Exhausted

Kle2922 · January 2010

Was going to wait till I went to the Dr. on Feb 8th to say anything, but i'm needing some mojo. I am 7 weeks pregnant and feeling every bit of it. With Ashlyn I threw up everyday from week 6 to 16. Well lucky me, the nausea and exahaustion has set in full force in the last 2 days. I'm not in my own home, don't have my hubby, and taking care of 3 kids. I'm tired and feel yucky! Help make me smile:)

I'd be due with #2 two days before Ashlyn's 2nd birthday. Crazy timing.

Wow, congrats on your pregnancy!

I hope you feel better soon. I can't imagine feeling like you do and watching 3 kids!!! Power through, you'll be home soon (won't you?).

Meg41208 · January 2010

congrats!! your babies could share a birthday - how cool would that be?

Kle2922 · January 2010

I don't go home till Feb. 6th. I think this is my official good deed for the year.

JenRose05 · January 2010

Yay! Congrats! I feel ya on the m/s deal Some people get lucky and some don't...agh! I'm taking Zofran at the moment but taking an extra dose of Vitamin B6 will help a bit, fresh slced ginger to suck on, and sour sour candies. Eating crackers etc just made it worse for me. I'm hoping you feel better soon and it doesn't decide to go all the way to 16 weeks!

Oh my. I'm happy for you for the pregnancy but not so much about the sickness and the situation. Poor thing. It's your brother you're helping, right? He owes you SO HUGE. I'd imagine your DH feels bad that he can't help you from that far away.

CONGRATS!! I hope you feel better soon and get some of your energy back. I had the same with morning sickness and the same length. NO FUN!! Hope it doesn't stick around as long.

KristenBtobe · January 2010

Congrats!! I'm sorry you're feeling so crummy far from home. You are a saint for helping your brother in this way. Hope you start feeling better soon.

lisamm1 · January 2010

Aww congrats! That must be hard being away from hubby and home. I hope you feel better soon!!!

cops_wife · January 2010

Congratulations! I'm sorry you're feeling so crummy. I'm terrified of having morning sickness again with one toddler. Three kids and no husband must be brutal!

curlypie1 · January 2010

First of all congratulations!!! That's so exciting! Secondly, I truly feel sorry for the situation you're in. I got sick right around 7 weeks this time around as well. I half-jokingly told DH just yesterday that if I were to ever get pregnant again, I wanted to rent out a hotel room that only I was allowed in for two months. :-) Those were some rough weeks of taking care of one toddler. Hang in there! Let us know if we can do anything to put a smile on your face! Plus, if it's any consulation. I was sick way longer with #1 than with #2. I'm finally starting to see the light at 12 weeks.

adamsbabble · January 2010

Congrats on the pregnancy!! That is so exciting.

I feel for you though. My second pregnancy was rough. Ava was just over a year old and I was taking care of my friend's little boy while she worked out her daycare issues, and he was about about 6 months old at the time.

Dani3679 · January 2010

Aw, congrats! Boo to the sickness, hopefully it's only around for a day or 2. (We can wish right!?)

vbmeg · January 2010

Congrats! Sorry you are feeling so sick! I know how it feels to be pregnant with a toddler too. Hang in there! My kiddos are exactly 2 years and 2 weeks apart!

doodlebug914 · January 2010

I am so sorry you're not feeling well, but CONGRATS!!!!! on you pregnancy!! I hope the next week goes smoothly!

firegirlkorb1 · January 2010

Congratulations!!!

klee411 · January 2010

Congratulations on the pregnancy!!! Such good news! I hope you get through the first tri quickly and can feel better soon!

DRockH · January 2010

I feel you! I am exhausted too and this morning was the first morning where I really felt like I was going to puke! no good!

tiffany41108 · January 2010

wow, congrats!

i hope the nausea lets up for you.

Lucky_N_Love · January 2010

Congratulations!! Keep hanging in there helping out your brother. You are definitly doing your good deed. He should come and help you after the baby is born ha ha! That would be way cool if the kids shared a birthday (They probably wouldn't think so though)

addslove · January 2010

Congrats, that is wonderful news!! I hope you start feeling better...or can at least get some rest.

hav2run · January 2010

Congrats on your pregnancy! I hope the nasty 1st tri symptoms subside quickly. You could have two with the same birthday! That would be fun.

MrsMandaK · January 2010

Ahhh! Congats! Sorry you're feeling so badly away fom home.

mizbiz · January 2010

Awww, congratulations!! I'm sorry that you're feeling bad away from your DH and not in your own house. Hang in there and just keep thinking about how you'll feel so much better in a week or so when you're home with him and just one kiddo!

KYmama9286 · January 2010

Congrats on the pregnancy! and ((Hugs)) morning sickness is SO HARD and I'm sure being away from DH and being busy w/ the kiddos isnt making it any easier--can you get a prescription for zofran? I found that when I was really sick/nauseous one of the few things I could keep down was minute maid cherry limemade frozen cups--the tartness and coldness worked for me (when literally nothing else stayed down) HTH!

Miller238 · January 2010

Congrats!!!!! How exciting. Sorry you aren't feeling well. Hopefully it won't last as long this time around! H&H 9 months!

Moesten · January 2010

Congratulations!

I am right there with you. This round has been kicking my butt with nausea and dizziness. With K I was just tired all the time - not nauseas so this has caught me off guard. I am due 3 days before K's second birthday!

Hang in there - it will pass. What has been helping me is to keep something mild in my stomach, Ginger Ale made with real ginger and stealing away any opportunity to lay down and rest. Very little housework or laundry has gotten done in this home in the past month.

kel716 · January 2010

Congrats!!!

All I can say is power through the exhaustion... it will pass in time.

AnnieG123 · January 2010

Congratulations!! Hope your feeling better soon!

katpres06 · January 2010

Congrats, that's so exciting! I bet you are exhausted having been through all you have in the past few week! Good luck : )

asphire · January 2010

Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (hope that made you smile)

So happy for you but I am sorry you are so exhausted. Thinking of you!

Ashlyn will be an awesome big sister and you will be a great mom of 2.

andailey · January 2010

Congratulations!! How exciting. But I'm very sorry to hear that you are so exhausted and feeling rotten on top of taking care of 3 kiddos! How sweet of you though to help your brother. I hope the m/s doesn't last for long!
