I'm 12 weeks, and I'm ready for this to be over

I'm already ready to have this baby, and its only been 12 weeks! I get it in my mind to cook something and so I decide that I'll try to make some chicken. Every time I think about trying to make it, I am repulsed by it. I work in retail (cashier) and am completely wiped out after work (even when my boss only gives me a 4 hour shift). It is to the point that at the end of the week I feel terrible and don't want to go back in. I have become lazy and my husband and my father-in-law enjoy telling me things they think are funny, but tick me off. Their favorite is "You're not broke, you're pregnant." I'm thinking about asking my boss to cut back on my hours or at least give me two days off in a row (currently Wednesday and Sunday). I'm also looking for a new job that will allow me to sit down a little more as we're not allowed to have anything to sit on when we're cashing people out. To top it all off, I live in Southern AZ. Its hot here in the summer. I don't know if its contributing to my misery, but oh well. I'm done complaining. Just needed to vent. I hope you all aren't annoyed by me for this. I am just really frustrated.

I think you're frustration is normal being pregnant is different for everyone Just remember your body is doing A LOT it's going to be tired. I know for me i have to take naps throughout the day ( I'm 9 weeks) as far as your husband goes maybe just inform him that you will be tired and you're hormonal and those comments he makes are hurtful....don't tell him this in front of his dad though. Not all men but some have a tendency to want to impress their dad's by being tough and making fun. Just be honest with him and don't take his comments too seriously

I'm in same boat! I'm a little over 10 weeks and miserable with fatigue and morning sickness. I had chicken broth for dinner and it still came up! Nothing sounds good. I'm a teacher so I am on my feet nonstop. The other day the kids asked me if I was okay bc I started to sweat profusely! I have 9th graders, so they notice everything! No one knows yet that I am pregnant, so I blame everything on allergies right now. I'm not talking to my SO currently bc he got me mad yesterday, so...hormones!!! He said something stupid, and I just upset...it's nice to know others feel how I'm feeling! On a side note, here is my little bean from Thursday's ultrasound! He or she is so much bigger from week 6!!! Heartbeat strong!

At 12 weeks, I was having awful heafaches, throwing up all the time, had zero energy and couldn't sleep. It SUCKED. But it did get better! The second trimester was great, things start to get better. Third tri is a little more difficult in terms of fatigue and weird pains. I know it's difficult right now, my pregnancy was difficult for a long time but my son is 3 months old now and I think about how insanely worth it it really was. Oddly enough right after he was born.. I missed being pregnant! Even after all the crap I went through. I know it's difficult now but I promise.. at some point soon, it will get better. You'll realize in several months that you don't remember how much it sucked.. I already can't wait until we can have another one and I felt like I wanted to die at the beginning!
I realllllly hope things get better for you soon and tell your husband and father in law that when they're pregnant- they can start harassing you because then is when they will know how it feels. But until that happens.. they can quit it. I had to tell my husband to stop bugging me early on too.. haha he stopped when I nearly threw up on him. Anyway good luck!!

Thanks. My husband stopped saying things to me thankfully. His dad still tries to be an idiot, but his dad has been that way since before I married his son. I don't know why he thinks he has to do that. I don't know why he thinks its so funny to mess with a pregnant woman who is so hormonal and cranky.
