Rather nyam mi pickney dem, dan fi catch belly again.

Mi tiaaad!

Aht Aht! It's not that serious.

Coulda fool me, might aswel she did tell me nuh fi nyam it none tall.

Today's errand included a doctor visit and according to her, the human inside me is causing iron deficiency and the constant ice chewing was clear indication.

As if I got the worst news of my life, I was instructed to limit my ice consumption.

Key word limit.

Anyways!

Still ago nyam me ice until further notice.

"All yuh need is some ground food, yuh callaloo and yuh chicken liver. Yuh will never go wrong wid dem deh."

Uhm, nope.

Shaking my head I tell him "will eat the callaloo, but yuh nah get me a nyam nothing else weh yuh just mention."

"And dats why yuh vampire pickney a suck all a di likkle iron from yuh. Yuh stay deh, nuh come yah come nyam up di fast food dem and think yuh pickney ago born healthy."

Slapping at his hand, mommy warns him.

Nuh know when she ago understand seh har husband mouth a nuh fi him.

" I do eat as healthy as I can, but as you can see" I point at my bump "it nuh sufficient".

Side eyeing me, he continues to pick and clean the ackee that he had in his hand.

As a country man.

"Suh how you and Kaylan manage fi catch belly said time?" He inquires.

"Coincidence I guess" I shrug.

That's the only reason I can possibly give. Besides, I'm two months ahead of her.

"Coincidence make fi har first baby father nuh inah di picture and fi yuh deh a jail?"

"Norman" mommy says in a warning tone.
