Found out pregnant April 2020

I'm feeling so overwhelmed - I found out I was pregnant last week but with everything going on I am 'shielding' with my mum and my partner is living elsewhere as he is working with people with Covid-19 so cannot see him at all. This is my first pregnancy and he wants to be so involved it's so hard knowing he won't be able to come to first scan etc and witness first stages of pregnancy, this is what we have been working towards for such a long time and we are both so happy, but I feel really scared and alone.

I am SO exhausted - so I feel quite lonely as spending a lot of time in bed, and if my partner was with me I would be spending time with him laying around watching TV.

Anyone else in similar position? ❤️

@Pucialace hi. I found out a week ago that I was pregnanct, so just under 4 weeks I think. I'm still working as front line staff, feeling super anxious in general though. How are you feeling?

Hey @Nic2908 Smile congrats on your news! I feel absolutely exhausted and feel sick from waking up till about 1ish, luckily as I'm off work I can't complain to much. But the tiredness is debilitating- family members have suggested I call GP for a blood test. How are you feeling?

That's understandable to feel anxious when front line working, I'm a care assistant and only stopped working recently due to my works pregnancy policy. Hope you are able to protect yourself.
