Feeling down

Hey guys. I just wondered if I’m alone in this! I have prayed for this baby and after losses before my every thought has gone into getting pregnant again. Now I’m here (6 weeks) I’m anxious something is wrong, feeling sick 24/7 day and night and honestly just feeling really low! It’s probably because I’ve been unable to go to the gym or do much because I just feel so sick. Which I know will be affecting my mental health I’m only 6 weeks in and already feeling like this, I’m worrying that I should be so grateful and excited. A part of me is thinking have I done the right thing and am I cut out for this

First trimester is no joke, and the sickness can be absolutely debilitating! Just because you really wanted this doesn’t mean that you’re not allowed to admit that it is hard AND you’re not obligated to “enjoy” the hard bits just because you prayed for this 💕 have you heard of the support group - Pregnancy Sickness Support? X

@Emma thank you Emma I appreciate that❤️❤️ no I haven’t, is it online or through peanut? X

It’s a national organisation, you can find them online or follow them on instagram etc! Xx

I'm feeling the same at the moment, the sickness and nausea is just taking over my life. I also suffer with migraines which I take daily medication for and these are back with a vengeance, the first trimester is really rough 😞

That’s understandable. You have experienced loss. You’re pregnant which is like a disability, you can’t smoke, drink alcohol, eat sushi, certain cheese. Can’t fit into those jeans anymore, sleeping for half a day. What’s to love about pregnancy? It’s sucks. Don’t feel bad. Love the outcome. Hate the journey tbh Be careful of the gym though, I am sure it triggered my previous miscarriage. I was trying to be a soldier.

Hi, I’m not from the area and have been feeling quite down, I wondered if being away from family and friends was the reason - you’re not alone.

I’m in a serious MOOD. I was like this with PMS but this is constant. I think I was the same with my first, it passes. Just know you are not your thoughts, hormones can do crazy things to us.
