7 weeks and I've been in bed all day

suzybaby25 · Feb 26th, 2012, 12:12 PM

I feel like such a lazy slob. I haven't actually gotten sick but I and so queasy. I woke up at 7:00 and took and hour nap at 10:00. Now I'm just lying in bed. I can't muster up any energy to do my chores. Once I get up all I can think about is my bed. I'm really anxious for the 2nd trimester. I'm a teacher and it has been so hard to stand all day. I feel lazy if I sit down. Anyone have any suggestions?

I hear you!

I have really been suffering with sickness in the morning followed by all day nausea and it's really starting to bug me now.

I know it's all good, but when I have two youngster sons to look after and a house to run it's just hard work.

I haven't left the sofa all day today. As soon as I get up and start doing stuff I just feel really light headed and as if I'm going to vomit. Yesterday I had a bit of nausea but actually felt ok.

My dh has been wonderful sortin the boys etc and I feel so guilty. I never had this with the boys so it's been quite a shock to the system.

I am putting chores on hold ad doing them as and when I feel better. Even if it means sorting washing then having a nap, followed by preparing dinner and then having another nap!

I know it will get easier but just can't see the light at the end of the tunnel just quote yet!

I felt like that for weeks and am slowly starting to feel a bit more normal now. I ended up on anti nausea tablets and they've really helped me. I'm a teacher too. Managing to get through the day but can be in bed by 8 some nights! xx

I'm 7 weeks tomorrow and completely shattered and nauseas , I was back asleep by 12.30 until 4pm and ready for more sleep now. Went for brunch with my sister this morning nd didn't want any of it but had to et before she knew something was up! It's going to be a nightmare trying to keep schtum for the next 4 weeks 2 days until my scan. Urgh dreading work tomorrow!

I haven't been off the couch all weekend basically. I've been having cramps (not bad, I just feel gross like I'm about to get my period) and feeling hungover. I finally figured out the best way to describe it: like being hungover all day every day, only I never even get to party.

I'm a teacher too and I hide at my desk and zone out any periods I don't have kids. I'm totally useless at work. I do better when I chug lots of water and snack on granola or fruit often.

I cannot say how much I relate to this! I was telling my family that I feel hungover so they suggested ginger ale soda which actually did work! I am not feeling as hungover these days either. Also, I have trained myself to have a small snack whenever I wake up. It seems to curb some of the ill feelings
