Only 3 more weeks to go until I go on maternity leave. However, it seems like a lifetime away. Every morning, I wake up, counting the days until I do not have to wake up so early anymore. My efficiency has gone down since, apart from needing to concentrate on work, I also have to fight nausea. The fact that my brain seems unable to hold information and would rather sleep makes it even harder.

Thank God, my employers are supportive. However, some of my colleagues aren't as understanding. I have had a couple of colleagues throw snide remarks about my constant visits to the doctor and my absence.

In any case, I am glad when the 3 weeks are over. Time when I can finally concentrate on this pregnancy.
