I'm currently 24+3 wks with my 1st, still suffering with morning sickness and generally just feel naff!
it seems everyone else I know is enjoying their pregnancy's and I'm wondering why everyone says it's so wonderful.
I wake up at 5:30am for work feeling like I have the biggest hangover, battle through the first couple of hours trying not to be sick. my quality of sleep is awful so I'm exhausted. I ache all over. my boobs have gone from a 32D to a 34G already and nipples are so sore I have to wear nipple pads to stop clothes from rubbing. I have a UTI that I've had for 18 weeks now, taken several courses of antibiotics (resulting in recurring thrush) and the UTI it's still not gone. I'm constipated so no have piles and my midwife is awful and has only seen and spoken to me once at 10 wks.
Please don't think I have not done everything I am suppose to throughout my pregnancy to avoid these things, I eat/drink ginger, drink prune juice and cranberry, take pregnacare every day. I don't smoke, or drink alcohol, I don't eat anything I'm not suppose to. I follow all the advice I find online or from parents who can speak from experience.
everyone keeps saying "it could be worse" and "it gets easier" but right now I'm wondering how that is possible!
in need of reassurance or the truth about whether or not this is going to get any easier
