Non-working first time moms

edited September 2021 in April 2022 Moms
Hi guys,
I am brand new here so please tell me if I am doing something wrong/ duplicating the thread/not using proper abbreviations etc. 

I am a FTM, 8w3d, I had a very stressful and demanding job so before we started trying me and my DH decided that I quit my job.  I did, we got pregnant and now I have been at home for the last almost 8 weeks. My DH became the only household provider, he is totally fine with it, we planned it but I can’t help but feel guilty. I wanted to use this time to start my own business from home but I am not. I am so lucky that I barely have any nausea and slight fatigue but I have such hard time motivating myself to do anything. I workout daily and then just want to watch youtube and do nothing. Lots of shame for wasting time. Not making money. Not feeling sick. Just lazy I guess. :( Anyone is in the same boat?
Thanks! Sorry for a novel

    Hi @doxiemoxie212! I hope you are having a lovely day! I did read the “read this first” post, thank you! That’s where I saw a list of abbreviations but still have to often refer back to it:) Will introduce myself shortly :-)

    The main takeaway from the READ THIS FIRST POST is that we are a community and don't create one-off threads - we try to make threads where everyone can participate and get/give support together. Also, if you wouldn't mind changing your username - it's very hard to tag anyone with a ton of random letters/numbers ;)

    @doxiemoxie212 Oh, I thought this threat was something that others are going through also. I don’t believe that I am the only stay at home first time mom. But sounds like you have more experience on this site and strongly feel that my threat is not appropriate. My apologies. I will delete it.
    Also, I did change my username but it is not changing in the threat. I even updated the app but no change.

    I can not delete it @doxiemoxie212 Perhaps only the admin has the rights to do that.

    You cannot delete threads. Feels free to join us in the questions thread or the randoms thread if you'd like to :)
