Does anyone else feel this way?

Hi ladies!

My husband and I were ttc #2 for around 6 months and now I am 10 weeks pregnant, YAY! :dance:

Unfortunately, I have had really bad ms (as I did with DS) only now it is 10 times harder because I have a toddler who freaks out every time I vomit and I cant comfort him due to the fact that I am bent over the sink at the time!!!

The constant ms coupled with tiredness and a very busy life (wife, mum, uni student, employee etc etc) are starting to make me feel like this is all just too hard. I was so excited when I found out I was pg but now I just feel like I have way too much going on and its just making life harder. Of course thinking like that makes me feel like a terrible person but thats just how I feel SOMETIMES!

I was just wondering if anyone else if feeling slightly overwhelmed due to the fact they are pg, whether they were trying or not.

Sorry for the essay, replies would be greatly appreciated!

*hugs* hang in there - it should lessen in a few weeks. Just take each day at a time.

oh i feel it i have so much to do during the day and im only early today all iwanted to do was stay in bed and not emerge at all

i feel ur pain

I also feel your pain! i havent been vomiting but have been feeling nauseas all day long! its awful! and i am so tired, i'm finding it hard to keep up with everything around the house.. its like a bombs gone off, which is not making me feel any better. Thankfully Ds has been sleeping really well overnight so thats one thing. Otherwise i try and rest during the day when he is napping. I'm really lucky that Dh doesnt care if i havent done the housework or made dinner. Cant wait till 2nd trimester, hopefully we'll all be feeling better then. Try not to be too hard on yourself and just rest when you can.
All the best.

:hug: hang in there it will get better. You forgot how tired you get and how much the MS takes out of you. Your not alone though! Try and rest up when you can, I hope the next few weeks pass quickly and your feeling better in the second trimester.

i know how you feel,

i just have been in hospital for a week cause of my ms. Now they put me on zofran wafers after trying several medication. I have to say with being so sick all the time I had devoleped antenatal depression and they have put me on zoloft now. I feel much better now.

i also have 2 toddlers to look after which is making it hard.

It does get better! I felt just like you at first when I had no energy and was being sick all the time, but in the last week or so the ms has really lifted. I think I had also gotten very depressed as I was feeling so sick all the time and that was just making it worse. Now that I am feeling better I am fine! No more depression and finding it easy to look after DD again. So hang in there, hopefully things will get better soon :hug:
