blowing if not i need to use mouth to breathe while i sleep. My throat was SUPER dry so i keep waking up to drink lotza water & ran to toilet every 1-2 hrs. Moreover, my throat oso start to itch and keep cough while i'm trying to sleep. How to rest like tat??! Left with NO choice, i visit GP near my home at nite.
Today, my flu improve abit but my cough worsen..usually once my cough started, is V difficult to end it..v scary..Cough is my Nightmare!
This reminds me of my LAST cough was in early dec 07 when i stop blogging..it lasted for a MONTH! I din realised i'm pregnant then. So i ate one cycle of antibiotic,yet i still cough till my lungs were pain. i visited a sin seh & took chinese medicine to cure it. End up, it got worse & i cough til my lungs & back oso pain. So i went to see GP to take STRONGER dose of medicine & 2nd ROUND of antibiotic. By the time i finish my medi, i cough till i VOMIT..by then i REALISED i'm 6 weeks PREGNANT!! My god...what hv i feed my poor baby??!!!
