It has been an awfully long time since I was last here and posted anything of any value – three months would you say? This time around it ALL my blogs and not just my personal one. I completely went off twitter as well as I concentrated on making myself feel as comfortable as I could. I would apologize profusely, but this time around I actually have a valid reason.

Hello!

This was the reason why I have been unable to cook for the past three months (can’t stand the smell of raw meat), feel so sick at night (morning sickness my behind) and just sleep and eat whenever I get the chance. In fact, I still do that…seems to need loads and loads of rest. No bentos for me either, I could barely cook dinner let alone lunch….so poor bacon have been doing all the cooking and cleaning and letting me nap. When I go out, all I want to do is come home and crash in bed…..extreme tiredness is one of my symptoms. It’s been quite unpleasant, but it was mostly due to my incessant worry that something might be wrong. Apparently the worst is behind me now…so I’m looking forward to some months of somewhat feeling more myself than I have done in the past few months.

Probably being off the caffeine is not helping with my tiredness…there is just so much that you’re supposed to limit your intake of or just cut straight out of your diet. I don’t really mind things like liver and certain fishes, but caffeine limitation is not one of my favourite. You’d think that after avoiding it for two months (had no idea during month 1) that I’ll be completely off it…but no. I’m still sleepy, and crave for coffees, teas and chocolate. Yeah you didn’t know chocolate contain caffeine huh? So does soft drinks. I have been going de-caf but even that contains some caffeine. Sucks. I can replicate the taste but not the effect!

Other than the random bits of being uncomfortable, me & bacon are looking forward to welcoming our new addition in January. We’ll hopefully be finding out the gender in the next 6 weeks or so – buying items for team yellow is just too hard! We both have an inkling that it’s going to be a boy. Nothing scientific, just a feeling….but we’ll find out in about 6 weeks!!

PS: Yes I still have loaddds of pictures of China. And no, this was not made in china
