Hi everyone
I guess I’m just looking for a bit of reassurance really!
I am 6 months pregnant and completely exhausted. I work 40 hours a week in a physically demanding role (lots of getting up and down off the floor, running around, on feet all day, you know the drill) and by the end of the day I am shattered, by the end of the week I’m often in tears. I ache all over and just want to sit down!
I’ve worked this job with longer hours for years but now, it’s killing me.
I thought the second trimester was meant to be easy - am I being a total wuss?
I’m considering speaking to my midwife at my next appointment but I guess a part of me worries she will judge me for being a wimp! The broken sleep I’m getting probably isn’t helping.
Has anyone been in a similar situation and how did you manage?
