Hoping someone has experienced or is experiencing the same . I’m a mum of two girls . I work full time aswell and the girls are in full time nursery mon - fri . This pregnancy has really taken it’s toll on my body and mind so far . It’s been worse than ever last few days . I’m constantly exhausted , don’t feel like I have any motivation or energy to do anything. I’ve lots of dull aches and digestion problems and light nausea .
I feel like my husband thinks I’m being lazy and dramatic and that’s making me feel really down and upset . I will start to do some housework and then just hit a wall really quickly and need to nap or sit down . I can’t stop crying now as I don’t feel like he is supporting me. All I want is a hug or some commiserations or reassurance that he is supporting me and doesn’t think I’m lazy . I really hope this feeling shit passes soon and that I’m not going to have permanent exhaustion and low mood during this pregnancy . I’ve told work I need some time off , I’m not in the right mindset for work . I feel bad about that too though as I only just came back after two weeks off . Hoping others have felt the same ? Thanks for reading

I'm so sorry you're feeling down. I can really empathise with this, and I don't have the added work of two children to look after! Try to give yourself some slack. I know that feeling of thinking your partner must think you're dramatic - I'm not sure they fully understand what it's like (I certainly didn't get it until a few weeks ago!)
It sounds like you're doing the right thing speaking to work about time off and it's probably worth talking with your partner about this as well. It's really hard but you're making a human on top of all the other things you do, of course you feel tired!
