Feeling down

Jennie

Hi all, I'm 35 and this is my first pregnancy, I've been trying since I was 18 but suffer with endometriosis so it's been a rollercoaster to say the least. The last 8 months have been awful for me endo wise! I've had multiple hospital admissions and so much time off work and then 2 weeks after my last admission I fell pregnant. I'm 12 weeks now and I'm struggling. I've had the expected symptoms, morning sickness, fatigue etc but it's got to the point that I'm completely overwhelmed and can't bring myself to get up in the mornings. I've struggled to sleep for around 6 months now and only get around 3-4 hours a night in average. Every day I feel more and more exhausted and I'm a nervous wreck! I'm terrified to go to work and I have no idea why, but each day I'm there I get more and more down to the point that the only resolution I can see is staying off sick until I start mat leave. Has anyone else felt like this and managed to overcome it? Did the GP help at all?
