Is this something I should bring up to my OB?

Question

I turn 16 weeks tomorrow and I feel constantly exhausted. I sleep 12 hours at night and still nap for about 2 hours during the day at least once. I have tried to skip naps but if I don’t, I will feel like a train hit me and have a bad headache. Even when I wake up from naps or long sleep, I don’t feel like I slept at all.

Answer

Ask them to test your iron levels. Mine were low until I started taking Iron pills then I felt great.

Answer

I think it’s normal but probably worth bringing up anyway, there may be something they can do to help. I felt absolutely exhausted in the early weeks and slept and napped the same as you, luckily it eased off though

Answer

This is me I sleep about 15 hours out of the whole day my doctors said extreme exhaustion could be a sign of low iron and sure enough my test came back extremely low iron levels
