Any other seasoned Mama's feeling guilty?

Question

Hello all,
So I'm about 14 weeks pregnant. I'm constantly tired and still throwing up at least twice a day. I have two great kids my son 7 and daughter 10. And I'm feeling so guilty about not being the fun whimsical mommy lately. I usually have crafts planned, movie nights, family outings and other fun things to do for them all the time. But since December I just don't have the energy. I work part time and run the home. My hubby is an artist so he gets swept up in work most the time ( although he always helps when he can ) anywho, I'm just exhausted.
And tonight at dinner my kids expressed how I have been " upset and moody lately " that made me feel so crappy. I'm still running the home and doing all my normal mommy or daddy duties, but it seems like its not enough.
I'm feeling kinda blue. Anybody else have older kiddos that has dealt with this?

Answer

Same girl. I have a 17 month old and I love her so much and she’s so needy right now I feel so bad because I get cranky when she wants to be held all of the time but I have felt nothing but shitty since the day I found out I was pregnant. If it’s not morning sickness it’s horrible allergies or bad headaches. I feel like I’m depressed then I try to snap out of it and I do for like a day and then I feel so tired I go back to feeling the same! It sucks. I feel guilty for my 17 month old not having enough quality time with me and I feel guilty because I haven’t really felt like I’ve been nice to my baby inside my belly. :-/ and I try to talk to him but it doesn’t feel right I feel like I’m not giving him any love at all. 
Thankfully it’s just temporary!!!

Answer

Same, I have an 11 and 3 year old and I’ve had a short fuse lately.  I feel bad but all I want to do is lay down and rest.

Answer

Definitely. I have a 20mo old and I’ve been making it a goal to take him to a playground once a week cause at home I feel like I’m nothing but cranky and don’t wanna leave the couch.

Answer

Same. I have a 19 month old and have been a slug since December. I’ve been pretty sick and I figured I would be because I had bad morning sickness throughout my first pregnancy. I try not to let it bother me because my motto is just surviving at this point. The only good part tho is I’m in the Midwest and the weather is crappy so I’m glad I’m feeling my worst during crappy weather and not spring and summer.
