12 weeks and feeling like a bag of 💩

[gemsparkle84]

Is anyone else around 12 weeks and feeling like absolute garbage? I mean like complete and utter s**t? I had coccyx/ sacral joint pain before I got pregnant now it's a thousand times worse. I have had a chronic cough for the past 4 months, it's loads worse. GP doesn't know what it is, I'm currently being assessed by asthma but every time I cough I get severe cramp right down below where I imagine my uterus is. It's extremely unpleasant. I'm just feeling so pants. Over the moon to be a prego. I just have some anxiety issues and feel like total poo. Needed a good moan. Anyone else feeling like this? Xxxx

I am only 9 weeks and I feel like complete crap! I have gained 9 pounds, feeling obese. I constantly feel sick and tired plus I am type one diabetic and have a demanding full time job to contend with! Not that I am complaining because I am so happy to be pregnant. I am also petrified of something going/being wrong.x

Hey blondie I know exactly how you are feeling, I'm currently working for my in laws who are extremely demanding. I work around 70 hpw at the minute. It's horrendous. I'm too worried about something going wrong. I feel great about my pregnancy but it's my other health issues I worry about being more serious. Are you worried because of your diabeties? Xxx

Yeah, I found weeks 12 and 13 the worst so far. I'm not convinced it was worse than the previous weeks but I was just so over it all. I just felt rubbish, fat, couldn't feel baby and didn't have an obvious bump just a spare tyre and was soo tired and skin was awful. I started to look and feel better at 14 /15 weeks and started to feel movement too which helps and now at 19 weeks I have a bigger bump and a dancing tiny human. I still don't feel normal but I'm not sure I ever will again!

Yes I am worried because of the diabetes. The midwife even said they don't fill out all my details in the pregnancy pack thingy because I have a higher risk of miscarriage . Do your in Laws know you are pregnant?? If so they should be easing up on you surely ?!! X

Yes they know I'm pregnant... That's not a particularly nice thing for them to say to you about not filling in the pack... That seems silly as fingers crossed things will go well for you and they will need to do it anyway!

Yes OP you are right... I just have a big belly but I just look like I have eaten too many pies!!! Xxx
