way too tired and sick

Seriously lately I have found myself with no energy whatsoever. It's a little insane to me, like I don't even want to get out of bed most days :-( but I have to, reading and doing homework for class is a struggle. Is anyone else going through this? What do you do to help boost your energy?

Re: way too tired and sick

  • Take it day by day and pray that 2nd trimester comes fast! Lol

  • Yes I feel horrible :( I just want to feel better and eat normal wahh
  • I have barely gotten out of bed all day. Sick and tired all day... 2nd tri can't come fast enough.
  • I feel you. Work is the only thing that saves me because I am too busy to think about how miserable I feel!! I am a high school teacher and I am always distracted at work. At home I just want to crumple up in a ball and never move again.

  • @pinottoparenthood I feel like you took the words out of my mouth. On our day off today I felt like the only thing I accomplished was discovering the various positions I could fall asleep in. All with a toddler jumping all over me.

    Ditto! At school, I do fine. Weekends... Not so much.
  • I cry - it's just too much sometimes. It doesn't help the exhaustion or 24 hour nausea though
  • I'm sorry you're going through this, but it's amazing to read that I'm not the only one... I'm literally falling asleep throughout the day when I sleep a solid 7-8 hours a night... I have no energy and feel sick ALL DAY LONG!!! I'm typically a very peppy, energetic person and love getting up before everyone to get stuff done around the house or go work out with a friend and I'm lucky I get in the shower these days... ugggggg... again, it's nice to hear i'm not alone, but anyone have any suggestions to get out of it??? Will it really be gone in the 2nd trimester??? so at least there is an end in sight?!?!?! :)
  • It is SO wonderful to have you ladies to confide in, and endlessly comforting to know I'm not alone!

    It is easy to get caught up in the emotional stress of feeling sick and exhausted all the time, worrying that my co-workers and friends think I'm a slacker or that I've become unreliable. I know this cycle of negative thinking isn't healthy for me or my growing sweet pea and doesn't help me feel better either. I've found that I can actually cope better when I surrender to it. I take a few more breaks than I used to throughout my work day to get outside in the fresh air - I don't know what it is about fresh air but it helps me deal with and overcome MS better than anything - and I try not to beat myself up about it.

    Of course it is easier said than done, especially with hormones raging!
