Everyone is having fun and I feel like crap (self-pitying alert)

Seems like the whole world, including DH, is out enjoying the sunshine.

I have to work. Feel wretchedly tired and nauseous, am lying on sofa working on laptop trying not to vomit or fall asleep. Will probably fail at all of the above.

Only chance to get out in the sun was walking the dog, who was playing up so much I pretty much wanted to murder him.

The to-do list is as long as the Doomsday book and I have absolutely no motivation to do any of it. I just want to sleep and eat toast.

Overwhelmed, sick, tired, emotional, big wallowing mass of self-pity here. Only 8 weeks too. That means I have at least another 5 before I start to feel human again, right?

Well you could make DH come in and not have fun with you. That would make me feel better! :o Maybe you could set yourself a time limit and then go and do something fun after that. Could DH make you a BBQ dinner? Hope your work is done soon ((Hugs))

I'm not having fun... pregnancy is making me grumpy, tired and feeling not great. I should get up and do some jobs but I really can't be bothered.

I hate the warm weather as it makes me feel all sweaty.

i'm 17 weeks so i should feel great too according to the books

DH is on his way back. When he gets back he's going to decide he wants a BBQ. He will not, however, have realised that the supermarket shuts in 10 minutes Grin.

And I can't speed the work up, I have to be sat online waiting until someone else decides we're all done. Better than thinking, but still wretched.

Thanks for not telling me to pull myself together!

true.
i started resuming some form of sentinent life and feeling like myself again after 3 months or so. however, now in my 6th and still nowhere near as active as i was before! also, am still waiting for the blissful period in pregnancy (u know, where you are supposed to feel so great about looking like an elephant and moving like a granny:))
so far the goal definitely justifies the means, but honestly, if no baby would pop out at the end of this period, noone in their right mind would go through this i guess.
take it easy on yourself and start a little book called "all the stuff i will do once i am on 100% energy levels again".
tip for the meanwhile: if you let your to do list "age" for a while, some of them will get done by other people ;) and some of them will stop being important to you....
good luck! plus: get out of the house now!

lol after talking to my sister in lw last week (she's a doctor) she agreed that pregnancy sucked for her too and it makes me wonder whether it is something to do with my hubby and his brother... even if it is not i am still going to blame him. He did this to me so he must suffer.
