I'm already having issues sleeping.
I ended up getting about an hour of sleep last night and I tossed and turned constantly. Couldn't get comfortable, had to pee, was thirsty, my back hurt and on and on. I'm worried what it will be like when I get bigger, I didn't think I'd be having this much trouble yet.
My snoogle helps me fall asleep, but I end up either rolling around and knocking it off the bed or getting uncomfortable staying in one position. My lower back is just screaming at me lately.
I feel terrible calling in for the third time in a month, like I'm really not being totally reliable for them. I know I'm only on a pretty part time, pretty unimportant shift- but I don't think it reflects well on me.
How much longer am I going to be able to do this before I just want to lay on the couch all day?
I just want to sleep and sleep, all day.

Please be happy knowing you have the option to just call in. I worked every single day until I gave birth, no matter how terrible I felt.
And, your job should somewhat understand what you're going through. Somehwere, there is a woman who's been pregnant at least once and remembers the side effects (other than a growing belly). Hang in there. Wish I was there to do more for you. *hug*
The farther along you get into your second trimester, the less you'll feel like dying.
And then the 3rd trimester hits...
I'm really impressed that you're still working. I gave up about 6 weeks in. So don't feel bad for calling in a few times. You're growing a flippin' human being, for God's sake.
I should have said, "I *had* to work every single day until I gave birth, no matter how terrible I felt." The Navy is comprised of quite a bit amount of pregnant females; these are mostly females who find out they're going on a deployment and don't want to leave home for six to nine months. So, they get themselves pregnant.
