Extremely exhausted

[Sarah1087]

Hi

I'm only 24 weeks and in the last week I've noticed my motivation has disappeared apart from going to work I don't want to do nothing, it's been my day off today and all I've done is sleep on and off I don't even have energy to take my dog on a little walk 💤 I used to suffer with very low vitamin D and had to take supplements.
I had my bloods taken when I was around 5 weeks and everything came back normal range.
So I'm wondering can I take an extra iron supplement as well as my prenatal vitamins. And is 2 coffees ok to have a day ? I usually have 1.

Seeing midwife weds but thought I'd ask before

I’ve been like this, 25 weeks with my second. I’m taking spatone for iron and yes two coffees is fine!

I don't have any answers, I felt extremely exhausted for my pregnancy. I didn't find out I was pregnant until 2 months in and prior to that I thought something was seriously wrong with me because I was so exhausted. My blood tests were all normal.. it was just a case of carrying on until I reached the end and then...well and then I had a baby who never slept so I was permanently exhausted for another 2 years until that settled down.

No real wisdom but a lot of sympathy... I'm 20 weeks and absolutely knackered (though less so than in 1st trimester).

Lots of sympathy for you!! We'll get through it and think it's all worth it I'm sure!!
