Week 17 pregnancy update

Left: A selfie before heading to a friends house on Sat night, I took much pleasure in doing a full face of makeup for the first time in a while :)

Top Right: The hubby and I have set up our old Minecraft tekkit sever and have been playing again, this has been much fun!

Bottom right: Weekly purchases - I adore the macadamia hair mask which is normally £30 for that size tub, but they had it for £18 on beauty bay, so with the money I saved I purchased the macadamia 'flawless' to try :)

MY WEEK
You might have seen in my last post it's been a busy week filled with hospital and midwife appointments, nothing to worry about, just the 16 week bloods, and 16 week midwife appointment :)
I still don't feel pregnant though, despite still feeling quite woozy, my appetite not being there etc, I'm convinced something is wrong because of this (I know that's completely normal).  I just can't wait for my 20 week scan so I can find out for sure if everything is ok :)

SYMPTOMS
More retching, and specifically, my first set of throwing up! It was quite comical really, I'm there, brushing my teeth and before I spit out the toothpaste, I feel really sick (this happens every time I brush my teeth since I became pregnant, it's the action of spitting it out). With that, I wretch (again, typical daily occurrence when brushing teeth), then as I spit the toothpaste out, the tea I just drank gets thrown up with it :P

What's funny, I'm there with my head in the sink and I say out loud "Oh my g..." and as I'm saying "god" I throw up more tea :P Very comical :P

Still have the usual lower back ache, I'm also pretty boiling most of the time :)

WEIGHT
Down 3lbs this week, been eating pretty normally, but much smaller quantities of everything, still eating plenty of fruit, but not getting much protein.  I'd usually get that from Quorn since I'm vegetarian, but I'm off that now too :/

DIET
Still off cheese, quorn and anything remotely rich (i.e. anything not plain), loving potatoes still (jacket), mango, grapes and the odd packet of starburst :)

BUMP
Still nothing visible - my friend seems to think she can see a difference, but I'm not convinced!  I still can't really feel a firmness when I lie down, hubby thinks he can but I think it might be wishful thinking.

NEXT SCAN
27th May - it can't come quickly enough! I want to see Squidge and know everything is ok :)

BABY STUFF
Haven't bought anything new this week, although in a couple weeks time we are going over to a friends house as they're selling their crib and some other bits, so we're going to check that out, whoop!

Thanks for reading, I hope you've all had a fab week <3
