Having a bad day....

[cryingbabymess]

I'm sorry to moan on here! I just feel really crappy! I'm not enjoying being pregnant (I thought I would!) I feel all alone, I feel really down and can't stop crying and I just want to feel happy! I'm only 8+5, please tell me it gets better and easier?

Sorry

Oh crying. I remember all to well the hormonal roller coaster that is pregnancy. It does get better, it really does. Get some fresh air if you can, I always found that worked for me. If it gets really bad, speak to your GP.

Very unmumsnetty hugs for you!

Oh dear! It definite gets better. Early pregnancy is a roller coaster of emotions and lots of people go through ups and downs like this. It's so much nicer when you can feel the baby moving around inside you. You don't feel so alone then!

I'm 9 weeks and I too am having a bit of a shit time with morning sickness/OH being a dick/ feeling lonely. It's a lovely sunny day, if you can get out for a walk and sit and people watch. It's made me feel better. You are not alone feeling like this

Honestly, it's okay to feel sorry for yourself, early pregnancy is especially um, shite, but it will get better. In the meantime be as kind to yourself as you can, sleep lots, eat whatever you feel like and cry at will. Don't feel like you have to enjoy every minute, because sometimes it's rubbish and it's alright to think so. By the end of the sixth week of this pregnancy (I'm 13+5 now) I really didn't think I'd get through the sickness and exhaustion but I did, and I'm starting to get really excited now :)

Hang in there OP

It really does get better :)
I hated the first trimester and then felt guilty for hating it after it had taken so long to get there.
But now at 24 weeks I'm loving it! I've met lovely new friends at pregnancy yoga, have a nice size bump and some comfy new clothes, we know the gender so have done some very cute shopping and decorating and best of all I can feel him wriggling.
You will get here too!
Go easy on yourself, rest and accept that hormones make you mad!

I just feel so shit all the time and have no motivation for anything! It's a case of I get up for work go to work home from work and do nothing! I've been making my OH so everything which makes me feel guilty as I usually do everything! I've got to work at my second job at 5 and I know it's going to be busy and I think I'm just panicking! My OH stayed at his dad's last night as he was helping him build stuff today so I've not seen him and because he's not been here I've literally done nothing today! I eventually got out my bed at 11.30, I've stayed in my jammies all day with all the blinds closed (I'm usually a freak about opening them!) I just don't know what's wrong with me!

I felt like that. Its horrible. Last week the world was ending, bump was ruining my career/ marriage/life and I was a crying mess. Poor DH didn't know what to do with me. At times he had to just leave me to cry and get on with running the house etc.
I'm now 15+6 and the world is suddenly a wonderful place again. I've had a great week at work and can't wait to start getting ready for our baby.

Hormones suck and can turn you into a completely different person. You WILL get past this. In the mean time, have some (if you can stomach it!)
