the road to fabulous

hyperacidity and heartburn

Tuesday, July 7, 2009

yesterday was absolutely the worst day i've ever experienced in my pregnancy. i don't know why i've been having hyperacidity when i'm eating constantly, but i am. and it's so extreme it renders me almost incapacitated. i can't think, i can't do anything, i just feel so miserable. i normally don't bother manuel when he's at work but yesterday i had to call him because i needed to cry out my pain.

i bought an antacid but it only made things worse. 10 minutes after taking it i was back to hugging the bowl. i don't know what else to do! i called my sister in australia and she said the only thing i can do is try to bear it. i still don't know how i was able to force myself to cook dinner and clean the house but i somehow did. i made sinigang with lots of veggies. sinigang is comfort food for me. by 8pm i was feeling better.

please let it be an isolated incident.

chi - thanks for the vote of confidence! i'm starting to call this baby my little dementor because it's sucking all the happiness out of me. why does being pregnant have to be so difficult?

hi mims, normal ra man kuno ang hyperacidity accdg to maia, some women really experience that. i think it got worse lang when i took antacids. now it's more tolerable. sige lang ko'g kaon small meals, crackers here, bread ba kaha, fruits...
