Of cravings & false labour pains..

Like the ticker states..i still have 32days to go to my due date.Well i do understand that due dates are ONLY a rough estimate.And machines aren’t always right especially when i cant even give my gynae a straight answer as to when was my last menstruation date.But still..it got me all panicky.
It all started on Tues night.Right after dinner..me & hub was resting watching TV while the lil one was running around with Bibik.Suddenly..resting on the once very comfy couch seems like a chore.I couldnt find a right position.With pillows to support my back..DIDNT work.Pillows underneath my tummy..DIDNT work either.Tummy was hardening every few minutes & im gasping for air.Im even starting to sweat.It continued till the wee hours of the night.It finally calmed down around 2am & i finally got my well
deserved rest.
I wokeup, optimistic, hoping it would be a better day. I was so wrong. After a cup of orange juice for my daily dose of Vit C , popping my calcium pills & a tbsp of olive oil..it started again. I couldnt remain still for 5mins. My heart’s palpatating , my tummy’s uneasy & the moment i got up from the bed , i felt like collapsing.And despite all this..all i could think of is munching my extremely cold ice cubes!!! So i got Siti to get me a bag of ice from 7-11 & gave in to my new found craving.

Cut story short..it all started from that fateful Tuesday.Ever since..i havent been too well.Its either this or that or all at once.Palpatations,vomiting,restlessness,breathlessness,tummy cramps,lightheadedness.And on the 1st episode..i actually thought i could be in labour..cos it was quite consistent.
Well all this got me very worried..u know being very close to the finishing line. I did some googling & found that the symptoms ( ice munching included ) could be a sign of anaemia.Could i be? I better give my doctor a ring…
