I feel so freaking useless these days. The same thing is happening this pregnancy that happened with my first. Around 28 weeks my body just gave up. Like I cannot handle much physical activity without pain from hell and weakness. I'm a cashier at a truck stop and that doesn't require much physical activity. Mostly just being on my feet for hours. But never the less I end up so sore that once I finally sit down I can't really get back up. If I do it's a struggle and I'm grunting trough it just go get up and pee. Last night I had to sweep at work and just sweeping had me shaking like I over exerted myself. I hate feeling like this. I hate being useless. I hate this pain. It takes me a whole 24 hours to recover from the pain of being at work. My feet and hips and back kill me. I'm ready to quit. I put in my notice for February. But I have to stick it out till then or I could lose my car
I hope all goes well for you. God bless you hun. It's good that you are doing what is healthier for you and baby's lifestyle.
@anababe my job doesn't offer paid leave. But I also hate my job and if I have to get a job after the baby is born i will but not there. So I just decided to quit. I have to work to make my car payments until I get my tax return and have enough to pay it off.
Girl I feel you, I have fibromyalgia so I'm in pain regardless, even more so that I'm pregnant..just gotta do what you can and relax when you have the opportunity..its tough but just gotta stay positive
