Have absolutely had enough and think my body is about to give up! I'm 11 weeks and have got hypremises, post nasal drip (cronic) about to diagnoses me with addison's disease, extreme tiredness can't even get out of bed! Dizzyness, headaches, sick, burnt oesophagus and throat, more sick, using 6 toilet rolls a day due to spitting from my drip, and the vagina feels like it's about to fall out of me! Propper crap!!!!!!!!!
Have two other children and think there starting to feel the effects of mum not moved from bed for two weeks, and when my first comes up to see how I am in the morning, she says, "are you ok, you stink mummy!!" brilliant!! My husband who's been an angel, done everything in the house and taken time off work to help me (mainly hold my hair as I'm sick) don't think he can take any more!! I've had enough and want to be comatose for the next 6 months!!! Sniff sniff!!!!

What the hell, you poor thing. I thought my first PG was bad but you win!

What is Addisons Disease and what is a post nasal drip?

All I can say to even coming close to helping (thank god im not in slapping distance) is maybe, just maybe it will ease over the next few weeks - the sick at least.

Keep abusing MN to keep you semi sane. x

oh I feel for you, i got the worst morning sickness practically from 5 weeks, got ill at Christmas and I honestly thought I was going to die. Finally back at work this week but its just horrible horrible horrible when you cant stop being so sick.

were you like this with your previous 2?

Addison's disease is an auto immune disease where I don't produce enough cortisol and adrenalin which is not good news in pregnancy. My other two I was sick all the way till I gave birth it was he'll but never like this! Was in hospital a lot with my first on drips but that's because I didn't know what I was doing! A post nasal drip is where my sinuses produce an obscene am out of mucus constantly that goes down the back of my throat (gag), and gets worse when I eat, and as it has too much progesterone in it, it stopped me digesting food properly, so have to eat every hour which is a struggle with drip! Can't taste much food either so don't fancy anything! But a lot of this could be due to addison's and had emergency bloods done this morning and have a scab this afternoon to make sure baby is thriving! Let's hope so as the thought of a third, which wasn't planned, doesn't actually scare me, it's the pregnancy!! Think I'm just having a bad week and feeling sorry for myself!! I'm praying I feel better than this soon x thanks for all the lovely comments, they really do help x x x x

Well scan went well and baby thriving! They brought my dates forward by 4 days which doesn't sound much but I'm now 12 weeks which is like a sigh of relief even though I feel no better! Should have results from bloods tomorrow too!

What's wrong?

Coppernoddle · 31/01/2011 20:45

Well now I have strep b so my chances of having another home birth is very slim, and I now have to stay horizontal until my womb grows big enough out of my pelvis as the whole thing is falling out me!! Just when I am starting to get a little bit of energy back ( very little) maybe thinking about being able to take a trip into town to get some bra's as I have 2! But no! No lifting no exercise no walking for long periods! And I have a nearly 4 and a 5 year old! The poor things have suffered enough with weeks of being bed ridden!
