feeling helpless

[juno92]

This isn't a question... more of a vent... I'm almost 4 and a half months pregnant and my morning sickness hasn't worn of yet... I can't do anything for myself.  I have to be sitting or lying down or I feel light headed and like I'm Gonna pass out. And then get really nauseous.  My fiance works over 50 hours a week and hasn't to do just about everything. I love that I'm having a baby and we're both really excited but I hate that I can't help out around. I can't even make the trips to the bathroom without getting lightheaded. I feel useless. I can't even get my own food most of the time. I'm used to doing everything for myself. I've always worked and Taken care of whatever I needed but right now I sit at home all day doing nothing. Earlier this year i was diagnosed with depression and anxiety and I'm scared I'm gonna falll back into depression and that's the last thing I want with this pregnancy. I guess I just need reassurance that I'm not the only one dealing with this..

I hate not being able to be self sufficient too I never thought pregnancy would leave me feeling this disabled. You aren't the only one.. Just try not to feel too guilty, my morning sickness finally died down at about 5 months (I'm 8 now) and I was able to do a bit more from then onwards. Good luck :)

Yeah i totally know what u mean. I hate having to rely on my bf for everything. I had surgury like 6wks ago and i couldnt get out of bed for anything for like a week. I nedded help getting to the bathroom. I felt so bad. I cant imagine for 4 months... Hopefully it will pass soon momma. But for now dont get too upset over it. I hope ur hubby doesnt male u feel bad about it cause i know u already do. Try thinking of easy things u can snack on throughout the day that dont require any cooking, fruit crackers granola bars, whatever wont make u sick. Hang in there!

Honey i get you! I had morning sickness for all 9months andbit got worst on the last trimester. I was put on bedrest at 22weeks and i couldnt do nothing for myself. Once i had my son august 28th, trust me on this, you will forget it all. Right after i popped my son out my mom asked if i remembered it all and i asked 'remember what?' lol just keep that in mind :)

I got in a fight with my fiance this morning... I know he's stressed and just attempting to do the best for us but I feel alone and I took it out on him. I know it's wrong and is my fault but I couldn't stop myself. Now he's at work and nothing was resolved and I'm Laying here in the bed. I feel really depressed. I had a panic attack right when he left for work Cuz I feel so helpless.  I managed to get it under control but I started feeling a pressure in my stomach. I just don't want anything to happen to my baby. I know this was my fault and I'm emotional and over reacting. I just really don't want to be on meds again or have to talk to a shrink. I don't want to stress him out anymore than he already is but I have no where to turn.
