I'm 10 weeks pregnant now, and i have quite a lot of work to do. My husband's parents came for a visit for 1 month and i couldn't rest that much even know they helped with some house work. It's been x-mas and new year and holiday to a couple of places. They just left and My husband is busy working from 7 am. and come home at 6 pm. sometimes 8 pm. WE have a diving business and he's diving a lot, while i do the paper work ( make the booking for customers and reply to their emails every day, everything apart from diving ) apart from that is house work, and look after 2 dogs. Last few days i've been busy with his visa and work permit extension ( preparing papers and contact those offices. Yesterday i felt so tired so i had a nap, but i knew there's more work waiting so i couldn't sleep that well. I know i have to do things slower, but it's difficult because there's a lot to be done.

i get up at 6:30 and we take the dogs for a walk, then he goes to work. i go to bed at around 10 pm. or a bit later.

Good thing is i have my laptop at home to do the emailing, and i will drive to the office if i need to fax. or do paper work. The office is only 5 minutes drive anyway.

i will need a couple of hours for a nap today ( when my duty is done )

How much work do you do and how much do you rest in the first trimester?

I work 8.30 til 5 and i have a 6 year old son so no rest what so ever for me lately i always feel tired. Just hoping it will get better.

I used to work from 6:30am until 4:00pm and in the end was that tired that my hours were changed from 8am until 2pm so I could get more rest
