Feelings/symptoms 7-8 weeks in

I personally am feeling like absolutely garbage the last two weeks or so (week 6-8). I can barely shower, can’t eat much, constant all day every day nausea with some committing, can’t get myself to do anything I don’t HAVE to do, anxiety and depression are present, intense irritability, wanting to lay down and nap always. Are others feeling this way? Curious if what I am feeling is normal this time of pregnancy. 

Re: Feelings/symptoms 7-8 weeks in

  • I’m feeling this way and have been since week 6 (currently week 8). I’m nauseous and lethargic and feel so useless! I’m also starting to get super irritated with the pregnant people around me who talk about how they had little to no symptoms during their first trimester. Either they’re lying or I got the short straw. It’s just not fair! 
    I’ve recently discovered that homemade ginger tea really does work wonders. I hate ginger so it took me forever to try it but it takes away my nausea (at least for a little bit).

  • Unfortunately I think this sounds completely normal :( hope you get some relief soon!!
  • I’m so sorry! I struggled through the same with my last pregnancy. Ginger chews really helped me a lot with the nausea. Also trying to eat small snacks often seemed to help. It was hard but I eventually just accepted that my body needed the rest and played catch up later in pregnancy when I was feeling a bit better. Hope you start feeling better soon!
  • I’m really I’m 7 weeks are really struggling with feeling emotional and irritable and depressed
