    I'm doing really bad. I am 6 weeks and I feel I'm dying a slow death. I have prayed to God to give me the strength, but this is so hard I have a new found respect for mothers.

    I had a meltdown this afternoon. I’ve been so nauseous, exhausted and always hungry 😭😭 I’m on week 7. Thank you for this video. I was even thinking maybe I don’t want this anymore 😭

      I hear ya, sweet girl! I'll be reaching week 7 on Tuesday, and just 3 days ago during the weekend the morning sickness started to kick in. It usually comes in the mornings and in the evenings. But today was my day at work feeling sick 🤒. I've been crying behind my desk and putting my head down because of how bad I get the nasuea waves. I have to spit because of so much saliva that builds. I couldn't contain my stress and emotions. And that's how I found this video. During my lunch time, I went to buy ginger ale. It has helped a lot! I managed to eat 3 saltiness crackers, I hope I can keep it down.
      But it is soothing to think that my baby is doing all of it, and that makes the pain easier to endure for me. Though it is a constant fight. 😭

    Teachers must be given at least 6 weeks rest in the first semester. It is not in anyone's benefit that they do a million things everyday(planning, photocopy, substituting, following with homework and projects, conferencing with parents, covering duties, solving behavior issues, analyzing results, making tests and quizzes, making worksheets, laminating, etc) and having to deal with nausea, fatigue, sleeplessness, mood swings, knowing that they have their own families to take care of.

      I'm a vet assistant who is 11 weeks pregnant and I rarely even get to eat at work or stop for a 5 minute break. Almost passed out in a 3+ hour surgery today. I'm exposed to dangers all day every day. There are way more physically demanding jobs than a teacher.

      Same I'm a vet assistant in a very busy clinic. Was assisting in a 3+ hour surgery today with no lunch/time to grab a snack. This is a normal day for me. So afraid my physically demanding job is going to hurt me or my baby especially after almost passing out today.

      Yes! Me too . I work in an icf group home and I am always on my feet, lifting way more than 20lbs and oftentimes picking up clients because we only have 1 hoyer machine etc
      I transferred to another department since but in the mean time I’m still here and I’m exhausted

    Great tips but I work at a factory on an assembly line unfortunately I get two 10-minute breaks and a 30 minute break and we have to leave and be back in that amount of time by the time we get outside or to the break room that knocks off about 5 minutes

      I know it is very hard having a job when your on your feet all day and a lot of employers have no sympathy toward pregnancies especially big corporations, I was pregnant at a station casino and worked doing heavy lifting and I have epilepsy long story short I was treated very horribly and lost my pregnancy and now I dont even know if I will be able to keep my job if I get pregnant again I actually might have to quit

    I like it! Snacking like a hobbit to keep the nausea bug down. That's easy to remember when bouncy fits happen I do get nauseous. It is frustrating ,but at least my symptoms are more mild the second than with a girl.
