Unexpectedly pg with no4 but it was a happy surprise.

Had such a tough few days though and I am really starting to panic and wonder if I am doing the right thing.

Oldest 2 dc have been hard work all weekend, baby is ill and I'm wonderIng how it's possible for me to feel so sick and tired and still be alive.

Everything seems such a struggle just now, dh being great but I can't even tell him how scared I am as he is so happy about the pg.

Please tell me this constant sickness will end soon :( was bad with dc1 but that was fine as we had just moved areas so rather than finding a job a spent all day with my head in the toilet and did not have to worry about any other dc. Had no sickness with dc 2&3 so really struggling now

Completely understand. Preg with no 3 and v similar to you re wondering if right thing. Now 15 weeks and starting to feel better in last few days, and felt baby move last night! Feeling a bit calmer about things now...

It's so hard feeling ill and having to look after other children. Thank goodness for cbeebies.

Thanks Kate, can't seem to speak about it to my friends so nice to know I'm not alone.

Just wish I could feel normal again.

It will get better. Mine was really appalling but started to ease off at 11 weeks. Hope yours does too :)

I don't feel normal yet, but so so much better. Been able to run around with kids at park and started back at gym too, which is really helping. It's such a mix of feelings, and I was completely taken aback by the thoughts I was having about having made the wrong decision about no 3.

Just keeping my fingers crossed that we will be able to muddle through somehow, but I have had some very bleak moments. My DH thought I wasn't being serious when I brought up the topic of termination. I just couldn't imagine being able to look after 3 DC while feeling so ill. DH kept reassuring me that it would pass, and meanwhile I went to bed ridiculously early, as being asleep was the only time I didn't feel nauseous.

The only thing keeping me going is my scan in 2 weeks, partly because I think I will feel more of a connection with the baby when I see it wriggling about and partly because I have convinced myself the sickness will get better at this point.
