Pregnancy… the third time around

I am on my way to my 3rd month of pregnancy and just like my previous ones, I don’t feel anything but ordinary cravings. No morning sickness, no vomiting, no dizziness… nada… What is pretty obvious though is my extra appetite these days. I crave salads and desserts! I cannot exactly blame my pregnancy for my cravings. I attribute it more to me quitting smoking rather than pregnancy.


Sometimes I wonder if I am normal or not. I am grateful to be blessed with an uncanny ability to walk through pregnancy like a breeze… but there are also times when I wonder if all those pregnancy symptoms are really as bad as they say. Well, I guess it is OK because I cannot exactly escape the biggest and most painful dilemma of all- labor. Ugh…. the pain! I was wise enough to request for an epidural during my second pregnancy. Although it pacifies the pain a bit, you can still feel it somehow. Well I guess, the joy of seeing your offspring is absolutely worth it!
I am so wishing for a boy right now… But no matter, whatever God gives me I will embrace with open arms!
