Unmotivated and can't be arsed

I am 35 weeks with DC2 and feel the size of a small country. I am a SAHM but cannot be bothered to do ANYTHING. The house is such a mess, I have washing coming out out of every basket, an ironing pile the height of the ceiling and DH is eating frozen meals. Please tell me that I am not the only one who is really tired and can't be arsed to so anything.

Bradyboo - my DH and I regularly eat frozen meals - pregnant or not!!! During the week I find it hard to be find time or be arsed cooking.

Maybe if you break the tasks down into small manageable things, it might make it easier. I am 39 weeks pregnant and have no other children so am literally just sitting around doing nothing and I find it hard to get motivated to do anything. But I find if I just do one or two small things- like some ironing or putting the washing on, it gets me motivated to do other things.

The tiredness thing does suck though. It must be much harder for you than me if you have DC to look after.

Yep, me. And I am only 10 weeks! So tired though, and have DD and DS to look after. I was in tears this morning looking at the state of my garden. Dropped DD at school, DS at preschool and got out there to sweep leaves/empty manky wet sandpit etc. Very glad I did.

DS now asleepand I have just had a large mug of tea and 4 (yes, count 'em) choc bars as my reward.

Still can't be arsed to hoover though.
