Losing motivation at work

Every since I reached 5 weeks, I start to feel tired all the time. Sometimes so tired that I find it hard to focus and really need to get some sleep in the day. It makes it very hard for me to get any work done. Although I am working from home, but I’m also mindful not to disappear for too long. But it’s hard to go on. I have been taking naps everyday even on work days. Every Sunday, I really dread working the next day. I don’t wish to be a stay at home mum. But I find it so difficult to get work done, I feel guilty that I cannot perform at work. Any similar experiences?#1stimemom #workingmama

Hey mummy-to-be, don’t feel guilty! I also experienced e same till I reach mid 2nd trimester and I even dose off at work (in office) till people ard me spot it 🤭 I understand it is very hard to keep yourself awake even if with sour plum, sweets etc. So, just take a nap whenever your body wanna rest since you are WFH. Once you had your power nap then rush all your work at once.. You can do it and congrats to you!

Thank you Mummy X. That’s very comforting to hear. Thankfully I am still on WFH most days, so am really trying not to arrange too many meetings in the afternoon so that I can steal a nap in between.
