Here we are, 17 weeks already! This week went by so fast! As predicted, July is going to be a quick few weeks if it keeps up this way.
Baby is now almost half a foot long! The entire body is nearly all proportionate now as well. Baby is getting better at hearing and reacting to noise - something I know already because Katie crying near my belly gets me a bunch of wiggles and kicks, and sometimes when Sophie starts to howl the baby starts wiggling too.
As for me...well, I thought morning sickness was finally a thing of the past, until we went on a car ride for a half hour. I got so sick, was attacked by a migraine, and it stayed that way for hours. Around 10 PM we got more food...which I quickly threw up completely (and then was still hungry). I thought the blood vessels were pretty bad last night, but they're much worse this morning. I never had it so bad! I put make up on (foundation and powder) to see if it would cover it up. Turns out, NO. I had to put so much on just to cover the super dark spots that the makeup was SO thick, it looked just as bad as the dots did! I quickly washed it off and now just have to hope that they fade quickly.
I'm now able to eat healthier again without getting sick. I can take vitamins, eat a daily salad, have fruit...things that I used to crave but couldn't keep down. I gave up on having cups of water and now carry around a jug, usually which only lasts me about two days, if that. We go through A LOT of water right now!
Can't wait for 9 more days to see if we have a Snow White or Baby Superman in there!
