Hello,

In around 5 weeks pregnant and I'm absolutely exhausted! I have a 20 month old and don't remember feeling this tired when I was pregnant with my toddler... is this normal?

I'm not really getting time to rest much as I have my toddler, work and I'm a student nurse too

My daughter is staying at her grans for a night this weekend so hoping that will recharge my batteries, any other tips on dealing with the tiredness

I’m 5+2 with my first pregnancy and I’m exhausted. I didn’t think anything of it but I feel like I could sleep for a week straight.

I’m guessing this is normal as ours bodies are going through so much change but I’m looking forward to having more energy!

I'm pregnant with my third and I've never experienced exhaustion like it. I slept 12 hours a day to cope with it. In the evenings when the tiredness was at it worst I felt like I was coming down with something, I was achey and shivery. It was horrible.
I'm 11+4 now and it seems to be subsiding somewhat.

Hi all. I am 5w2d pregnant via IVF and a little neurotic at the moment. Apart from sore boobs, raging hunger and fatigue I don't really feel pregnant? Is anyone else feeling like this? I know I need to stop Dr Google but can't seem to haha.
