Struggling already at 15wks

[nailsathome]

I don't find pregnancy easy as it is but I'm struggling at work much earlier than I have before.

I've always made it to about 26 weeks or so before starting to really feel it and I haven't managed to work beyond 33 weeks.

My spd is really painful already, I'm suffering from nausea and dizziness and my blood pressure is doing crazy things. I'm a teacher and it's just so hard.

I don't know why I'm posting really, just for reassurance that I'm not alone (or maybe I am!)

My spd was awful and I was sick throughout my pregnancy. I felt awful but you will get through it!!

Also I went off work at 32 weeks so don't worry you aren't alone!!

I don't know if I'm going to even make it to 22 weeks at this rate!

I'm massive already too so that's not helping

@Nails I could have written your post

SPD hit me hard from 14 weeks and I'm 32 weeks now and genuinely don't know how I can make it through much longer. This pregnancy is hard. Good luck - finish work early, reduce your expectations of what you can cope with, get as much support as you can.

How have you gotten through to 32 weeks? If we could afford it I'd quit work right now!

Took each day as it came and my DH stepped up bigtime. I am counting down days and weeks. Live for naps although sleeping is so difficult with extreme heartburn and spd. Plus we've had a heat wave here - mid/high 30s and the air conditioning stopped working properly. As I said ... one day at a time.

I can't do it anymore 😞 I'm in so much pain and the nausea is all-consuming!
