10 weeks pregnant and feeling down

So I am currently 10 weeks pregnant and I am struggling so much. I’ve been suffering with nausea for the past 3 or 4 weeks which I now have some medication for which has taken the edge off but still feeling sick. I’m exhausted ALL of the time I feel like I have to drag myself through each day. I’m now feeling so low and miserable I think because I just feel so rubbish 24 hours a day and it’s taken its toll on me. The house is a mess, I can’t keep on top of anything which doesn’t help. Has anyone else been feeling like this? Or has felt like this and got past it and felt like your normal self again? I don’t feel like myself at all and I cry every day because I’m so fed up with feeling like this. I feel like this is just going to be it forever! Someone please send some positive vibes my way

Are you taking Pregnacare? I only learnt on MN that it makes lots of people nauseous so changing it could be helpful.

I promise you will feel better soon. At 10 weeks you are absolutely peak awfulness! From my experience and lots of ladies on here anyway.

Most people are fine on it

Congrats!

You are in the depths of it but I found once I hit 13/14 weeks I felt so much better.

@Olika i was taking pregnacare but stopped taking it as it made me feel even worse. So now I’m taking other vitamins instead.
thanks everyone. I’m really trying to just get through each day and thinking it’s one day closer to hopefully feeling better again!

Also 10 weeks and feel like shit! My house is also getting me down as it's so untidy and I feel overwhelmed by how much I have to do eventually. I'm going to take it a room/task at a time when I feel better in the coming weeks. Congratulations btw!

first trimester is really really tough , pregnancy is not easy but it is worth it at the end when you hold your baby . My 2nd child is 12 weeks old , i hated being pregnant and said never again but now she is here i think i could do it again .

10 weeks was peak misery for me. No useful advice, just hang in there. Your beautiful baby will be worth it.

Thank you everyone! 💕 I’m really going to try and think positively even when I’m feeling crap. It’s easier said than done but hopefully won’t be for much longer.
my previous 2 pregnancies weren’t this difficult in the first trimester so it’s taken me by surprise!

I totally get you. I'm 11.5 weeks. 10 was the absolute pits! This week I feel a little better but feeling sick for 6 weeks straight really takes it out of you.

I desperately wanted to be pregnant and am thrilled to be pregnant but I still feel miserable! Hold on in there you hopefully have under a month more of this.
