Sooooo friggin tired!!!!

[cherryontopp]

Just need a rant.

Im 13 weeks tomorrow with first baby and Jesus, I've never been so tired in all my life!

Just moved house and I'm working 2 jobs. Dp thinks im exaggerating because im "not even big yet".

There's washing in the washing machine that needs putting out and thought of doing it makes me want to curl up in a ball and bawl my eyes out.

Anyone else fucking nackered?

@thingy I was about 20 weeks before I started to feel like myself again, if that makes you feel any better. No massive burst of energy but didn't feel so obscenely tired all the time. No 12 week wonderful here. I'm now 28 weeks and haven't done a huge amount today but very tired. I think we're meant to be tired until baby is 18!

@kel1234 I think we would all live to carry on as normal. I was going to drink a nutri bullet everyday, walk to and from work, cook everything from scratch and go to free pregnancy swimming sessions but I got hyperemesis at 5/6 weeks and have lost 20lb in this pregnancy. If I do anything vaguely active, I feel short of breath and exhausted and then feel sick, then I can't do anything for the next day or so. So yes, I guess I am one of those pregnant women with their feet up.

For me that first trimester tiredness really hit me hard. I was in bed by 8pm. Every night. It was a completely different kind of tiredness than I had ever felt. Even now with an 8month old that still feeds every three hours day and night I wouldn't swap it for that first trimester tiredness. But it did lift by around week 16.

No. Your body is just working hard and needs the sleep. Sleep if you can!

I was a frequent gym goer before pregnancy and I was told that if I could force myself to the gym it would somehow help with the tiredness but between that and the sickness I didn't make it there until 16 weeks so I don't know if it actually would have helped.

I couldn't think of anything worse at the moment than going to the gym. Even walking for long periods of time makes my stomach and legs ache like mad. I'm getting on with it but god its hard. Never known I could feel this tired x
