Feeling terrible

[Madham]

Ok so i get m/s symptoms etc, i have had 2 children previous and had severe m/s with DS my entire pregnancy but i would have preffered having that to this.
I honestly feel terrible all day, i do get nauseous but have only vomited 3 or 4 times, i have now fainted 3 times and feel like i am going to faint several times a day.
I am now only working 3 days a week now as honestly i cant function properly, half the time i dont know what to do to feel better, i have started having several small meals through out the day and that is helping a little bit, although i have no interest in food. I am dry reaching several times a day, have hot flashes, dizzy spells, nauseous and feel very weak, even my legs feel like they are going to collapse from under me sometimes.
I'm not normally one to complain but this is honestly unbearable, i hope it passes and is only a first trimester thing as there is no way i can cope the entire pregnancy this way.
Has anyone else felt this way?

I was the same with dd2 the entire pg minus the fainting. I was on maxalon to stop feeling so bad and would graze all day as I couldn't way a full meal.

Hope you can work something out.

That sounds awful. Fainting is really scary. Have you had your blood pressure checked?

Hope it passes for you soon.

Oh dear sounds like you are having a miserable time :/ and it's not the kind of thing you can complain about either.
On the bright side, at least you know the hormones are at high levels.
I hope that once you hit second trimester it just all disappears and you feel fabulous! There's just nothing fun about the first 12 weeks :/

oh you poor darl, I had MS with my first for 30 weeks and then got pre-eclampsia - the joys of being pregnant, it does make it so hard to function though!!!
I hope it goes away soon, I wold be worried about the fainting though - seeing your blood pressure is normal!
feel better soon sweety

Madham i'm a bit the same as you probably not as bad though. I actually went and had a three hour sleep this morning as i just couldn't cope sitting up.

No ground breaking advice, but lots of sympathy. I was exactly the same this pregnancy until about 22 weeks. I really feel for you, it was so horrible. Just to get up and make food for my girls was a huge effort. They had A LOT of baked beans and eggs on toast for a few months and spent way way too much time in front of the TV! I tried maxalon but it didn't work. Might be worth a shot though? It was so bad that it has put me off a 4th baby that i thought i'd always have..... i hope it improves for you soon. x
