How do people do it? I feel like such a failure. I'm completely wiped by around 3 PM and still have 2 hours to go.
I know there are those out there who work FT during pregnancy but honestly my brain isn't functioning the way it used to.
Really hoping to cut my hours down soon.

It's hard. Your body screams for rest but you need to go go go..

It's extremely hard.
I've been working FT since I graduated 3 years and 2 pregnancies ago, between pregnancy and postpartum it's probably been like a year in total with a fully functional brain lol
All I can say is I've been very lucky to have extremely understanding employers. But just some validation for you that is is very very hard. Cut yourself some slack wherever possible

That sounds really hard! We're really not meant to do it all.

During my first pregnancy, I was out of the house working from 8-4:30 and then again from 7-10. It was horrible and I had a form of HG but I didn’t have a choice, I was putting my husband through medical school.
