Don't panic, when you're pregnant all sorts of hormones take over and it can really get you down. Things do change over the course, so just stick with it.
Because you are concerned shows that you'll be a great Mum and your boyfriend sounds really good too.
Good luck!

Being that you are 16 weeks, you should be coming to the end of the "Blah" stage of the pregnancy, I know that it is difficult but you will get through it. Don't worry about having a job, you will always have a job now, you are a mother, that is the most important job in the world. Enjoy your boyfriend waiting on you and try to relax once this stage passes you will have energy abound. Good Luck!

I was going through the same thing when I was in my first trimester. Pregnancy changes a lot of things. One day, probably in a few weeks, your body is going to adjust to being pregnant, and the tiredness is just going to stop. That is what happened to me, and I was told that was typical. Strange, but once your second tri kicks in, you might have more energy, and be happier, than ever! Until then, though, try to remember everyone is doing the best they can; appreciate them and stay strong. It will all be worth it when you see your beautiful baby!

dont worry its a hormone thing and yes you will have the blues on and off, things will get better and you will learn to cope and you will be a good mum, most women suffer blues either during pregnancy or postnatal - its very natural, have a chat with your doctor or midwife next time you go for a check up, im sure they will reassure you
good luck

well congratulation´s, Sound´s like your worry to much about having a job, when your baby is born you´ll have a job ,a full time job, and I´m sure you´ll do it very well, most important thing at the moment is to look after yourself and enjoy yourself with your partner, plenty time to work , when your child start´s full time nursery . Merry Christmas

Ah this is normal during pregnancy it effects most women some not so much others alot, speak to your doctor they can help and just try breath and count to 10 when you feel bad or down. dont worry once your baby is born it'll all be worth it x

Don't worry.i had a baby 9months ago and remember this feeling.it passes at about 20weeks.your hormones are all over the place and you don't know whether you are coming or going but i promise you will soon enjoy your pregnancy and not feel like this for much longer

Aw babes... don't worry! Your body is being evil and is throwing your emotions and hormones EVERYWHERE. I heard pregnancy is just horrendous it just changes everything but it's all supposed to go back to normal after the birth! Just stick it out for the nine months and this will all go.
