Anything to help??

Question

I feel drained and exhausted. I’m 32+2 along. This is my first pregnancy. I’m an online college student too. Now doing courses makes me more drained. I’ve been drinking 3 bottles of water a day and I’ve felt like this since yesterday. My next doc appt is on Thursday, 10/17.

Answer

You may be anemic. I’m 29 weeks and I feel winded all the time, turns out I’m anemic and need extra iron in addition to my prenatal.

Answer

The third trimester is just as exhausting as the first. Hang in there ❤️❤️ it’s beginning to catch up to me as well. I’ve been drinking a cup of hot tea in the afternoon to get me to bedtime.

Answer

Definitely check your iron levels! Everyone kept telling me it was normal to be so tired and I went in and my levels were at a 13, anemic is an 11. Ive been taking extra iron supplements on top of my prenatals adding vitamin C (helps with iron absorption). I feel so much better and can finally make it through the day without feeling like a tired sloth!
