I slept better with a newborn than I did when I was pregnant and felt like I had more energy
Feeling the same. I was a gym and pole girl before pregnancy. Now I’m falling asleep while walking around my local shop. Tried the gym this morning after over 3 months of nothing… felt almost impossible after 10 minutes. I really hope this tiredness goes away because it really is a different kind of tiredness 😴
@Beth honesty I feel the same but I don’t want to say I hate pregnancy cause everyone is like it’s such a blessing and people are desperate to have kids and I have it It just sucks this is my first and last pregnancy, I really don’t wanna go through this again
@Katie I get worried I won’t get that nesting thing because I’m so tired
@Hannah I’m 6 months and nothing I’m still tired everyday, first 2 months was sleeping non stop and now I can barely sleep
I still got that nesting feeling with my first and I felt drained and uncomfortable
I struggled to get pregnant, and when I saw that little+, I was ecstatic. However, it's OK, to be honest. Pregnancy sucked for me, but some women glow with it. But when they put my little girl on my chest, the last 10 months were worth it to create this little miracle ✨️ plus because of all the vomitting I'd lost 2 stone and was lighter at the end of my pregnancy than I was at the start 😅 It'll feel worse telling people your OK all the time when you feel like poop, better to be honest. Xx
You can hate being pregnant and still be excited and grateful for your baby. It’s not easy and in my first trimester to about 20 weeks I was absolutely broken. I went from gym every other day, walking an hour plus a day to barely being able to get off the couch. I felt guilty and jealous when seeing others do stuff. When baby arrives you won’t have your body prioritising all your nutrition etc for your growing baby. Also so many people say you get better quality sleep with a newborn. Might be broken when they are small but in pregnancy sleep quality is terrible!
Pregnancy tired is worse than newborn baby tired. THERE I said it. Being pregnant was awful. I hated every bit of it, I never had energy. I threw up every day until she physically exited me, and i couldn't get comfortable. EVER. It's worth it when baby gets here. Hopefully, your pregnancy will be better than mine, and you can start to enjoy it soon. Best of luck and God speed.
