Sorry your pregnancy has been so rough on you so far

Hi Michele,

I am sorry to hear you are having a hard time but I know exactly how you feel. Lots of the posts here sound so happy but I am finding this part of the pregnancy so hard. I am def not blooming! I am signed off work with antenatal depression and anxiety which is making me into a right emotional mess and luckily OH is being supportive at the mo but I am sure his sympathy is going to run out soon. I also have sciatica which is such bad pain throughout the day and night.

I have been to a Acupuncturist this afternoon though and she was really good to talk to as she specialises in pregnancy and she was saying that this time is the usual time to get aches and pains etc and it is likely to get a lot better soon so hopefully your back pain etc will go away too.

I hope things get better for you. Just be kind to yourself and hopefully it will all pass.

Its a shame you have to work as it just adds extra stress for you, doesn't it but in a way I am not sure if being signed off has actually made me worse or not?

Well if you ever need a moan to someone else, feel free to message me!

Mine was ruff up untill 25 weeks. I like it now. Even the aches and pains. Well, apart from today, but I'm being moody today!

Hope you feel better soon.

I'm so sorry you are suffering from all of those nasty symptoms. I can relate to some of them. I have been suffering from heart burn, constipation, pinching of the siactic nerve so my leg goes numb, sinus stuff, and just being uncomfortable sleeping and doing daily routines. It's not fun and I totally feel your pain. Everyone always keeps saying that I am glowing and how cute I look, but I feel like the good year blimp and these symtoms are the pits. I hope you feel better soon so you can enjoy being pregnant.

Just remember that you are not alone and that many of us suffer from pregnancy symptoms.

This is one of my favourite smilies from another forum I visit.

I hope you're all feeling better soon. OH tells me to think of what's coming at the end of it. I'm sure that's meant to be helpful, but it just makes me think of labour and sleepless nights.
