Thanks so much Christy,

It certainly helps just talking about it!!!! I think I'm probably overreacting a little - being pg has really messed with my emotions and my brain!! Unfortunately, work isn't flexible at all and I've actually had to take on more in the last couple of months!! I'm a manager, so it's all expected of me and they're not at all understanding of my pg and my needs. I feel like they believe it's not their fault that I'm pg and it shouldn't affect my role. They make me feel like I can't use my pg as an excuse for not getting things done but it's really restricting me - I'm tired all the time, can't concentrate as much and am getting really forgetful. In my role, it's not ideal but I can't help it and I can't explain that to them. I keep hearing comments like "It's not an illness, you're just pregnant" - just getting to me at the moment.

Will definitely start finding ways to relax though - I like the idea of swimming, might give that one a go!

Thanks again for listening!
