Pregnancy Info HOME

Oh please assumes too much. Jbear is right, there are two issues. I also was very tired in the first trimester. I also suffered a m/c before my current pregnancy and COULD NOT lift a pot of potatoes, I was on bed rest for the 13-16 week of our pregnancy to protect our baby and control bleeding. It worked and I am now 33 weeks. Martin, I am sorry for the negative posts on here, and there is nothing wrong with you being frustrated at these new changes. Please remember they are temporary and her energy level will return after the first trimester. To put it in perspective, imagine the worst stomache flu you ever had, where you physically had nothing to give even when you wanted to, where everything made you sick to your stomach whether you puked or not, and you just wanted to curl up and make the bad feeling go away.. the first trimester is like that. Some have different levels of tolerance, like oh please, and can handle the sickness and others, like your wife, cant. It doesn't make one a superhero, and the other a 'lazy, mushy woman'. In the darkest days, please remember that this pregnancy is but a blink of an eye in the span of your life, and ends with your child being born. The way you treat your wife during this difficult time will forever influence the way she views you. I wish you and your new family the best.
