My first pregnancy at about six weeks I was put on bed rest and stayed on it for two months(pregnant with triplets), I could only make it from bed to bathroom, luckily it was during the summer when I don't work. I don't know yet, but have the signs of pregnancy again and am wondering if there is anything I can do to make it so I can at least still work? (miscarried at 14 1/2 weeks)
Before I was on promethegan, which helped the nausea not the exhaustion, they then put me on reglan but i started having crazy thoughts and went back to promethegan. Still I had no energy to do anything....anyone out there can help?

Dont take nausea pills! Everyone I know who misscarried was on them. Gingerelle in the morning works even though it may not be the healthiest. Take the prenatal vitamin at night. Eat what you want to eat. If you want some skittles, eat some skittles. ALSO, swallowing motions help nausea so eating candies that you have to suck on works the best. Being tired is something you just learn to manage. I have a 3 year old, I`m in school and pregnant. You can imagine that there isn`t much time for sleep. Also it;s constant work with a 3 yr old. I go for walks and I try to keep myself occupied to stay alert. I drink decaffinated coffee. It`s just a matter of will power. You need to get use to it if your having a baby. `Your more tired with a new born trust me.
