What next... ??? - Week 11

Trying to deal with the constant sickness I am starting to really get put off food, grocery shopping was becoming a nightmare as I either didnt want to eat it or the thought of it made me feel sick. Kane who's least favourtie job is the groceries would get a little frustrated at me as I could never decide what food I might be able to manage. Half of the time I picked at my dinner which he would also get frustrated at me saying "you need to feed those babies!" easy to say and you think eating is generally something you do without thinking.

For the people who dont me I am or should I say used to be a big food eater!! I love all food and always had a massive appetite for most foods that were prepared for me. I feel like ive lost my self identity... I know it sounds silly but it really was a chore to eat and drink, the only reason I forced myself time and time again was the sake of the babies that were growing inside me. It was like being a fussy little child and Kane saying to me "Two more mouthfuls" or "You haven't touched your veges". At the time I could have slapped him but I knew he was looking after me and the wellbeing of his children.

Sometimes I thought I was feeling up to eating more and tonight was one of those nights.. Nachoes (Mine and Kane's favourite meal). I hadnt felt like them for such a long time but tonight we decided we would give them a go. At the time I was really enjoying them but it didnt take long for that to change.. Too many flavours garlic, tomatoe and the corn chips were not a great combination and I dont think I need to go into the details but they sure did not come up great either... I felt like I had vomited my whole insides up and was left with a massive headache. Off to bed I went for a good nights sleep. The next morning I woke up went to the bathroom and then noticed my eye... Blood shot, thought maybe just from my headache it will go away...

Well it didnt, and I was not stuck with not quite a blood shot eye more a whole red eye!! The children at my centre asked me if I was becoming a vampire... or a zombie. At least they could see the funny side to it. Other people would look at me and say "Shit!! What happened to your eye?" As I hadnt told a lot of people I was pregnant at that stage I had to brush it off, I really felt like saying I cant stop vomiting and this is what happens!! I had to end up seeing an optomatrist to check behind my eye.. In the end it took a good 3 weeks to heal.

Here are some lovely pictures of my eye approx 2 weeks after it appeared... First time I had burst blood vessels from vomiting and I was hoping like anything it would be the last.

My belly at 11 weeks starting to take shape...
