Am I the only one?!?

Question

Who is always TIRED?!? I get a good 9 hours of sleep at night, sometimes more. My husband works nights so usually I'll take a nap with him when he gets home (usually an hour to two hours) but still by about 7 at night, I'm exhausted!! I do not work, and I'm 28 weeks tomorrow. I was diagnosed anemic at my glucose test but have been on iron supplements for about 2 weeks now so I expected to get some energy back after being on the iron but I haven't....I'm still tired! I feel like I'm in my first trimester all over again!!! 😭

Answer

I'm 26 weeks pregnant. I get between 5-6 hours of sleep every night. I usually wake up 2-3 times a night either to pee or because my princess is kicking so much. I wish I could sleep longer :/

Answer

I just posted about this same exact thing! I am 29+ 6 weeks and on iron now and I can't keep my eyes open. I can't sleep all day. I have an 8 year old and I feel so lazy staying in bed all day long!! I don't know what to do

Answer

I was tired throughout my whole 2nd trimester. I FINALLY got a burst of energy around 26 weeks (29 today). I was only working part-time, so I slept a lot on my off days, but now I'm working full-time, so I'm exhausted now because I'm working twice as many days now.

Answer

I'm 29 weeks & exhausted ALL the time no matter how much sleep I get :/

Answer

I'm downright exhausted anymore. I do online shooling and stay home with my toddler and it's taking everything in me to get my work done and keep the house clean while taking care of him. I forget often that I'm also pregnant and that its weighing me down too. Just all around tiring.

Answer

I'm 28 weeks and have been catching midday naps. After my glucose test I was also put on iron supplements. I'm hoping I get my energy back because there's still so much to get done!

Answer

I am🙋🏻! I felt pretty good my second trimester, but at about 26 weeks I started getting more and more tired. I don't even want to get up. I go to work, and as soon as I get home I take of my clothes and jump in bed. I don't wanna move. Ever. And I'm only at the beginning of my third trimester! I am also anemic, have low blood pressure, low blood sugar, low Vit D. I take extra supplements, but baby is sucking the life right outta me.

Answer

You're not alone. I'm 27 weeks and exhausted 10 min after I wake up. I nap during the day sometimes and exercise but I generally feel low on energy. Doc says baby is in a rapid growth stage so I guess that's sucking up all the energy. Hang in there!

Answer

I didn't even really see a significant dip in my energy during the first trimester - maybe a little sluggish but overall, I didn't nap or do anything different.  now, suddenly in the 3rd tri, I swear I could go to sleep any ol time.  I'm so so so tired. I sat down at my desk at work and stared shuffling papers and started feeling my eyes close - had to take a lap so I wouldn't fall asleep.  Never been so tired!
