Anyone else feel like working is becoming too much!

Maybe it's the fact that I am a preschool teacher? I am only 18 weeks and feeling so overwhelmed, stressed, and tired at the end of the work day. I feel as if I have o energy to clean or cook, poor hubby I know he's getting sick of doing everything. I just don't have the energy!!!

16 weeks here. I have the benefit of having a desk job so I get to rest my feet most of the day. I can't imagine being in the demands of a class of preschoolers. Give yourself a lot of credit and schedule some "me" time on the weekends to help you de-stress. Housework can wait! 

I've scheduled a prenatal massage and pedicure for tomorrow and CANNOT wait. I think it will be a great way to recharge and refocus.
