Is anyone else struggling?

I’m feeling so rough, constant nausea, holding back the sickness as I know it’ll just make me feel worse, no appetite, floored with fatigue. Struggling with looking after my 2 year old, I have zero patience. Trying to get through each work day. I’m happy I’m having another baby but I am miserable at the moment. The first trimester is horrendous

It's only when you do it again that you remember how rubbish it is.

Same, you're not alone, I'm in the same boat. Hang in there 🩷

Same. My first pregnancy was a breeze. This one is awful!

Same. Didn't realise quite how much harder it would be when also raising a 2 year old. My work is much busier now too. While my nausea is finally lessening now I'm week 12 I'm still tired a lot, headaches, hungry loads, and have no patience and moody a lot (especially with my partner!!) And often such low to zero motivation for work or doing chores. I think I'm starting to accept this time is going to be different and to try and tough through it, accept the bits I'm not going to be able to do as well (work, housework, low energy levels) and try and ask for more help and force time to rest wherever humanly possible and take days or sick days off work where possible. It's very hard!! You have our solidarity

I had definitely forgotten how awful the first trimester was. I looked back on my first pregnancy with such fondness but my partner said I’m displaying all the same emotions and symptoms. I know it won’t last forever but each day is a slog! Hope everyone else is doing okay 🩷

I was same got some xoenva from docs and started to feell better. I was same from week 5- week 10 until i glt these tablets xx

Yes I am feeling horrific and feel like each day there’s a different/ new symptom!
