[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Op here.

I rally every single morning when I get myself out of bed, shower, and go to work - work all day, despite wanting to run home and lie down in bed.

I’m taking diclegis, pregnancy pops, eating crackers. The nausea is still there. It’s always looming.

You bet I would much rather be at home sick than sick on vacation. My own bed and home versus a plane with 100+ strangers witnessing me getting sick? Yeah, no thanks. Plus germs.

Weve already talked to the couple and told them I may not be able to go. I don’t care if DH goes or not, at this point I really don’t feel like taking a trans Atlantic flight and schlepping myself all over the UK for 2 weeks.

Our losses would be minimal, the flight and 3 nights of hotel is what we’ve already paid for. We may be able to get flight credit and could go later in the pregnancy if I feel better. [/quote]

:roll: First time moms and first pregnancies always think their lives are *so so* hard and *so so * exhausting.  Every single day for them is so much harder, more tiring, exhausting, strenuous than anyone else's.  Then they have the kid, and it's so much more tiring... Just wait a year.  Then you'll actually understand being tired.  Then wait another year.  Then get pregnant again, and be pregnant with a kid to take care of.  Then you'll realize how good you feel right now.  This is a walk in the darn park, hon.  [/quote]

+1. Or in my case, imagine having two little ones and being pregnant with a third... I did not even have time to rest in the evening or weekend... my most restful days were my work days..[/quote]

The mommy martyrs on this thread are disgusting. Break out all the violins....[/quote]

You are missing the point. We all know that being pregnant is not a walk in the park and I think the women that say they loved being pregnant are lying. I also think that OP needs to go and modify her trip according to what she is able/feels like doing. It never occurred to me to cancel a trip because I was not feeling great[/quote]

I didn't miss any point. OP has decided she feels bad enough not to enjoy her planned trip. Why should she have to martyr herself and suck it up just because others have three kids and they did it, and blah blah blah. For her she IS "so so exhausted." Who are you all to tell she's essentially not? Who cares that you didn't have time to rest on the weekends. You didn't have a choice because you had other kids. OP has a choice. This is JUST a vacation. [/quote]
