First Trimester Woes

[anon1411]

I'm trying not to feel sorry for myself but so far this first trimester has been horrific 😔

With my first i had no symptoms whatsoever bar migraines and to be honest didn't feel pregnant at all.

This time round I'm struggling so much: ●Tiredness is INSANE!
●Extreme hunger but also
●Extreme nausea- I never know if it's because im hungry or because i want to throw up.
●Headaches
●Mood swings (especially grumpiness/crying)
●No motivation to do anything

Anybody else really struggled these first like 10-12 weeks? And does it get better? 😭😭

Yep! Mine went by 14 weeks. Others not so lucky

Oh I hear you. Both times I looked like I'd been ran over then hadn't slept for a month. It lifts sickness wise by 12 weeks and then by 14/16 weeks it is mostly back to normal but my good those first few weeks, always parked around 8 - 9 weeks for me, just awful

I totally feel this: the first trimester was horrific. I was exhausted and SO sick every single day, and had no idea how I'd make it through. All we can do is take one day at a time and look after yourself as much as you can.
Mine got mostly better about 16/17 weeks. 💕

Thanks guys 💝

I'm just not used to being held back, I'm always active and have energy to do things so going from that to being laid on the sofa everyday feeling nauseous and practically falling asleep by 8pm has hit me hard.

I'm ready for the pregnancy glow up now 🤣

Hang in there! It gets better. I suffered with severe nausea for 14 weeks.. The exhaustion didn't leave me until after 18 weeks. Now im 23 weeks and I'm exhausted again. I had no appetite and lost so much weight in the first trimester. I think my symptoms were at their absolute worst between 9-14 weeks! Slowly eased off after that!
