I'm 6 weeks pregnant with my first. After dealing with infertility and taking fertility treatment, I had expected when I got here I'd be feeling nothing but excitement and relief. Except I just feel terrible.
I'm tired all the time and nap 1-2 times a day. All day nausea. Headaches. Can't eat anything other than plain toast and rice crackers. Boobs are massive and sore. Green diarrhoea and a horrible feeling in my tummy. Feeling hot. Heaps of extra saliva. Indigestion. Peeing all the time. Oh and did I mention tired??
I know it's meant to be a good sign that you're feeling sick and that the baby is hopefully growing strong. But I can't enjoy it feeling like this.
I'm off work until week 8 and after that I'm back to school as a full time teacher. I don't know how I'm going to cope.
Anyone else feeling just rubbish or have any first trimester survival tips?
