tired and unmotivated

Hey ladies!! So I'm on my 4th pregnancy, I have very busy 1, 6, and 8 year old kiddos. This pregnancy  (8weeks) seems so very different though. I'm exhausted, unmotivated, and generally feel awful all the time. Between the morning (or all day) sickness and headaches from the zofran...I just feel like I'm dragging all the time. I don't feel depressed, as I have struggled with depression in the past I know what that feels like. I just don't feel like myself. Anyone else experience this?

I hope it passes for you also...But the same, my house is a disaster, poor hubby has been working 12 hr days...I have been giving my older two lunch ables for dinner and my 1yo the Gerber pasta pickups cause I don't feel like cooking...laundry gets done at this point when everyone's close to being out of clean clothes. I work pt from home, with only 2 days that I need to stop in my office, but it takes everything I have just to make it in those 2 days...thank god my boss is a psychologist and very understanding...just don't know how much more of this I can take. I'm normally a get up and go person, always running around and busy...just feels so odd to be this way

I feel the same. I'm pregnant with my 2nd and I have given up on house work and just getting things done in general. I hope it passes because it's driving me nuts...
