How the heck do you get through your work day?!

Question

I sit at a desk all day, but wow I’m so tired I can barely keep my eyes open. I try to get up as much as I can and I drink plenty of water and eat snacks. I have anemia and gestational diabetes and I am 32 weeks. I just cannot keep my eyes open. 
Suggestions? Besides the obvious lol

Answer

Coffee.

Answer

I sit at a desk whole day and on my 15 I take a nap. Snacking helps me as well. I’ve never been so tired in my entire life before I sometimes fall asleep at my desk and had a whole dream of two. Lol, maybe it’s because I’m anemic.

Answer

I sit at a desk all day too and people think oh you have it easy. But really I experience such soreness sitting here in one position all day!!!! Sometimes I get so caught up in work that I don’t stand up for 2 hours and when I do I’m in so much pain!!!!

Answer

I find that constant snacking really helps or something to sip like tea. Take your iron regularly. I've stopped taking mine consistently because it made me sick once and I definitely notice!

Answer

I would be dead without caffeine. I approach the safe limit every day or I suffer lol me and baby are hooked

Answer

Same here.  I have 24 days left of work and I’m officially on maternity leave. Currently almost 31w and the tiredness is hitting me hard as well as the soreness. Really getting uncomfortable.

Answer

I went off work around 22 weeks. Couldn’t manage the GD, and stress and dangerous work environment (work w special needs, many of whom have severe aggression). My BP was sky high. Since going off it’s come way down and I’m still exhausted most days. Everyone should have a pregnancy leave before baby comes and then a full maternity leave.

Answer

I been struggling with work since first trimester!
Idk how I get by but I mostly hide in the bathroom lol 
I plan on leaving at 36 weeks, I work retail and I physically can’t no more

Answer

I am struggling with this too. 31 weeks hit me like a ton of bricks and this week im sore all over. I dont want to walk anymore. I might bring my exercise ball in to keep my jips loose.
