Pregnant & Tired

[YellowSunflower25]

I used to pop pills a few years ago. Not heavy but not lightly either. I’m going through a lot with my spouse and I really wish I could just take a few pills to be numb. I can’t because I’m pregnant. Just getting really tired of it all.

Hi YellowSunflower25, I'm glad you are staying safe for baby's sake.

Popping a pill has such a short time effect before you need another and

another to just become numb to the situation. Instead, when it is a

constant situational issue , it is much better and healthier for you to

find a method that will work in calming down both your mind and body.

When you find yourself about to go through a lot with your spouse, avoid

a confrontation and just quietly walk away. Find yourself a quiet place where

you can gather your thoughts and start to deep breathe and relax. Getting upset

only brings about more stress related physical symptoms which you do not need

right now. It is very wearing in dealing with anxiety. Who needs it... xx

Hi YellowSunflower25 !

I went to two pregnancies so I can relate to the frustration and the spouse issues !

We think all the changes are happing just with us but the “ dad’s” are also freaking out !

As Agora1 said , I am glad you are staying safe ! If you need to talk to someone about it , please do ! Your doctor can help you out with any anxiety or depression issues.

I had depression with my second pregnancy starting at 5 months so I know how hard it is.

Good luck !! Wishing you a health and peaceful pregnancy ! When are you due ?
