About this episode
This pregnancy is really hard. It is not as easy as pie at all. Whenever my friends ask me to dress up and go out I would always ruin their plan because I have to make a pit stop at the restroom every time. Even though I am in my third trimester, I am still not enjoying my food because I would always feel like I am going to puke. But usually, at nights, my nausea would subside, so I would immediately go to the kitchen and pig out since I haven’t had anything to eat during the day. Sometimes I even feel like I am a basket case and I am going to go bananas. I get carried away if things are not as I want or as I plan. However, what I love about myself is that I am aware of everything. I am aware that the health of my baby and I are my number one priority. That’s why I try my best to hold my horses when it comes to work since I am a workaholic, and I tend to overwork myself. I am keeping it down as much as possible. I want to have a pretty pleasant experience with my pregnancy and my delivery day. I don’t want to be a chicken, I need to work it up. I need to go with the flow without stressing myself out about anything. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/wafa-damlaj/message Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/wafa-damlaj/support
