Wasnt it meant to get better after 12 weeks?

Hi all,
So im 14 weeks and still feel like crap. Im in bed feeling so tierd by 9pm most nights, and despite decentish sleeps i have that horrible sluggish, cant even be bothered having a shower feeling. My skin is still a mess, and my boobs seem to hurt more than ever. Now, im not complaining, id rather feel this way that not, but tell me, when will i start to glow!!!!!?????

I wasn't into 2nd trimester glow until 18 weeks and was equally indignant about lack of improvement at 12 weeks! Hang on in there! It will get better :)

Yeah... Or not:P 16+5 with dc3, still napping most days. Have rough days on and off but sickness has generally eased up in last 10 days or so, not throwing up every day.... Ds1 was ill 8-18 weeks, ds2 was ill 3-13 weeks. Tip for the boobs- stop wearing underwire bras! Get a comfy maternity or breastfeeding one. Really helps. Hang in there x

My nausea started to tail off at 18 weeks, I'm now into week 19 and seem to be surprisingly nausea free. I found after 14 weeks when I realised the nausea was not going as I was promised, I just gave in and accepted it.... Which in itself did help.

Well I hate to be the voice of doom but I never really felt better.
Felt crap from start to finish. Just slightly less crap after about 18 weeks.
I wasn't good at being pregnant. It's one of the big things putting me off having a 3rd baby.
Just keep your eyes on the prize. It is worth it. Honestly.
On the other hand you might feel amazing in another month. Who knows!

Yes I felt like shit until about 16-17. Then my all day nausea stopped but tiredness continued. I've never felt normal since finding out I was pregnant. I just hope I'm one of these women who find having a newborn easier than pregnancy!
Good luck and remember it's all for a very good cause.
