1st Trimester

Hard to get motivated?

Anyone else finding it hard to get motivated to do ANYTHING?  Just thinking of cleaning the kitchen right now takes all of my energy away.  I just can't get motivated!!

Re: Hard to get motivated?

  • I'm right there with you. For awhile I had a lot more energy between weeks 7-9 now that I am about to hit my 10th week mark I don't know what is happening? I'm so exhausted today and the same thing happened yesterday. I'm looking forward to the 2nd trimester where I will hopefully have more energy and be more productive.

  • Yeah, the house is a mess right now. I am so tired after working all day I can bring myself to get off the couch. It is terrible! But tonight is the night! I HAVE to do it! I am forcing myself.
  • lately I only get off the couch to go to the bathroom or to get food... I don't even want to admit to the disgusting habits that are forming by not doing chores around the house right now. In my defense, I feel like anything I do will make me puke.

  • I REALLY need to do some laundry and clean the kitchen.  Even if I get nothing else accomplished today, that needs to be done.  I just can't bring myself to get up and do it!  I'm glad I'm not the only one lacking motivation.

  • Same here. . . . we've been digging through the clean laundry that I've left on our kitchen table this week because I've been too freaking tired to fold any of it.  Sad
  • Yes, very.  I'm FORCING myself to go to the gym after work... forcing.  I've been slacking so much with it.  This will be the first day I go this week and I only went once last week.  Embarrassed  I'm so ashamed, lol.

  • Thank God I cleaned the apartment on Sunday because I've been absolutely exhausted this whole week! All I want to do is lay on my bed and watch tv. Getting out of bed every morning to go to work is a chore! Luckily my boyfriend has agreed to take over laundry duty for the remainder of the pregnancy Smile
  • lord - i can't even FORCE myself at this point to do anything . . . i'm so tired and so sick. all i can do is lay on the couch in the fetal position and wait for the nausea to pass. thank god ds takes LONG afternoon naps. they have been a lifesaver the past 2 days. and . . . yes . .. SO TIRED!! I have NO idea how I'd get through a work day if I worked out of the home.

    also - i am a COMPLETE neat/clean freak and just the smell of any type of cleaners or laundry detergent right now is making me so nauseous i can't stand it. 

  • Yes, I've been this way for a while now...folding one load of laundry is now an accomplishment for the day...
