7 weeks pregnant feeling very lonely and isolated

I am 29, unmarried but live with partner [we have only been together since may].
I found out a few weeks ago that I am pregnant.
I've never been pregnant before and it's been so much worse than I imagined :(. I feel soooo sick and have no energy . On top of that, this was an unplanned pregnancy with quite a new partner. I have no idea how people will react. A few friends know already but no family members know and nor does my work. Its so isolating and tiring having to pretend like everything's fine!

I am soooo overwhelmed rn :( im.sure I will love being a mum but this is a huge transition phase

I’ve been there. The first few months are hard. The second trimester is much easier. I didn’t tell many people until 20 weeks
Dont worry about it being unplanned or early in a relationship. We’re still together after more than 12 years and I know other who couples who had been together years before having a baby who didn’t stay together
It’s not easy but it does get easier

I don't think anything prepares you for the first trimester! I did expect to feel sick but my goodness, the tiredness!! I'd get straight home from work and have to sleep.
It may seem like ages away but 5 more weeks and things will hopefully start to improve for you ❤️
I find that someone always has something to say when someone's expecting 😂 single, with a partner... Married makes not difference. The main thing is how you feel about things and it sounds like you're looking forward to being a mummy x so congratulations!
