It’s said that no pregnancy is the same as another, mine was quite straightforward, in the sense that it started with terrible nausea, fatigue, and heart burn from the third week of conception. The only moments when I'm not sick is tied to how much I sleep and how much I eat, which means that I eat often (and a little, that my stomach is cramped badly), about every two hours, and I sleep as much as possible (about 8 hours, I can't do more, that at 3 am the belly boss liked to do stretching exercises). It's been a little better for the beginning of the second part of my second trimester, in the sense that I don't have pure lava in my gut in the morning, but the nausea is still with me from the moment I open my eyes until I lie in bed. I can't eat raw fruits and vegetables, I don't get too many sweets and dried fruits. I prefer cooked food and tomato…
