My mood while writing this blog: grumpy |
Hi all,
so i have gone from being elated to be in my second trimester to being grumpy, fed up and crying! The sickness hasn't quite eased as much as i thought it had so am still suffering a little. I've coped with it for so long i don't know why a bit longer should hurt but it seems like ive taken all i can. I'm so fed up of being ill and tired and having a small appetite but not liking any food. If i'm out and i see people eating i get so jelous seeing them tuck in to food i would normally enjoy.
Apart from the sickness issue im also starting to show a bit which again was exciting at first but now im feeling emotional i just feel frumpy like no one can tell its pregnancy weight yet. Totally irrational i know but it keeps popping into my mind and i find myself pulling my cardigan closer to hide my belly.
Then there is the crying. I had a proper toddler tantrum today and cried my eyes out because i couldnt find anything that i wanted to eat. It just exploded out of me from no where. I'd had a trickle of tears over the past couple of days over nothing really but this was like nothing ive ever known! Luckily matt was a gem and just cuddled me and comforted me until id finished! Ha, i feel such an idiot now but i couldnt have stopped it as didnt know it was coming! I do feel better now though and not on the brink of tears all the time.
I really hope things improve soon. Not just for my sanity but there is only so long that people are sympathetic to constant complaining which is all i feel i do!
Sorry i seem to have gone on a bit ladies! Does anyone find this has happened or is happening to them. Feel grateful but hopeless at the same time and like enough is enough?
Thanks for listening, hope your all doing great, take care, kate x

Sunday, 2 Aug Awww hun sorry to hear you have been feeling like this, But it is all pretty much normal and to be expexcted but no-ones tells you this part like all the other not very nice things that come with pregnancy! I was exactly the same my first bit of pregnancy up until 16 weeks was horrendous and even though as you know i wanted this little baby for years you cannot imagine how ill you can be in pregnancy and how miserrable and grumpy you can feel and as much as im ashamed to admitt this i was that sick of being ill and having no appetite that i thought to myself what have i done! Why am i putting myself through this and forgot what it felt like to be normal not to throw up at least 5 times a day and feel like absolute shite! and yes all i could do was sleep, sleep, sleep as when i slept i didn't feel sick or ill just content if that makes sence! I'll always rememeber James Taylor barking at me at work saying 'pregnancy isn't an illness its a blessing!' Yeah maybe but for a great deal of us it makes you feel so bloody cack!
Oh well sweetie it will ease in the next few weeks as for the emotions you and poor Matt will become used to them Mo had to poor him! And you will begin to enjoy it soon i do think about people who get it easy in pregnancy like Jess and its a breeze to them and think Jammy buggers lool! Oh well i had a horrible pregnancy and a wonderful birth so lets hope you have a wonderful birth too well i think you will! and it won't always be like this hun keep yer chin up i had to! And i assure you that gorgeous little baby inside you will be oh so worth it in the end! I promise i know it seems like ages away but it will fly and before you know it that lil baby will be here and all this will be a distant memory and it won't matter a sausage! All the best give Matt my love steph xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
