Sudden Exhaustion?

Question

Hi all,
This will sound odd and pretty vague, but I’ll give it a shot.  I’m almost 19 weeks along, and this afternoon very suddenly, I became very exhausted, to the point where it feels like I have a big illness coming on, if anyone can understand that specific feeling.  I don’t know anyone that is sick, and have literally been isolating myself to avoid the flu, and religiously wash my hands - so, I guess my question is, can this be hormonal?  Does anyone else feel like this with such a rapid onset?

Answer

It might actually be a growth spurt.
My doctor told me that funnily enough, babies get growth spurts even on the inside. It came up when at our first trimester screening my baby measured a week behind, but a week later at my regular checkup, baby measured a week ahead. 
Between the two I had a weekend where I wasn't able to do anything at all, I was eating like crazy then napped with my toddler and then I let daddy handle the evening bath because I was too exhausted to lift a finger. I was sleeping by the time my daughter got into bed, but it went away just as it came.

Answer

That’s how I felt right when I got the flu. It came out of nowhere. Praying yours is just random! Sleep if you can.

Answer

It could be onset from pregnancy or a illness I felt so tired last few days and today was diagnosed with flu B fatigue being one of the first symptoms next to a runny nose. Hopefully for you it’s just pregnancy related I also avoid public but someone came to work sick 🤦🏼‍♀️. Hopefully you get to feeling better 🤞🏼.
