Anybody else??

Question

I’m 27 weeks and a few days and I have noticed that lately I can barely get through my workday. I’m so exhausted all the time but I’m getting almost no sleep because I’m so uncomfortable. I’m also fighting a nasty cough during all of this. So that doesn’t help. I’m taking medicine for the cough so hopefully that goes away soon. I work on my feet all day long and I have almost no time to sit down and relax. How are you ladies coping with being so tired?!?

Answer

Yes I’m physically tired but then also my brain gets so tired by the end of the workday, I can’t even think clear enough to get anything done!!

Answer

It's hard, especially with getting no help with household chores.  I really just try to keep up with everything so it doesn't get out of hand.  And at work I just don't push myself, I do my job for sure but there is no overachieving going on over here😂 I feel bad about it too but I haven't been cooking like I use to. I love cooking but too much time! I just need to lie down and rest, even if it's hard to sleep at least I'm resting.

Answer

A little off topic but what meds are you taking? I have had this nasty dry cough for two weeks now and idk what to do about it

Answer

Sleeping when I get in and trying to disguise the red tinge to the whites of my eyes. I try not to blink too much either, or I’d fall asleep! 😂

Answer

I cut back on my work hours. I'm a hairstylist so standing all day with barely a break, it was too much. I ended up swelling so bad and had to go to L&D. I already feel better working shorter shifts and get more time ro rest.

Answer

Yup!! And the work girls are noticing too. They are being fab, making sure I sit down abd take it easy in the afternoon, although that makes me feel worse and I completely lose my get-up-and-go. My other half has struggled to understand why I'm so tired and lazy after work, but he let me nap Friday when I got in and has brought me a morning cup of tea in bed this weekend. 😍

Answer

I was stupid tired. Had blood work done for glucose testing and found out I’m anemic.

Answer

Same. I’m 24w5d. When I get home my back is hurting so bad... and I feel exhausted. It gets worse and worse as the weeks go. I don’t know how I’m going to get through these last months of work.
