Hiya,

I'm 8 weeks 3 days and i'm so bloody tired :( Please tell me it gets better in second trimester? The last 3 weeks i've been waking up ever 2 hours needing to pee and only getting about 5/6 hours in total. My body must have finally packed in last night as i slept for 11 hours straight... woke up thinking this would be the best day ever after all that sleep... but nope, tired again after a few hours 😂

It may get better for you but may not I've been drained// Exhausted since early pregnancy up until around 29 weeks when I finally got iron tablets as I'm anaemic. Not saying it's the same for yourself or course you may get bags of energy during your 2nd trimester just sleep when you can/want x

@Boymummy3 Did it come back with your bloods that you were anemic? I've been wondering if i might be low in iron as i've been craving red meat x

I'm also 8+3 and I feel your pain! I am trying to drink loads in the mornings and then not much in the evenings to try to avoid waking in the night. If I can manage to sleep through I feel better. Wish I could just curl up in bed for the rest of the winter :-/
