Is it just me or ..

Do you feel like no one talks about how hard the first trimester is? I thought it would be a walk In the park … a gentle ease it 😅… I genuinely thought it would start of easy and naturally get worse the longer it went on but wow it’s hard 🥲🤣

It’s the worst 😞😞 after (for most of us) many months/years trying to conceive and dealing with miscarriages, there’s the complete fear of the unknown, the not telling anyone and trying to keep it together whilst you feel physically and mentally horrible… I’m wishing time away so much! The only reassurance is private scans (and I have one every 2 weeks). It does get better after the 12 week scan, you start showing, you know the baby is ok, you can share the news more confidently and at 16/20 weeks you start feeling the baby move, you have energy and the hormones settle a bit. It becomes the best experience in the world!

Omg this! I didn’t really have symptoms in my fourth and fifth weeks, so I thought I’ve definitely got this, this trimester will breeze by. When I started with the tiredness and nausea I just focussed on a day at a time but looking back, the last two/ three weeks have been hellish! Definitely under estimated it, massive respect to mommas who also have toddlers to look after. Hope you’re coping okay with yours - here’s hoping things get a bit better in a month! Xx

It is SO hard! The anxiety is brutal! I thought it’d be cute to have 2-3 children but right now I’m thinking an only child sounds good to me, no need to get greedy 😮‍💨😂

@Leanza trust me, better to have nausea exhaustion and food aversion than no symptoms and feel like something is wrong all the time...

I tried so long for a baby and now I’m pregnant I feel so bad for hating every second of pregnancy but I honestly cannot cope with the sickness anymore. I hadn’t left my house in 6 days so last I went for a gentle stroll just to get out, within 10 minutes I was throwing up in the street & straight back home🤢😪just so fed up. Hoping it gets better soon xxx

This is my third baby and my first with my little boy was the best felt amazing, motivated, second was a girl and felt so rubbish and sicky and miserable and this one I’m now feeling the same! Just want to start having the glow 🤣
