Day 6 still awful
Hey Roni & Hezz. Thanks for your posts and concern.
Well, to let you know how it's going, it's still not going well.
Last night, after I drank my P&B shake, I immediately felt like I was going to throw up. I just made it to the toilet on time and threw up forcefully. It wasn't painful in any way, it just poured out.
I went to bed earlier than usual last night, and woke up at 4:30am feeling wide awake. But I stayed in bed coz the house was cold and my bed was so cozy. I lay there for at least an hour, thinking, aware of the fact that I was actually feeling pretty good.
But then I fell asleep and woke again around 9. I had to get up to make some phonecalls so I dragged out of bed and have felt weak ever since.
Also, I'm not supposed to have menstrual bleeding until another week, but I've been having small amounts of blood come out already. This is unusual for me.
I should say that yes I have been using limes with my lemons. And hey, I don't think it's gross at all to drink a little bit of straight maple syrup. I do the same thing myself. And I also have had a bit of blackstrap molasses here and there while I make bottles of milk for my 16-month-old son (he refused to nurse anymore on his 1st birthday, so I give him cow's milk, with a bit of molasses added for iron). Still makes no diff in my energy.
At least I'm not craving cheese right now, but I'm so tired, food isn't on my mind so much as sleep is.
I'm going to go lay down for a nap now while my baby naps. Maybe I'll feel better in awhile.
