My mum guilt is the worst it’s ever been right now and I don’t know what else I can do.
I have Hyperemesis Gravidarum and am in the early weeks of pregnancy. When my DH is at work, I have my toddler if he is not at nursery. I have no energy, being sick multiple times a day and nauseated 24 hours a day. I can’t play with him or move around and I am laid on the sofa whilst my toddler plays and watches endless tv. We haven’t been anywhere in weeks and I usually plan all sorts/go everywhere. Unless DH is home to cook and sort meals, I order food for my toddler which is never the healthiest or make something simple like toast, porridge, snacks etc. I can barely open the fridge without vomiting. When DH is home, I am in bed sleeping or resting and he is cooking, cleaning etc. I know it won’t last forever but I just feel a terrible parent and sorry for my toddler. Family helping is out of the question for a lot of reasons and I am relying on DH who is doing everything for us currently until I get better.
