Sickness subsiding
I haven’t been feeling quite so bad this week. While I’m very hopeful that my morning sickness is starting to subside I’m worried that it might just be because I’m on annual leave so I can just sit and chill whenever I want and maybe it doesn’t seem as bad. I’m still not eating properly - I’m just not hungry or if I am hungry the thought of food turns my stomach. I’m OK in the evenings and can eat a proper meal (though not a very big one), but earlier in the day I’m lucky if I manage some fruit, a bit of cheese or a piece of toast.
I’m definitely losing a bit of weight - about half a pound a week, but I’m retaining vast quantities of water so I think the real weight loss could be quite a lot higher than that. I just hope I’m not starving Pip, and that s/he’s taking whatever s/he needs from my otherwise amply nourished body. I am at least taking posh pregnancy vitamins so s/he shouldn’t be missing any micronutrients and Pip’s still tiny so the little I’m eating is probably enough for her/his needs. I dare say Pip gets first dibs on whatever I eat and I’m the one that has to go without if there isn’t enough.
