Personal Narrative: My Personal Experiences Of Being Pregnant

Improved Essays
After being surprised about my pregnancy, last week, I had the harsh reality of being pregnant woman. I was mentally and physically stressful because I had all ills related to the first stage of pregnancy. I was so stressed to the point of starting fearing for myself. I had dizziness, nausea, vomiting, and all these were constantly followed by a permanent flu. In summary I had a terrible week that I spent by staying in my bed and that really made me very stressed. I could not do anything because I could not smell the food, neither taste anything, and by not being able to eat make me very weak. I felt my health and the one of my twins threatened and in danger because of lack of strength. The foods and anything that could go in the stomach smell so disgusted to the point to make me throw up.

My disappointment was great at the hospital when hearing the doctor refused to prescribe me some medication that can relieve me from the illness that I have had. The only thing he recommended me to take as medication is Tylenol.

I can say I have been doubly stressed this week given my state that has deteriorated and also the fact of the doctor’s refusal to do anything for me, and even prescribe me some medicines other than recommend me to rest. I thank God for the assistance of my husband for being by my side all the time, at any levels and in any situation

Teen pregnancy may seem to be the end of the world but, it is just the beginning of another more meaningful adventure. All it took was those two miniscule; very faint pink lines to tell me that my life was never to be the same.…
