My first pregnancy I was so incredibly sick that I lost weight, and I was so upset at myself because I had worked so hard to get myself to my highest state of health prior to falling pregnant. The second pregnancy - not a single day of morning sickness! I'm not sure if it helps, but as you said, know you will return to your strong self, and know that letting yourself feel and write out all those emotions is strong, courageous, brave and amazing in my book xx Elisa {With Grace and Eve}https://www.blogger.com/profile/11416451148055700239noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1656816674102539431.post-78060570650787209612014-02-07T23:22:31.311+10:002014-02-07T23:22:31.311+10:00Visiting from Bron's...

I have been through the IVF path twice and I know what you mean about feeling like you should be grateful for just getting to that point and not complaining about anything else from that point onwards. However, you cannot control how your body deals with pregnancy and all the related discomfort. I can't imagine how horrible morning sickness all day must be... that first trimester is just such an exhausting period without the sickeness!! Hang in there, things will be sure to improve xxAmandahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14697932926715802541noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1656816674102539431.post-43575280743100489442014-02-05T11:25:35.217+10:002014-02-05T11:25:35.217+10:00You darling woman, I am so glad I read this with y...You darling woman, I am so glad I read this with your 'disclaimer' at the top because otherwise I would have been distraught for you!!! Remember that just because you fought so hard and wished so long with the strength of the GODS, you're still 100% human. How you feel is how you feel, despite what you think you SHOULD be feeling. It is what it is and pregnancy is no walk in the park for so many of us. Never feel guilty for just being who you are and never feel silenced because you think people won't understand. Even if they don't (and they will), they will always be able to provide empathy and comfort. Two things you need lots of right now, dear Sarah.<br />Be as gentle with yourself as you are with your baby. xMaxabellahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15761220164069379437noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1656816674102539431.post-2499055691828904962014-02-02T16:41:30.011+10:002014-02-02T16:41:30.011+10:00Remember its ok to ask for help and even if its &#...Remember its ok to ask for help and even if its 'normal' morning sickness it can be horrible. Take some time out when you need and its ok to ask your doctor for help if you think you need it.

In fact I think it's absolutely normal! I pride myself on my strong mind and being able to lift myself up and out of the deepest lows but pregnancy does funny things to the body and mind and there is no fighting it. It's good that you are writing it all down because you will look back and see the building blocks of a new kind of strength, the strength that will get you through the tough days of motherhood. I think part of the horribleness of pregnancy is to prepare us for the harder parts of motherhood. I know hearing this doesn't help now, and it feels like it will never end, and you will be sick forever but you will get through it. Don't worry about anyone else, what they think or say, just focus on you. I barely spoke to anyone in the early months of my first pregnancy, I had to just concentrate on myself and the tiny baby that was growing inside and if people can't understand that or have a problem with it it's their problem, not yours!<br />Big hugs to you. xxx<br />#weekendrewindKylie Purtellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00185153539010825877noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1656816674102539431.post-90692877570568286372014-01-31T20:58:08.426+10:002014-01-31T20:58:08.426+10:00Morning sickness is the worst - I remember lying o...Morning sickness is the worst - I remember lying on the floor of the bathroom and being unable to move and family members being angry at me as I wasn't helping them move. No one knows you, no one knows your body, no one can tell you how you feel. Pregnancy and all it's emotions is a roller coaster and I'm sure in the end you'll look back on it fondly. #weekendreviewShari from GoodFoodWeekhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03696282012818791828noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1656816674102539431.post-15997861390554546872014-01-31T20:50:29.779+10:002014-01-31T20:50:29.779+10:00I loathed being pregnant but only my closest frien...I loathed being pregnant but only my closest friend knew. It wasn't that I was sick a lot, actually it wasn't too bad in that respect, but I just hated the changes to my body and the feeling of being taken over by an alien! Of course when the little miss's came along it was all worth it. The hardest thing I find with motherhood and pregnancy is being honest. Noone wants to hear how bad you feel, how hard it is, they only want to know the good stuff. But life isn't all Pinterest Perfect! Anyway, I do hope the sickness eases for you though. xxAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09651116248452404269noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1656816674102539431.post-47220241571689489752014-01-29T22:26:39.666+10:002014-01-29T22:26:39.666+10:00"Morning' sickness is awful.

No one copes well with spending the better part of 7-8 weeks wanting to hurl, no matter how happy you are. Even trying to work out what you want to eat is exhausting.<br />And, sadly, the truth is that our body's and our minds can and will let us down. But God never, ever does. Not once. He is always there, through it all, and this is His miracle baby just as much as it is yours.<br />Praying for you sweetheart. xxxEssentiallyJesshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02372695554793237026noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1656816674102539431.post-35546732671036300372014-01-29T22:21:49.588+10:002014-01-29T22:21:49.588+10:00Glad you added the part at the top and are accepti...Glad you added the part at the top and are accepting all these feelings you are struggling with.

As the moaning we ALL do when we're battling sickness is nothing compared to the moaning we ALL do when we're tired, have sore boobs, can't settle our baby. Sorry you're so sick, that does suck but don't ever feel bad for hating it, it sucks eggs!

It is exhausting and all you feel like doing is lying in the bottom of the shower crying. I know how hard it is to eat when you know it's only going to come back. Hang in tight there babe because it will get better. After 12 weeks if you are still sick you can have maxolon tablets to help. I would definitely talk to your Ob too. These feelings are nothing to be ashamed of. Don't worry about your friends either. Just focus on you and the baby. That's all that counts right now.

But can I tell you that I kind of understand how you feel and I'm not Belittling how you feel in anyway. But when I was pregnant with my second baby I felt the same emotions and was quite sick. I was depressed and nothing I could do could get my mind out of the funk I founds self in. I got prayer to breakthrough what I was feeling and it instantly went. Later as I started to read some pregnancy books, depression is common through pregnancy especially through the early months. I would talk to your GP or Ob about what's been going on.
