15 weeks feel dreadful

[coffeeandjuice]

I can't remember this in my last pregnancies but I'm 15 weeks and I feel awful.

I'd be quite happy to sleep all weekend, picking anything up just feels so heavy and all my energy is sapped. I thought this was meant to be the easy trimester.... is this normal?

I'm 14 weeks and feel exactly the same! I don't really remember feeling like this last time round but then I suppose back then I didn't also have a toddler to look after at the same time!

Honestly, I can't even muster the energy to put my laundry away.

I did wonder whether I might be a bit anaemic, but hard to know. Hope you feel better soon!!

I'm 13 weeks and literally lying under my duvet on top of a pile of laundry because I'm too tired to move it

Thanks. I'm seeing the midwife tomorrow for my 16 weeks so maybe a blood test will reveal something. It's probably because it's 3rd baby and I don't have the weekend to rest like before.

I’m nearly 14 weeks and feel exhausted and keep getting very dizzy. I’m sure with my previous pregnancy I felt a lot better by this stage.
Hope you feel better soon

I’m at the end of my 3rd pregnancy and it’s definitely been the hardest one in a number of ways, felt tired and awful for a lot longer (no glowing second trimester and straight from feeling tired and sick all the time to feeling huge and uncomfortable). Sorry that’s probably not very reassuring but hopefully it won’t be the same for you. I think not getting much chance to rest because of other children and being that little bit older (and I fitter) myself makes a big difference too

Same here! I was told that 2nd trimester would be the best one, but I've just carried symptoms over!

I felt awful until 17 weeks during my first pregnancy then within a few days felt so much better. I definitely read there was a reason why you feel better around that time but can’t now find it. Hopefully you’ll all feel better soon.
