I just wanted to come on here and rant to people who might understand! I can't poo, I can't sleep, I feel sick, I'm shattered, I'm sick of going for a wee 5000 times a day, I'm already showing and I'm not even out of the first trimester?! (Granted I'm a little older and a little fatter then when I had my dd's) My husbands has tonsillitis and I'm trying hard to sympathise, but I've felt like death for the last 2 months with not much sympathy 😂... I'm sick of hearing myself say I feel sick, also where has my energy and motivation gone?! And I really want a cup of tea but the thought of drinking one makes me want to vomit!

Anyway 😤

Feel free to rant along and moan about the little irritating things without judgment!!

Ugh that brought back some memories! How far along are you op?

I hear you. I'm 13 weeks tomorrow and still feeling nauseous, being sick and eating utter crap if I eat anything at all. Used to love a cup of tea but after being sick twice in the last week after drinking one, I've gone off that too. On the plus side I had my scan yesterday and everything looked good so that's a relief - it's not all for nothing!

@badatusernames I'm only 11 weeks! I've got two little girls and never really suffered with any early pregnancy symptoms so this time I'm making up for it 😂

@Picklesandpies oh poor you, I hope things settle soon for you! I'm glad everything is going well with baby though! My scan isn't until the 14th, I can't wait xx

'I can't poo, I can't sleep, I feel sick, I'm shattered, I'm sick of going for a wee 5000 times a day,'

I read this and thought you were in the third trimester like me! Hope you can take some reassurance from the fact when you hit the second trimester there's usually a break in between where it all gets a whole lot easier to live with.

Today I'm sick of back ache from a poorly designed office chair, and bloody Braxton Hicks every time I stand up. 'painless practice contractions' my arse!

39 + 4. GET THIS BABY OUT OF ME NOW!!!! I'm absolutely sick of the nausea, unbelievable exhaustion that I have felt for the whole flipping time, aches, unable to get comfortable for even 5 minutes, awful taste in my mouth. Etc etc etc.

3 days until induction. The final countdown.

Massive sympathy with those in the first trimester... The hardest bit by far if you ask me!!

Lululabelle · 02/08/2018 10:13

@SiolGhoraidh I really hope it stops soon!! And I remember braxton hicks with my eldest! Pain in the arse!

@Aw12345 ooh good luck I hope the induction goes well ❤️ and I sympathise with both of you being heavily pregnant in the summer!

Another rant! Where has my sex drive gone?!?
