Newly pg and just feel so ill

Sad and it isnt even morning sickness yet.

I ache everywhere, could sleep for England, my ears nose and throat are sore, and a just feel like a lead weight.

Its been three years since I fell pg with DD and I cant remember what it was like in those first few weeks.

Ive taken some ibuprofen and lozenges and am curled up in bed, but am away on a mass family holiday (none of whom know I am pg) so am finding it exhausting "keeping up appearances" so to speak.

Am bush whacked.

Oh God, I remember the days of feeling like sh*t but at least I could hide away in my house - it must be a nightmare having to put on a brave front for everyone, you have my sympathies Thanks

Also, I don't think Ibuprofen is supposed to be taken in pregnancy, just check. And I know some lozenges and those kind of cold remedies aren't advised either.

Yes. No aspirin or ibuprofen whilst pregnant.

Sorry you're feeling so ill and tired. I was worn out like that with my DS. Awful. However with DD I was fine and pretty lively. Disclaimer: not saying its a boy/girl thing. Just that pregnancy is so knackering.

Chin up. It won't last. And do get as much sleep as you can.

Paracetemol is ok to take.

Keep you chin up and don't suffer if you don't have to! I took paracetamol when I felt like you did 3 weeks ago and it is a complete miracle worker - brings a temp down and kills the throat pain.

Hang in there Thanks
