I was exactly the same way. When I first found out I was pregnant, and feeling it, with morning sickness and everything, i stayed in bed for 3 days and didn't feel like doing anything. At the time I was unemployed as well, and sat at home everyday all day, and I didn't feel like going anywhere, or doing anything other then sitting on the couch. Things do get better.
I am now almost 12 weeks, I'm working and I get my housework done, and laundry and although I still have those days where I feel like doing nothing, it's much easier to get motivated.
I don't know why this happens but a lot of girls have said the same thing. So your not alone. Dont worry.
Hope everything starts to look up soon. good luck.

I was, and at some times still am, that way. I was absolutely exhausted. Once I hit 13 weeks, the energy started to return, but I still tire very easily. I will be 15 weeks tomorrow and am carrying twins. I actually lost weight. I have slowly began to gain it back, but as of my last Dr. appt., I was still below where I started. Hope that helps!

I swear you just told my story! I haven't cleaned my house in a month. I'm 9 weeks and sooo sick. I stay on the couch 24/7. I'm having twins and I feel so depressed right now. If u ever wanna chat I'm here!

Been there and was just like that. But it will pass. There will come a time when the nesting instinct kicks in. My house has been a mess and I have slowly been working on it. There are good days and bad. You just don't dwell on the bad ones and know that good ones will be coming. I have made the realization that its not just me anymore - I'm responsible for this baby too (as well as my husband), and providing a good home has become important to me. Its a sort of motivation in itself. I'm in week 20 and I just got there a few weeks ago myself. Don't worry about it too much, you have plenty of time!

i was exactly the same way! it will get better i promise, just rest for now, you will get you motavation back.

I was so active before I got pregnant, went to gym several times a week but once my pregnancy started to progress, I was absolutely exhausted, every day, all day long. It made me cry at times, cause I used to love to work out and I felt disgusted with myself just sleeping most of the day...but after the first trimester, the energy came back together with the motivation. The early pregnancy hormones work as sedatives, so no wonder we were all sooooo tired! Good luck with everything.

Its so normal I was exhauted with all my pregnancies and this is baby 3. Even at 22 weeks I am still very tired but its better than the first trimester. You will get more energy as you progress further in the pregnancy.

We've all been there. I am just starting to get my energy back. I'm proud of myself for getting a load of laundry done or eating a healthy breakfast. Don't be hard on yourself for it. Take advantage of the sleep you can get now, cuz it will end soon (like when you have to sleep on your side and try to figure out how to not have your arm fall asleep every two minutes) It will pass...keep that in mind and let your body rest for now. If you want to talk ever I am almost always online. Congrats on your pregnancy

Exhaustion comes and goes....I was a mess for the first 3 months( sorry to discourage you..lol)then for a while I was feeling pretty good and now I'm exhausted again...I tell myself that things will get done when they get done, but I know how frusturating it is to have a mess around you..feel tired and wonder when you'll have the energy to do it...when you have a good day...take your time and do what u can...I also have depression which doesn't help the modivation part, but I've just been doing things slowly and bits here and there....hang in there...it's surely a rollor coaster ride!
