I know it's so tough with this condition but you have to stay strong. Your loved ones will totally understand. I feel fatigued all the time but I have to live my life. You should do only what you are capable off

I have relapsing remitting MS and there are days when my energy level is low also and you are not a bad mother 

I wake up tired!! your not a bad mum it's not your fault it's part of your condition. I have kids and they can be tiring as well take each day as it comes 

You are not a bad mum, just a mum with ms, bit of a difference. If you explain, gently, that if they will let mummy lie down for half an hour, then mummy will be able to take them to the park, go swimming etc., whatever floats your boat, it's amazing her quickly kids learn and it soon becomes 'normal' for them to be a little more understanding/ caring without it adversely affecting their childhood🥊🤞👂😜

Feeling Fatigued and tired is part and parcel of my life now, not always but more often than not.



@canick, the fatigue, to me, is the worst symptom of MS. It’s a fatigue worse than can be described to those who aren’t lucky enough to experience it 🤗. I have ways to cope with spasm, pain, balance issues, but not fatigue. Hang in there. With a smile, a tired smile, but a smile none the less. 

I have been drinking Kambucha and taking B12 vitamin, it has helped me. My nurse told me to rest if I can before playing with my kids. It's hard but I  just feel ilkw I need to keep moving forward. 


Yup happens a lot with me too ..... am a single mum with 3 kids and sometimes just get floored by tiredness and sleep for 3-4 hours in the afternoon. 
It’s really hard lucky mine are a bit older youngest is 12 but sometimes I feel like this too as I have no energy at all 

It turned out that my med put my blood count at a critical low. I guess this is why I was so tired. Don’t get me wrong, I am still tired, just not that tired lol. 

Yep, fatigued pretty much all the time. I do my best to do a few light chores each day and do my physio every day, but having been bed ridden for 9 weeks out of 13 due to torn ligaments in my back, then a bad case of vertigo followed by a 6 day cluster migraine, I have about as much strength and energy as a wet paper bag. You're not a bad Mum, but you are also not Superwoman. How old are your kids? are they old enough to be able to understand what ms is etc. You can only do your best but try not to overdo it or you will end up buggering yourself up x

I know the feeling hun. I have an almost 4 year old and some days I feel like the worst mother on the planet. The exhaustion has been awful for me for the last 6 months. The good days I try to take advantage the best I can. That’s all we can do. My 4 year old likes to argue with me about everything and anything. It’s a stage, I know but some days I feel so defeated. Just always remind your kids that you love them to pieces. Hugs and kisses are a must. Hope things get better for you. 

Does everyone get dead tired for days at a time or is that just me. I feel like the worse mother ever when I’m like this.
