I am 24 weeks with our first baby and I'm just looking to see if it's normal to feel as exhausted as I am at this stage.
My bloods are fine and despite being quite low mood wise which could be a factor I am utterly drained. I can't get through the day without a nap and my husband seems to think it's not v common to be this tired at this stage. I have yet to feel like im blossoming and tbh am not finding this easy at all. Im so worried I feel this tired when baby is here that I won't cope! Sad

When I was pregnant with my 2nd I looked and felt terrible the entire pregnancy, never blossomed or had that glow. Was just grey and tired. My oldest was 8 so wasn't like I had a toddler to chase about, plenty me time....was just exhausted. Once baby arrived I felt great..so great I fell pregnant 8 weeks post partum.

If youre tired, rest, every pregnancy is different so don't worry if you don't feel you're blossoming. Personally, I didn't enjoy my 2nd pregnancy at all but was perfectly fine once she was here. Be kind to yourself

I am very similar. Im 26 weeks with our first baby and constantly tired. I nap most days im at home (mostly weekends as i work full time still). Never really felt that glow, just tiredness etc.
