I feel mostly tired..... everything nowadays just wears me out.. even just putting in a load of washing..... I feel a bit queezy all throughout the day.. but not being sick anymore (think thats due to eating my ginger nuts throughout the day)..... I feel completely run down.....
Also... i feel as though my heads getting heavier.. my neck is killing me all the time... don't know why this would be....
My DH can't believe how much i've been sleeping lately and i'm still tired.. i used to be able to last on 5 - 6 hrs of sleep... now if i get that i'm falling asleep the next day

Yea, I'm attempting to be a hermit as well but my best friend keeps coming round at dinner time on my days off and drags me out so I can watch her baby in the car while she gets out and takes her step son to nursery...and then tries to keep me out for at least a hour by offering to go halves on fish and chips with me! How inconsiderate ey??? LOL

But seriously I know she's keeping an eye on me but I really feel that I want to be alone while O/H is out at work I don't want to go anywhere or do anything or have to be cheerful. I'm just tired and in pain ALL the time (really bad back ache since getting pregnant...the kind people normally complain of at 4months+) and for the last week I'm struggling to eat. I keep getting trapped wind which hurts and recently started dry heaving if I've eaten a 'large' portion of anything

It's playing havoc with my dry skin as well.... I just want to fast forward to the most painful part and get it over with in stead of months of slow agony!!

OMG I am not the only one...

I honestly cannot remember feeling this crappy when I had my daughter 8 years ago...I swear I didn't feel like I was going to throw up ever 5 seconds all day everyday, week after week after week. Walking up the road to take my daughter to school in the morning leaves me feeling exhaused. Getting out of bed in less than an hour is something that seems like a distant memory and my poor little girl is so put out because mummy just wants to lie in bed all day, and is sick AGAIN.

Admittedly you are supposed to be happy...and when I started bleeding last week...It was comforting to still feel so crappy and pregnant. And everything is ok now.

But what's worse is that I have this horrible feeling that this is going to something I will have for the rest of my pregnancy... I will basically never leave the house then. At least we will be moving in to our big new apartment and not the two bed shoe box we currently inhabit... the walls are slowly closing in.

Anyway...I'm off to lie on the sofa!!

I don't feel too bad sickness-wise - that's intermittent and predominantly brought on by smells such as tobacco, petrol fumes etc. But I am permanently shattered no matter how much sleep I get. What wouldn't I give for my maternity leave to start now!

 

[youngmumtobe20]

I made it through my birthday dinner on Sunday and it felt like I climbed a mountain. I paid for it the next day...I was extremely sick. Luckily I managed to get my hubbies present, in the form of a voucher, I couldn't cope with the smell from the sales staff (way too much aftershave mixed with BO, was enough to make me retch). And today I let him go to the shop alone even though its still his birthday... I stayed at home watching TV on the sofa.

That also seems to be a huge problem....the smells of other people, fabrics, walking past bins...almost every smell starts me off feeling really sick. My sense of smell is sooo strong atm. Does anyone else have this?

awww

set ur mind on the end result, its sooo worth it eh

ME! My sense of smell is amazing just now and it's so not a good thing!! The smell of dh farting in the night can actually wake me up and make me retch. Hope it passes or it's gonna be a long 9 months!
