Anyone have trouble working now?

[tootired]

I have really been struggling with feeling like crap (I'm 11 weeks along) and I've already missed WAY too much work, had to leave early a lot, etc. I feel really bad, and part of me is scared I'm going to end up losing my job.

Any advice for having to work full time while tired all the time and not feeling good during pregnancy?

You could talk to your boss and explain what's going on, I told my bosses and take breaks when I get tired I work more than 40hrs a week but am cutting my hrs some in the summer good luck hun

ive had a lot of time off to due to SPD! They cannot penalise you for time off thats pregnancy related and they certainly cant fire you! Just take any time you need, as everyone says to me, your baby and body are far more important than your work. I will be going back when I have received physio, the right medication and a support belt for my pelvis. Until then, im in agony and will not put myself through it at work!

I miss work and would like to be there but I wont force it, as my Dad keeps saying, listen to your body

If you're off due to sickness and fatigue, it should lift anytime soon, mine did at 10 weeks, unfortunately SPD is a problem Im stuck with!

Hope you get back to work soon and I hope its put your mind at rest

Oooh and congratulations

I'm a stay at home mum for now but when
I was pregnant with DD my company were so not understanding, my boss made me feel like he was going to get rid of me so I fOrced myself to stay til 37 weeks and I really struggled big time, it made me more unwell because I was stupid and pushed myself,, my advice is listen to what your body is telling you, they can't just sack you when it's pregnancy related, there are so many laws and loopholes in place to protect you! Don't worry Hun xxx

Take a nap on your lunch hour.

Go for a walk on your lunch hour. Take some stretch breaks.

Talk to your boss about reducing your hours.

They cant can you for pregnancy, but if they don't know that it is pregnancy related your job could be at risk.
