Bloating and Expecting
After my pregnant wife spent a long tiring day at the office, what I can do as a caring husband was preparing a good, delicious hot meal (which sadly, for a kitchen-impaired man like me, means ordering Chinese food from a restaurant downstairs).For all expecting husband out there who wants to show their support, that is what at least you can do to your loving wife so that she can arrive home, sit on the diner table, and appreciatively throw up on your shirt.
That is the nausea attack, which happens to most pregnant women, and usually starts on week 6, or anytime the husband comes home from the gym without taking the shower.
But fortunately, the case is not so bad with my wife. She still feels bloated and nauseous from time to time, but still manages to keep it inside, thanks to the many ginger-ish snacks that we prepared. These ginger drinks, biscuit and candy had a positive effect on settling disturbed tummy, and were causing her body to continuously burping, which cued me to grab a beer and showed her that I could do the same. It's not everyday that we have such gastric symphony in our house.
Unfortunately no scientist has ever found the cause of morning sickness in pregnancy. They do, however, found these facts:
1. Morning sickness will disappear on the fourth month
2. Or maybe not.
Some women in fact experiences morning sickness throughout the nine months. So I just hope that my wife will not be affected so much by the nausea. And that I can control my burping after a beer.
