I feel horrible! 8wks and counting down to relief...

Hey ladies,
I just had to vent, see if anyone else is this bad...
Saw the heart beat last Thursday, measured 7w4days. Very exciting, I was very relieved and happy. I was a little nauseous and tired but nothing too bad. I still had an appetite and was eating well...even had energy to walk my dogs, work 1-2 massages (I am a massage therapist).
Then, like a switch over the weekend I have felt more and more miserable. Constantly nauseous, although I have not actually thrown up (thank god), intense fatigue (like I am getting the flu), complete exhaustion (all I want to do is lie down), nothing sounds good to eat but I force food down my throat cause I know my baby needs the nutrition. Trying to get lots of fluids but everything I put in my mouth seems to want to come back up. On top of it, I have been tossing and turning, dreaming a lot, peeing a lot...not sleeping well at all!
Oh well, don't get me wrong, I am very thrilled to be having my 1st baby but I never expected this! Hopefully 12 weeks does mark the end of this misery. I am counting down! It's just tough, cause I feel so alone, isolated in this 1st trimester sickness
Almost a little depressed.
Thanks for your support ladies ~ this blog is a good reminder we are not alone!

Re: I feel horrible! 8wks and counting down to relief...
This is temporary, I just keep telling myself that. ;-)
GSx1 - 05/13/2013
GSx2 for T&B - EDD 6/21/2015 - They're having a GIRL!
So ready to be over the nauseous stage of pregnancy ( although it comes back at the end of pregnancy when there isn't anymore room in your stomach and the baby's feet are in your ribs!)
So happy though about this little bun baking in the oven.
We love our fur babies Luna (2013) and Dozer(2014)!
I don't know what happened but on Sunday I was just so done. I told DH that I wanted to lie down and he got all snarky with me "isn't that what you did yesterday" (when I had finally managed a long shower, and actually dried my hair and put on makeup for the first time in ages) and I flipped. And kindly reminded him how I have been getting up with DD on the weekend and letting him sleep in. And how he has been having coughing fits and keeping me awake half the night.
He left me alone after that and I slept for maybe an hour and a half before DD came up to find me and ask me to come downstairs with her. I just wanted to curl up the whole rest of the afternoon. Feeling a little better today but still not great, and DD asked to stay home and I honestly just wanted to say yes so badly lol
Thank you, ladies - for all sharing your complaints, it helps. I am sorry we are feeling so horrible but we are not alone.
I just gave myself permission to take today and tomorrow off. Life is too short and this baby needs my attention/my rest. I feel like I am in the thick of it and I know it will pass.
And to those whose husbands' are not being understanding...I have just said 'I am building our baby here. Kinda busy and just need your love and support.'
Luckily my hubby has been supportive. I know it's hard for them too when we are 'down and out' week after week...but it's all worth it in the end!
