Onak Kuwek's ETA

The calculation is 40 weeks from the last menstruation Day-1. That would be 28 Dec 2006. The calculated due date: 4 October 2007.

This is the snapshot of what the baby looks like at week 9 of pregnancy. The black Bean Bag is the baby's liquid cocoon. The baby is in the cocoon. Measuring merely 2.28 cm. We saw the heart beating already.

Doctor said, he can only find one baby... so Samak Kuwek's wish may not be granted this time...

The Symptom: Nausea & Vommiting

My poor appetite is making me very hungry. Have not been interested to eat rice. Last time I MUST HAVE RICE at least once a day.

Last night I only chow down 2 pieces of Indian "puri" with potatoes. This morning, there's nothing to vommit out. But the vommiting must go on. So, I discovered a new thing today. What came out was Yellow Bile. Yikes!! It's so bitter! Yeah.. it's the digestion juice produced by the liver.

So what I do now, I eat whatever I can eat, whenever I want. But I must eat.

I wonder what is the connection between the hormone rage during pregnancy and the vommiting. Apparently the hormone causes activity imbalance within the gastrointestinal system. Studies still ongoing - the medicine society is still not sure. Lots of 'maybe' in the articles that I came across so far. Some links I found writing about this topic.
