Hi everyone, I'm feeling pretty low and sorry for myself today and just wanted to know if what I'm experiencing is normal really.
I'm 35wk+5 and up until about 7-10 days ago I felt fantastic, had bags of energy, was able to socialise and function as normal and generally felt really well.
However, I feel like I've taken 10 steps back as every day now I just feel shattered and trying to find the energy to do anything is hard work!! Even just popping to the supermarket for a very quick shop drains me. I'm sleeping much more too. I've been unwell for a few days with a bad cold and a cough and I just feel so run down. I've recently had my iron levels re-checked and they are on the rise since starting treatment so I know it's not that. I was told my platelets were low though and that my white blood cell count was high and have to have repeat bloods in a few weeks to check them again.
I just don't feel like myself. I'm actually still in my dressing gown at 14.40pm and the thought of getting up, dressed and going out just makes me want to hide under my quilt.
Do I just feel like this because of how far into the pregnancy I am and it's normal to suddenly feel this knackered?
