Pregnant and constantly ill

Currently in my second trimester, pregnant with DC3. I've had one illness after another for the past couple of months since getting pregnant, viral and bacterial infections etc. It's really making me feel down as I don't even remember how it's like to feel well and in myself again. Work is piling up but I have no motivation, I'm fed up of writing "sorry for the delayed response as I've been unwell". I have low energy levels and am constantly coughing so haven't even enjoyed interacting with DC. I lose patience easily and feel like a bad mother. On top of that I have gestational diabetes so have to be careful and can't even comfort eat. My previous pregnancies felt like a breeze compared to this one..! Can anyone relate, and any tips for getting through this...? Sad
