This is my second preg...and I'm finding I'm feeling down. I'm tired...lack motivation...feel sicky...I have no sex drive and don't even want a cuddle half the time. I am upset a lot and find myself crying over things I didn't before. Prior to preg I had lost weight and for the first time felt good about myself...I gained some before preg cause of a holiday and Xmas and then fell preg a lot sooner than we expected...first try!! I've just continued to put weight on rapid I'm 10 weeks and have gained 7lbs I'm disgusted all together that's 1st 7lbs since I lost weight. Non of my clothes fit me...I hate pictures I have a fat Face. I don't feel as attached to this baby I don't know whether it's cause I'm busy with my other child and a job I don't enjoy. Either way this all feels so different I was hoping when I get my 12 week scan I'll feel different like it's more real as just now I just feel fat and my confidence is no where to be found. I literally just want to hide...is anyone else feeling this way is this normal?? X

I'm sorry you're feeling so low. I'm feeling somewhat similar. Incredibly emotional, cry everyday like real sobs. Feel stressed, have an 'I don't care' outlook a lot of the time. I put it all down to hormones and the fact my relationship is a bit stretched at the moment.
I trust it will all get better.
Tell your midwife how you feel when you see her, that's my plan.
You feel how you feel, you don't have to put on a happy face and face the world if you don't want to. Hope you feel better soon!

I feel the same and planned to tell midwife when I next saw her. I feel so unattached and sick and just want to sleep and cry most of the time. I hope we feel better soon x
