First trimester struggles

not sure what I’m looking for with this post- perhaps reassurance, perhaps solidarity. This is my second pregnancy and I have a 3 year old already. I’m around 8 weeks and really struggling. Nausea, sickness, tiredness, insomnia. Feeling isolated as it’s stopping me getting out and seeing friends etc. it was similar symptom wise last time, but I guess it just felt easier as i didn’t have a toddler to parent!
I have also been signed off work with the sickness and work have been crap. Just feel at the moment there is nothing to look forward to and everything feels a bit bleak. Is this normal?

Morning OP
I feel like I could have written this post, I am currently 7+2 with baby number 3. My older ones are 7 and 5.
This time round, the symptoms are hell. I feel so bad because I’m not myself, either feeling sick or uncomfortable.
So not advice unfortunately, just to say you’re not alone and we will make it through.
Hope the symptoms ease off for you soon x

7 + 6 today with a 2 year old, signed off with nausea and it’s TOUGH.

argh it’s rough isn’t it! I’m sure it will ease and this is just a season but when you’re in it it feels like a proper endurance test and hard to see light at the end of the tunnel. Hope things start to feel better for you soon 😊
