im Currently 6W+2D pregnant with baby #3. Im honesty struggling SO much right now with sickness and tiredness that my house is getting neglected by it. Before getting pregnant I loved nothing more than blasting songs on my Alexa and deep cleaning the house while the 2 older ones were at school. Now I just cannot physically face it! Cleaning product smells make me urge, I feel like I need to lye down constantly and I just don’t have the slightest bit of energy to even pick up the tv remote! Even enjoying the dishwasher makes me want to vomit! I feel awful. I can’t be the only pregnant lady feeling like this right now, surely??? I feel lazy and depressed when I see the state of the house (which reduced me to tears this morning!) DP works nights so he’s sleeping while I’m suffering during the day. He has been doing bits for me on his weekends off, a quick whip around with the hoover, cleaning out animals etc (we have indoors cats) but none of the stuff I would usually do like scrub the bathrooms!!
I’ve considered even hiring a cleaning just for a one off deep clean but feel so embarrassed by the house at the moment! When will I have a spurt of energy and when will the cleaning fairies come to visit while I nap? 😭
sorry for the rant and the “woe is me” post but this pregnancy is truly kicking me in the bum!!! 😞
