Is anyone else struggling a lot with just general life at the moment? I’m 26 weeks and I go back to uni next week and I’m so worried about how I’ll cope. I also work full time and I’m struggling to get through the days! I feel like one off word from someone and I’ll just cry my eyes out! I don’t even want to meet friends at the moment I feel like I have no energy ☹️
I’m usually a really well organised and pragmatic person but I just can’t seem to keep it together at the moment!
Just want to know if I’m going crazy or if anyone else feels the same. Any tips on feeling better would be amazing too♥️

No, you're not going crazy. I'm exactly the same. Feel like my mental health has taken a massive downturn recently. Really struggling with everything. Thankfully we've got a holiday coming up and I'm off work until the end of September so hoping I'll feel better after that.

Pregnancy is tough! Have you had your iron levels checked recently? I definitely feel much worse when they drop…
no I haven’t, do I just ring the gp and ask for it?
ah that sounds like a good plan. I haven’t got any holiday left to use as I’m using my last 2 weeks to put before my maternity starts on 27th November. Hope you feel better soon x

You can ask your GP or your midwife. When is your next midwife appointment? If it’s a while away then it would be worth contacting them and telling them you are struggling with your energy. Good luck! It’s really hard at times I know

Your not going crazy! You are doing a lot especially going to uni
Plus working full time good on you sis! But please rest as much as you can and do the bare minimum untill you meet your baby ;)
