Being pregnant and sick is…
dreadful! Gosh.. I wish someone had told me this one. It all started the day after I went back from year end family gathering at my grand. On that beautiful Sunday morning, I woke up with a hoarse voice! Nice start for a new year indeed. I went to church with the in-laws, ate at Bakmi GM and then… I started coughing like there’s no other day. Until today I still blame the MSG contained in the noodle.
We went back to Bandung that afternoon and I was feeling awful. For the whole week 9 of the pregnancy, the coughing didn’t cease. It even got worse during sleep. The continuous coughing caused serious sore throat and made me feel even worse Actually it wasn’t the sore throat that made me feel awful but the thought that the baby had some pressures every time I coughed. As much as I wanted to make sure that the baby’s ok, I didn’t go to see the doctor because I’m not allowed to have medicine anyway.
After three days of coughing and sore throat, I couldn’t take it anymore and finally turned to all natural medicine. Having honey, garling salt water 3x a day, drinking lime juice and having more sleep. They all worked! Hallelujah! My week of being sick was finally over and I was happily up and running again.
