About 8 weeks pregnant.

Well so far i can't say im loving being pregnant at the moment with all these symptoms going on.
Each day its getting harder to get out of bed and get dressed or anything because i'm just so tired. I feel sick to the point that i feel like i'm about to throw up but i don't, i cry alot more than usual and it doesnt help that my boyfriend complains that i dont go to his house often enough i've told him i just want to sleep and laze around here and take things easy but he still pressures me to go round though i always say no and keep my foot down, i'm moving in with him in a few months when his mums moved out but right now i just want to stay in my own house where i have everything i need.

I'm getting so stressed out, my dad works quite abit and so i babysit my 14 year old brother and he just doesnt do anything, he uses more pots than he should which i have to clean up after him he's cheeky and sarcastic and its just really getting to me. Everything is i'm at the point to wanting to scream at everyone and tell them to leave me alone.

I still havent had a phonecall from a midwife yet to book an appointment i went to see my doctor nearly 3 weeks ago now and i havent heard anything.

Just like spade said EVERYTHING you are feeling is normal.  & the sickness will start to fade in time. Your bf needs to understand that your body is going thru a lot of changes right now & you need your rest & maybe even your space.  If he wants to see you so bad then he should come to your house where you are feeling the most comfortable.  Maybe suggest to him that he do some research on early stages of pregnancy then he might understand more where you are coming from.

Not only is your brother old enough to clean up after himself, but he is old enough that he doesn't need a babysitter.  I understand that your dad may want you around to keep an eye on him, but he is more than old enough to do his own cleaning.  He is just trying to see what he can get away with.  You put your foot down with your bf now put your foot down with your brother.   Most important right now you need to take care of yourself & your little bean.  Being stressed is not good for you or for the baby.

Hope things get better!  Lots of luck!

Everything you are feeling is normal.

Is there anyone else who can babysit your brother?  At 14, he is old enough to clean up after himself - dont clean up after him.

Call your midwife and follow up with her.  Sometimes its necessary to prod a little.

I hope you feel a little better soon.
