Not enjoying motherhood whilst pregnant ? Normal?

[August21yellowbaby]

I'm 19 weeks and I have a 2 year old, I used to love my days with him but at the moment I'm really not, I feel guilty for admitting it. I have no motivation to go out and do nice things together like we used to, I don't have as much patience, he's quite rough with me, he's going through a hitting, throwing and kicking stage and I'm just feeling fed up with it

Am I feeling like this just because I'm pregnant? I'm scared I'm always going to feel like this :(

Very normal! Your body is going through a lot and you have heightened hormones on top. Don't feel guilty if you want a day at home, it's good for your eldest to have time to occupy themselves.

I used to beat myself up for not taking the boys out to do things every day, when really they are content just being together whether it's at home or out and about.

Take it easy and do what you can 🥰

Thank you so much for this 🥰
