Getting tired again - anyone else?

Question

I’m 22 weeks and noticing that I’m starting to feel the fatigue kick back in already, much like 1st trimester. Thought I would get some more “glory time” in this second trimester before started to get tired again. How’s everyone feeling right now, anyone else starting to slow down already? 
This is my second, I eat healthy and track my macros and work out 5-6 days/week so don’t feel like I should be this sluggish. I have gained about 25 lbs (somehow 🤦🏻‍♀️) but don’t feel heavier necessarily because I’m staying relatively active and healthy

Answer

Maybe you could try eating more iron rich foods? An iron deficiency can cause fatigue

Answer

Definitely could be your iron; that was the case for me. I was exhausted 24/7 and now I have to supplement with iron daily

Answer

Same thing happened with me, and it seems like the main causes were low thyroid levels and low iron. My iron levels are lower now than they were in the first trimester and I’ve been taking iron daily 😬 Definitely a good idea to check thyroid/iron with a simple blood test!

Answer

I’m 22 weeks and I’m so damn tired! I nap every single day I don’t even feel bad about it anymore. I get small bursts where I can get stuff done but otherwise I rest

Answer

I'm 25 weeks and it has started picking back up again for me as well. Unfortunately though I'm finding it harder for me to actually take a nap like I did in the first trimester. Some days are harder than others. I also am a special needs pre-k teacher so you know my life is already exhausting 😴

Answer

i’m 21 weeks with my first and here recently i’ve been dragging all day no matter how much i sleep. i eat how i should and stay hydrated but nothing seems to work. i am much more tired now than i was during first trimester with this.

Answer

Comes and goes for me. I have insomnia during this pregnancy so after a bad night I’m beat the next day. I’m working out every day and eating healthy and trying to avoid naps. I usually lay down in the afternoon when my kids are napping but I don’t fall asleep, I just lay on the bed and look through my phone and relax a little. I’m usually done and in the bed by 8 every night though, I just got a wall in the evenings. 25 weeks today.

Answer

Yeah, same here.. 22 weeks, I workout 60-90 min a day and eat super healthy but some days I’m just exhausted! Even going to the grocery store and one other errand feels like too much on some days. Haven’t been sleeping well either so that may be contributing..
