Tiredness getting worse

I'm 12 weeks today and in the last few days it feels like the tiredness and nausea is getting worse! I'm tired even more of the time now and the nausea feels like it's now always there instead of just a bit in the morning or just in the evening.
I didn't get up until 10 this morning and then napped on/off between 3-5 and I'm now ready for bed again. I'm also getting more headaches and I think migraines (had sudden erge to be sick earlier followed by loss of vision had to wear my sunglasses for an hour) 😎

Please someone say this will get better soon 😭

Maybe in about 5 or 6 years... Grin

In all seriousness, have you had your bloods done yet to check iron levels?

It'll get better overnight in about 5 days! You won't believe it. First trimester is the most exhausted you'll ever feel in your whole life (unless you have a second pregnancy and then you're minding your first kid whilst being that exhausted).

All going well, you'll be full of energy for the next 3 months then tiredness will start to creep in again but not to the same extent.

Ahh I'm 16 weeks and still have a decent nap in the daytime. Waiting for that second trimester glow/energy boost.

Hope you start to feel better soon.

My eldest is 29 and I'm still tired!!

CandyLeBonBon · 02/02/2021 22:14

19 not 29. Same difference!

Im 17 +3 and absolutely wrecked tired all the time. Waiting for the 2nd trimester burst of energy here too!

The good news is that it will get better, I found myself having a lot more energy in the second trimester, the bad news is that once you hit the third trimester you’re back to square one. I get the occasional bursts of energy but I’m so exhausted majority of the time, I don’t wake up before 11 and have to fit a nap in during the afternoon

I had headaches around the 12 week mark for a week or so then they just disappeared. Also still really tired all the time; how 15+3 though I think that’s more to do with waking up 3/4 times a night to go to the loo.

I find my symptoms didnt start to ease till the 16 week mark. Not want you want to hear but unfortunatly everyones different and they dont nust switch off automaticly at 12 weeks lol. Ive been feeling great tho since, it does get better.
