Nollywood actress Ini Dima Okojie is reflecting on her pregnancy.
The new mum, in a video she shared on Instagram, highlighted her different symptoms. According to her, she doesn’t know which trimester was better, since she experienced different things in each.
Ini said during her first trimester, she had constant nausea; in her second trimester, the fibroid pain kicked in, and in her third trimester, she started vomiting.
“Nine months growing you.
It’s interesting because, experiencing pregnancy myself, I’d always hear people debate which trimester was the most stressful, the first or the third. Most people seem to lean toward the first, I think.
Now that I’ve even gone through it, I really don’t know. I had all sorts of interesting symptoms throughout my pregnancy, but I’ll highlight a few.
In my first trimester, I had constant nausea, but I rarely threw up. I still don’t know which is worse: constantly feeling like you’re about to puke or actually puking.
In my second trimester, the fibroid pain kicked in, and it was absolutely excruciating. This was also when I started vomiting more frequently.
Then came the third trimester; I started vomiting as I’d just found out I was pregnant. Multiple times a day. Every single day. And then the weight of the baby is going to do a number on your body at that point.
So honestly, I really don’t know if I had to pick the easiest trimester; I genuinely couldn’t. Is anybody else in the same boat?”.
