32 weeks - anyone else beyond shattered

[bearface1983]

Hi everyone.

Any other 32 week mummies feeling the tiredness? I am so exhausted I can barely lift my head!! I can only assume we are having a growth spurt :)

Yes me! 32 weeks also, but was prescribed iron a week ago as I'm Anaemic so hoping that helps deal with some of the tiredness once that's sorted. My house is a tip and my kids are basically raising themselves at the moment because I don't have the energy to be a fun mummy for them!

I don't think the heat is helping either! Roll on sept!

Tired, stressed and not sleeping!
Just been moved into temporary accommodation 40 miles away from family.. I’m not sleeping at night because it’s too hot and I’m stressed .. & I’ve been getting period pains and bump is really dropped today :(

I had my baby two weeks ago , if it's any help I'm less tierd now!! I hated last month of pregnancy in the heat. Ice Lolly's and naps are way forward

It must be a 32 week thing :) I was told at my app yesterday to eat more spinach- she said my iron was just borderline but that is based on week 28 bloods. She said eat more meet and dairy but I cannot stomach it!!

Me too! 30 weeks and it's suddenly started really hitting me hip and pelvis pain has well and truly kicked in and I am shattered all the time - it doesn't help I have a very active 16 month old to run around after and he still wakes multiple times a night. Truly feel like the worst Mum ever at the moment as we are not doing a great deal .
Hoping baby comes at the earlier end of full term as not sure I can deal with another 12 weeks!

32+2 here and I am tired too but mainly because baby seems to think midnight = disco time... Pregnacare vitamins seem to have helped fix my pre-existing anaemia / tiredness and as baby is clearly thieving all my own reserves its (so far) kept levels in check in normal range.

It’s the heat that’s killing me most, constantly roasting and just want to cool down . I’d sit in a cold bath but not entirely sure I’d be able to get back out !

@RainRainGoAwayy (the irony of your username in current heatwave lol!) you and anyone else in your shoes are a hero to be dealing with being 30+ wks pregnant AND with other wee ones in my book. I’m struggling and I don’t have any extra childcare responsibility on top!

I feel your pain!! 32 + 2 and today I thought I would have half hour nap as my little boy was at pre school....3 hours later I woke up!!! Tomorrow I have a chilled day in garden with my son planned as so tired. Luckily he is attending pre school until mid August so I know i have some relax time up until then. Housework and chores have been left this week- I've got day to myself Saturday as husband taking son on a daytrip so that will give me a whole day to try and achieve something haha.

Think we must be having massive growth spurt as everyone has said over last week how big my bump has suddenly got!
