Worried and guilty

I'm 8+4 and sick as a dog. I'm scared that poor dh is going to get worn out because he's having to do everything at the mo. This weekend has been tough; early starts with ds so long days of entertaining him and Ive just been to sick and exhausted to help much at all. Can't be alone with ds without ds there because I frequently need to drop everything to run and be sick. I get dizzy if I stand up too long so I can't do much with him anyway; most I can manage is putting the tv on to cartoons while ds plays around the living room and I lie down. Even then ds can't be far away. Just feel super guilty that he's having to do everything and I'm feeling more and more miserable about how sick I am. Some days my throat gets totally burnt out from puking. I'm on meds, which are helping somewhat because if I take them late I'm even worse. My ds came early at 29 weeks after hg so I'm anxious during this pregnancy that I'm so sick again too.

Presumably your DH is a fully capable adult? Don't worry about him coping. Looking after one child on his own is not a huge ask at all. It's totally normal. Don't forget that you're doing the work of growing a new human, which is currently also making you very poorly. It's not your fault.

Oh you poor thing.
Chances are your DH is also feeling anxious and worried...he's probably worried he can't do enough to help you when you're so unwell and anxious about the early delivery last time.
Just give yourself a break. You're both doing all you can but it WILL get better.

Just back from a and e. I have a tear in the connection between my throat and stomach from puking so often. Nothing to be done but rest. Had a good chat with dh though and he insists he's fine and I don't need tp help out. Last time I was sick until week 17 so I'm just dreading the next few long weeks :(
