Teachers
Are there any other teachers in the group? I've been sooo tired and sick this half term, the thought of going back is really daunting! Any top tips to get through the day? First pregnancy, 10 weeks tomorrow 🥰

Snacking during lessons! Told my manager & my TAs so I could dash for the loo when needed. Don't work late & nap when home. X
I’m a special needs teacher. I’ve taken to laying down on the floor of my classroom and just giving up. My kids think it’s hilarious but I’m really close to having a full break down 🤣🤣🤣 the exhaustion is real life!
I've been so tired this week. And had bad sickness today. So I've said to my husband, I'm just going to see how I am next week and if I'm not right, I'll be ringing in sick. I've found out on Thursday, I've low iron. Which explains the extreme tiredness. But I'll be putting myself first. If I'm not OK, I'm ringing in. My headteacher knows I'm pregnant. So that will help.

Oh, that's a tough stage! I got through it by: Telling my line manager and headteacher, so that they understood why I wasn't firing on all cylinders Going home straight away at 3:30 and having a nap Keeping breadsticks or crackers in my coat pocket, as I found eating helped to temporarily alleviate the sickness Good luck!
