I’m so exhausted

I’m 38 weeks pregnant and I feel so guilty for having absolutely no energy to do anything. I have toddler ( 2 years old) and I find myself just wanting to do absolutely nothing. Plus it’s cold outside so we can’t just hangout outside constantly like we did in the beginning of my pregnancy. I feel so much guilt over this. I’m just so exhausted and my body hurts.

Im 38 weeks too and I feel the same way. My son is 3.5 years old with so much energy and I feel bad I cant keep up with him. But Im sure he understands like your son does and you are doing the best you can!

I have a 2.5 yo , I’m 37 weeks and exhausted. It is what it is. I sit on the couch and play whatever game he wants to play but I stay stationary , he’s bouncing all over the room and it’s fine.

You’re so not alone.

I have an almost 2 year old and am in the same boat! He has been independently playing the last couple weeks and watching Danny go and Ms Rachel and I feel so guilty. I am beyond tired.

I have a 1 year old, 2 year old and 4 year old at home and am 38 weeks pregnant. I totally feel you. No energy to engage in play or outings and the mum guilt is real. I find that I do better with low energy activities like colouring with them, doing puzzles, and snuggling up on the couch to read. You can always try those things. But just know you aren’t alone and it’s temporary. You are blessing your toddler with a new sibling which is a gift for life, and this short phase will be very quickly forgotten by them :) x
