I had my first "merlion" last Friday since i got pregnant.. It's amazing how i have yet to experience any morning sickness or vomiting even though i am already 26 weeks now..
But last Friday, i came down with food poisoning.. Or at least that was what i thought i was suffering from. I started my 12-hour cycle of vomiting and diarrhea from 3am on Friday.. At first i thought it was due to my over-eating at the Penang food buffet the night before, but it got worse after that, and i didn't get to sleep the entire night. Basically, it was like lao sai, then followed by merlion, for god knows how many times.. The next morning, K took me to the clinic below our house. The doctor didn't help much, except ask me to drink 100 plus and just let everything purge out and recover naturally. She did prescribed some medication (pregnancy-safe) for me, but asked me not to take them if possible. Apparently, there has been a stomach flu / diarrhea virus going around, so maybe K spread his virus to me.. So eventually, i went home, drank 1.5 litres of 100 plus, ate porridge and slept the whole day. K and I also had to cancel our weekend Batam trip, which totally spoilt my mood.. = (
I kinda got better towards the night, with my last merlion at around 4pm. And that was caused by me eating too much porridge at one go because i was so damn hungry! Haha..
