Feeling down due to always feeling sick

Venting out!

I’ve been struggling a lot with my mental health during my entire pregnancy. I’m currently 34 weeks pregnant. I spent my entire pregnancy struggling with my health. I had at least 4 UTIS, 4 BVs, acid reflux day and night from the beginning of the third trimester. I sleep almost sitting down at this point. I can’t eat anything that causes acid reflux because I suffered the consequences later at night. I also try not to eat anything with milk because I take iron due to anemia and I’m also on antibiotics caused by UTI. My UTI is the most severe type meaning my Ob can’t treat it with the antibiotics that I need so I have to wait after pregnancy to receive proper treatment for it.

There are nights that I can’t sleep because I have to go to the bathroom so many times. I feel pain under my belly and it hurts to walk and even getting out of bed is hard. I have shortness of breathe and I feel tired all day. Sometimes I try to sleep during the day but I can’t sleep due to the burning sensation. I currently have diarrhea I think caused by antibiotics. I randomly cough and pee a little on my pants😔 while grocery shopping today. I also experience dizziness and fall asleep easily.

My body has gone through so many changes this year. I haven’t had a break, I’m mentally exhausted. I don’t know how to make myself feel better. I don’t know if all my symptoms are normal or I’m just having a difficult pregnancy. As far as the baby concerns, she is doing well.

I feel sad more of the time, ugly due to current weight and I just feel bad for all the terrible symptoms I’ve experienced. 😔

I need some hope. Thanks for reading!
