Struggling with synptoms

Hi all,

I am 6 weeks pregnant and have been OK up until now. Some nausea every now and then but haven't been sick yet and tender breasts. I had quite bad cramps to a point where my eyes tear up. The one thing I have been struggling with this last week is tiredness! I mean, I am ok most of the day, but I'm at my worst in the morning when I need to get up. It's as if someone beat me up during my sleep! I'm also st my worst at around 3pm where I'm finding hard to keep going. I know most people feel the tiredness in the afternoon but mine is in the morning. Any help? I have been having 8-9 hour sleep per night.

Hi! i am now 16 weeks and the fatigue haze has lifted but I have never felt tiredness like it before! My nausea and other lovely symptoms kicked in around 6 weeks too which were made worse by the tiredness! Just look after yourself, sleep, nap and rest (perhaps not at work! 😂) when you need to and remember what an amazing job your body is currently doing. X

I'm the same. 10 weeks pregnant with baby number two at the moment, and the tiredness has hit me way worse in this pregnancy that it did last time - probably because I'm running around after my 11 month old all day and I wasn't last time!! Sickness is worse this time too - vomiting at least three times a day, and can barely stomach any food apart from mini cheddars!! It does get better though! I remember feeling much better around 15-16 weeks last time Smile

This pregnancy has been quite a shock to me because I breezed through my first one but feel awful this time! The nausea comes and goes and isn't bothering me hugely but the fatigue is something else, I agree. I'm 8+3 and just don't feel up to doing much at all. And I just feel icky - nothing i drink to quench my thirst tastes right. I'm so sick of water but haven't found anything that's particularly nice to drink!

Thank you all. Thank goodness I have had no sickeness yet, however I went to my GP today and complained of the pain and they have referred me to midwives for an urgent scan. I will be going in tomorrow and currently mortified!! I hope everything is ok.

I'm the same 6 weeks
Going between feeling like death and then fine then back to feeling like death

Mornings are the worst but I could just fall asleep at any time. Except I can't Angry

The worst part of this pregnancy so far is my memory. I can't remember what I was just working on Blush
