Babi + Kingkong = ???

It is amazing how much pregnancy changes your physical body. I have often heard of how some women are just plagued by morning sickness or how their appetites turn a 180 deg. I have always heard these stories with a pinch of doubt. I always imagine being pregnant to be fun.
It was not until now that I know how true and terrible those stories are. Yep, I think I have all the symtoms that any pregnant lady could have.

1. Morning Sickness and Nausea
   Surprisingly, it hits me not in the monring but rather in the afternoon and lasts all the way through the evening. You get nausea when you are hungry, when you are too full, when you smell food or things that makes you puke (for me, its fish). Even pictures of fish dishes in cookbooks invite a wave of nausea.
2. Going to toilet frequently
   Yeah, i am visiting the toilet every half hour to pee unless I stop drinking
3. Sensitive Breast
   A little tender and sore now
4. Fever or elevated temperature
   Mom says it has to do with the baby, I am not so sure as I have never come across any written symtoms like this but yeah, I am having mild fever daily.
5. Faster Heartbeat
   Sometimes, I feel like I am hyperventilating although it is getting better now.
6. Sleepiness
   Really had it bad during week 5 and 6 but am much better now. Can't really tell anyways cos I am having so much bedrest recently.
7. Gas buildup, bloating.
   I am constantly burping specially after a heavy meal and it is definitely not pretty.
   Oh well, the symtoms are definitely getting better. Am looking forward to the second trimester when the symtoms are supposedly less.

Went to the gynae yesterday and heard the baby's heartbeat for the first time. It is only 1.16cm but we can make out a definite heartbeat, at least it is not just a sac anymore.

BTW, me and RH nicknamed it Bakong.........yeah, its not a pretty nickname and you must think we are horrible parents for naming him dat. It just came about one day while we were talking about the baby. RH calls me BABI sometimes instead of my name and I call him KINGKONG. So, Babi + King Kong = Bakong...........hahahahaha.

Sorry bb, we promise to give you a better name when you are born.
