Very(nearly) pregnant

I cant stand chocolate cake smell now. I stopped drinking tea. I am drinking milk now. The down side is that this way I am having only one cup. But I am making up by eating 2 eggs alternate days. I eat in the evening too. I used to eat at around the same time before, but now there is a dinner too, mostly rotis.
I kept two tops from 8 years ago. A green and a marron one. flowy sleeves with slits towards the wrist. I bought them in Noida. A while ago my friend's mil gave me a colorful top, the only problem with it was that it was very huge and had a rectangle cut. It was like the clothes we made for dolls by just cutting out a neck from a folded rectangle. I didnt think i would ever use it. But now its perfect. A long while ago, another friend gave me a black top with lindian beads and thrread work, red print in the front. She gave it to me because it was small for her and it turned out to be big for me. I kept it anyhow for the pretty top that it is. Now it fits like a T. A friend from NJ gave me a pair of maternity tops and jeans with elastic band that covers the belly. Another friend picked some clothes from a sale to go through another picking by me. She hemmed the jeans for me. I feel comfortable in active wear. So I got myself a pair last week.
I had nausea until third month. It was severe if I didnt eat in time in the morning. Mostly bile. I noted a marked difference in energy levels in the 4th month. I was out shopping for groceries on a saturday until late afternoon and was still on my feet.
Now you have started kicking after I have my lunch.
