Feeling run down in a healthy pregnancy

I am 17 weeks pregnant and I just need to vent a little

My midwife told me today that I am so easy to look after because my pregnancy goes by a book and all my screenings come back perfect

And it's great, makes me want to jump for joy and the only thing stopping me is that I have not stopped being sick in weeks now!

Since the beginning of the pregnancy I had cold / sore throat twice (each time lasting nearly two weeks), a UTI, pink eye twice, an ear infection, few migraines, a tooth extracted due to failed root canal (years after it was done!), suffered from insomnia and as a cherry on top somehow strained my shoulder this week. As a result I have been on two or three courses of antibiotics and extra antibiotic eyedrops. Oh and I suffer with horrible round the clock sickness too.

My immune system no longer exists and have to eat my meals twice. Anyone else having this much fun in pregnancy?
