On July 27th, Shalma Hughes's morning sickness suddenly worsened. That morning, Mrs. Lewis had cooked some porridge with extremely rare ingredients, carefully portioned according to the doctor's exact instructions. Normally, Shalma would eat two bowls, but today, after finishing just one, she rushed straight to the bathroom and began retching continuously. She emptied everything in her stomach until there was absolutely nothing left. Even yellowish bile came up, mixed with faint traces of blood.
Seeing this, Mrs. Lewis panicked and immediately reported everything to the doctor who had been on standby since the pregnancy began. Fortunately, the doctor's response was reassuring. He explained that some pregnant women experience a resurgence of morning sickness in their third trimester, often more severe than in the first. There was no specific treatment for it; she just had to endure it and stick to a light, bland diet as much as possible.
