Have spent my time with God and ate some fruits.
Enjoying some refreshing piano music while collecting my experience for the past 4 days.
Today is the 5th day I learnt of my pregnancy.
Trying to write down my experience and make sense of them.
On days like this, when I have time to be quiet and ponder and pray about the pregnancy, to breathe slowly and to feel the life within me, it begin to make sense and real.
Most of the time when I am engaged at work or people, the pregnancy seems unreal. The time when I remember I am pregnant occurs during meal times when I find that my appetite is unlike the past. Cant swallow much and most food seems to have a bitter taste to me.
Changes occurring to me:
1. Always feeling bloated.
2. Cramps
3. Constipated (at times I am unsure if I am having cramps or just need the toilet)
4. Breast feeling swollen
5. Poor appetite
6. Bitter taste to most food
7. Need to eat more fruits bcos it is refreshing and it helps to alleviate the bitter taste in the tongue
8. Backache
9. Breathelessness
10. In wonder of God's creation of life
11. In amazement of God's gift of love
12. In appreciation of God's love through Paul
13. In gratitude toward God's continual protection.
14. In trying to settle in the motherhood mode!
Many more changes will continue to occur. So far so good! The coming 7.5months seems hopeful to me that my journey will be a interesting one.
O God, from the mouth of infants and child You ordain praise. I praise You this day, with the life You create within me giving You praise also.
