I'm feeling so tired and nearly always got a funny tummy. I'm finding it really hard to keep coming into work! I was late this morning didn't get out of bed till 7:20 supposed to leave mine about 7:30-7:40!!

Thinking about asking work if I can work from home till it eases up a bit or seeing if I can change my hours. But I was wondering how everyone else has dealt with it???

Hi
How pregnant are u?

Moulder86

Only bout 7/8 wks but my dodgy tummy and sickness along with my tiredness are really gettin to me.

i also found it really hard to work in the beginning i was also feeling sick
if you can work from home thats great!
some tricks i found was to eat often at work, get some air, and generally take it a bit easy -some of those things that i would have really stressed out about before i just let wash over me.
i know its a cliche but in time it does pass ( im still waiting..)

GOOD LUCK

I am finding work quite hard, although my job is pretty easy, its a long day!

I feel sick throughout the day all day and i too find eating is the only way to help it! i have been and stocked up on low fat ginger bscuits and digestives

This probably sounds silly but I feel guilty for asking if I can sort something out to work from home. I guess because I'm not showing or you can't really tell other than my say so that I'm pregnant I feel kinda guilty.

I know it's early days but it's the icky tummy that's been keeping me up or waking me up early hours that's why I'm so tired! I'm the sort of person who needs my sleep and for me to be kept up or woken up makes me a very grumpy tired person!!

hang on in there...if you're 8 weeks then you should just have another 4 or so to go and then we'll be feeling marvelous...least that's what they tell me!..and thats what I'm hoping for!


Every day is different for me. Some I'm more sick than others. But every day I'm exhausted. Maybe take a day or two off sick, sleep and recharge your batteries. Then start counting down the days till we're blooming!!

This time will pass really quickly, I have to just get on with it, my two kids wake me up at 6am, so there is no chance of a lie in here.

With two kids to sort out I cant just take a day off unfortunately.
I am looking forward to second trimester, but you have to try and enjoy every minute, even when you are chucking up. It is a wonderful experience that some never get the opportunity to enjoy, each day is another day closer to seeing your gorgeous baby. You will get there, chin up, and dont fret about taking the odd day off, you have a chance to rest, so take the opportunity.

I don't get paid for days I take off sick and I can't afford to do that, that's why I'm thinking about asking if I can work from home a couple days a week but still feel guilty about doing it.

I'm just hoping like you say it stops in another 4/5 wks ish!!

no sick pay? Thats a shame...yes do ask - you've got to think abotu yourself at times like this! Every ounce of energy counts!
