I'm sorry I don't have answers on how to make it better but I do know exactly how you feel. I'm 16 weeks...still sick almost daily, tired and seems even more irritable and crazy. Let me know if you find any solutions...especially to the irritable crazy part. Best of luck.

i didnt start sleeping alot till 2nd tri this preg

Luckily I've mostly felt happy (which is a great change from depressions!), so I haven't had to deal with that much. When I do crazy pregnant things, I just kind of make myself laugh it off. It really helps taht my husband is really understanding and supportive on that one. As for being tired, I sleep whenever i can still. I'm not working, so that helps a lot. I haven't had too much sickness, but a ton of aches and pains.

For the most part I've just had to tell myself that its ok to slow down. I take my time with things and it helps with the fatigue and pain. Also, even though it may take awhile, this too shall pass, and there'll be a wonderful baby at the end!

oh yeah, I'm at 18 weeks and haven't noticed a huge difference in how tired I am, but I feel a little more energy in spite of being tired, if that makes any sense. *L*

Remember, those books and sites all state what is common, but that doesn't mean it's common for everyone. We all go through this differently. My sister threw up every single day of her first pregnancy, then never once threw up during her second. So it can be different even for the same woman.

I try to relax. I find I feel better when I get some exercise (even if it's just walking to the store to buy chocolate ice cream). I try to laugh at my emotional freakouts and keep myself around funny people. That's what works for me.

Good luck!

Zink and Bio Sileneum is good for depression. Find out if its safe during pregnancy. Walking helps to reduce or release tension a brisk walk. Cutting out refined sugar this can cause emotional instabililty. I listen to relaxaton tapes by LOUISE.LHAY WWWW.LOUISE.LHAY.COM I have long relaxing baths. I write things out which really bother me and burn the letter in the garden and feel better afterwards. I make passionate love this helps release tension. I clean the house this helps.

It usually passes i am now 21 weeks and neardly exsploaded at the weekend. I thought my brother and son had gone left but they went shop to solve a problem which i was angry about. I didn't think i diserved it. Said sorry and felt bad. Accept that this his how you are feeling and that this is perfectly normal for you at the moment.

I'm afraid to tell you that I am a "psycho crazy" person for pretty much the whole 9 months, but it's the truth!! Long walks outside and getting PLENTY of sleep help some. It's all worth it in the end! I don't know if you are sick, too, but that did pretty much and for me at 20 weeks.
