13.2 weeks and ready to be done already

Brittany

It’s crazy! I’m pregnant with my 5th child, and before I got pregnant I was doing weight watchers, so I typically ate a good amount of protein mixed with carbs and fats and what not. Still enjoyed snacks every now and then but mostly making healthier substitutes (Example: Yasso bars instead of ice cream) and had lost 80 pounds in the past two years with the new lifetsyle. Since getting pregnant I have had incredible food adversions. Everything I eat sounds disgusting and the only things I could keep down my first trimester was bagels, pb toast, rice etc. I have gained 17 pounds so far and I am only 13.2 weeks! Although I do notice that in all my pregnancies I tend to gain a significant amount of weight in the beginning of my pregnancy, I am struggling because I know I am not eating enough. Today I literally had a bite of a muffin, 10 grapes, a quesadilla from Taco Bell, (super salty I never eat these!) 2 hard boiled eggs and a Greek yogurt. I don’t even know what to do anymore. 😭 I am so use to eating based off of what sounds good and I didn’t realize this until now, but this isn’t working in my favor.

The other issues I’ve had this pregnancy is my blood pressure hopping around. Never had blood pressure issues however seems like I’m extremely weak, I can’t even walk a super small distance without my heart starting to race which leads to my pulse being super fast and then symptoms come from there. (Imstarting to wonder if it’s due to my poor eating)

All I’m now is im ready to be done being pregnant. I feel like I’m dying everyday and it scares me that my body won’t be strong enough to get through labor. Or that illhave a damn heart attack!

Currently dealing with:

1.) Inflammed airways- haven’t had asthma isusesin years and it has return severely enough for me to take steroids.

2.) heart always racing

3.) Weak —>

4.) Food Adversions to almost everything there is leading me to not ever know what to eat leading me to not eat.

5.) Constant On Edge feeling

I just want to be done feeling this way 😭😭😭😭
