I just feel so uggggg.... I don't want to do anything. I know most of it is pregnancy, but Any ideas on how to at least feel like doing a load of laundry? I am sleeping as well as can be expected, but still feel like i need to sleep more. I would say I get a good 8-10 hours albeit broken hours. So any advice?

Eat loads of citrus and spinach!...you'll feel better in no time

Paymaster

Or you will have horrible acid reflux.

Actually, spinach and lettuce are not good for acid reflux either.

Markel

I think that's what Paymaster was saying.

For me broken sleep is worse than no sleep and although my kids all sleep through the night my new puppies dont...grrrr! The best thing is to try everything you can not to get woken up at night, even if it is the other children waking you up. They have to start sleeping all night sometime. A good thing to remember is that any laundry or chores will still be there when you do feel better so dont let the small stuff stress you cause that will just make things worse. Hope you feel better soon.
(P.S. You can also show the hubby what a washing machine is that might help. I get my kids to help me, even when they were little cause they thought it was fun)

I am feeling a little better today. I guess I was having too much sugar just didn't realize it. So I have taken myself off most of the sugars and upped my water as well. I have an appointment with my midwife today as well so hopefully she will have some advice as well. I bought a bunch of Friut and Veggies last night to snack on and eat raw, as that is good for me as well.

I know the chores will always be there tomorrow, but I am the one at home and I am expected to keep the house. I also can't stand the mess every pregnancy I have I get to be more and more of a neat freak added to that the whole nesting is kicking in.

I just have to be in top form next week and the following week as I will have an extra child to run after. I am taking in my 7 yar old brother for 2 weeks this summer since there is no one to watch him while my mom works. I am going to go cookoo.

Thanks for some of the advice. I do have to watch the acid reflux as I have massive heartburn with just about everything I eat anymore. I just keep telling myself 12 - 15 weeks and I will be done and into my favorite stage. I am not a happy preggo. But I love my Newborn stage. Can't wait.

Okay gotta go get the kitchen done so I can make some breakfast for the kids, then get everyone cleaned up to go out for the day.

So you do have heartburn? I think you might have a baby with tons of hair!

Mommypooh

I have had massive heartburn with all my kids. They had some hair but not a lot and almost all blond.

RIVERWIDOW

Massive morning sickness with my daughter(2nd child) and she was born with tons of red hair. None with my boys who were born practicly bald. Of course, craving onion rings made with Bermuda onions the whole pregnancy probably didn't help. And the most astonishing part of that , is to this day Kellie (now 33) hates onions. picks them out of everything.
