Pregnancy just doesn't

[Muppet]

Agree with me!
Seems like its nothing but stress. It's so tiring I could barely stand to wait for my bus to work earlier. Either there's something not right with my pregnancy or my body just doesn't like it!
So tired and pathetic all the time!
Wish I could work normal shifts and not lose money because I have to give up shifts!
And I'm not even half way yet! So stressful I have no idea what to do :/
I'm 17 years old not 70!

Anyone else feel like this?

No matter what age you are, pregnancy will make you feel like this at times!
Try and nap through the day, but not too much otherwise you'll never sleep at night. I did this, and tried to eat snacks regularly through the day instead of big meals and this helped me feel a bit more energetic. Try going for a short walk, although you don't feel up to it a walk in fresh air will make you feel better. Mention it to your midwife as you may need an extra supplement, such as iron if you are anaemic. Being anaemic can make you feel like this so it's worth talking to mw about it. I hope you feel better soon

I feel your pain hun im 29 weeks and had to quit my job because I couldn't stand more than three hours w/o blacking out but I was able to hold out until I was around 24weeks

I feel exactly the same sometimes, it's as though my body just isn't suited for it.. i sometimes even wonder if it's because i'm so young and maybe my body just isn't ready..

It can be pretty upsetting but at the end of it, you'll have your baby and all of this will be in the past. Your doing your best and that's all you can do so keep at it and try to stay positive (as hard as it is). xx

Thanks everyone
I'm trying my best! It is a struggle :/ especially with added stress of finding a house and preparing for a baby at this age, which is something I never thought I would have to accommodate so!
It certainly helps being able to have a little moan on here and to know I'm not the only one, not some freak!
