Is it normal to feel this tierd at this stage?. I have pains in my lower abdomen if walking and generally am struggling to do anything for more than an hour at a time. I have a full week left of work including two long ish drives to other offices in the week (2 hrs each way). I'm starting to panic a bit about coping.
I did have a water infection and just finished antibiotics so it isn't that i don't think. I did go away last week and probbaly did to much exercise while sightseeing but today I'm.stugglign to do the food shopping.
Is this normal ?

At your stage of pregnancy, absolutely. I think I had stopped driving by that stage with ds1, it was too sore.
I'm 20 weeks now with dc2 and I am completely exhausted, I think the heat is not helping though. X

Yes, I was exhausted at that stage too. All I wanted to do was sleep or just lay down. I'm struggling to even walk at the minute, it hurts that bad. Can't even do the housework anymore. Hopefully you will get your energy levels back but for me I haven't. Your body is going through a lot, exhaustion is to be expected. Just try and take it easy. All you can do is your best!

Thanks for the replies. I'm struggling to nap as if I lie down I get heartburn or feel sick.
Love my bump but he needs to come soon. Can't imagine another month of this!

Absolutely normal! I'm 35 weeks and should have had another 3 weeks at work, but SPD was so bad that I used annual leave and left at 32 weeks. It's so bad now that I struggle just walking around the shops, and have to sit down often. When I'm home, I have to do housework in spurts otherwise I'm exhausted and need a nap!
