I’m 28 weeks and today I keep falling asleep. I felt like this yesterday but it was hot yesterday so I had an early night thinking that would fix everything and woke up this morning feeling terrible again had to drag my fat self out of bed, Iv fallen asleep 7 times so far. I’ll be sitting then my eyes start closing I’m fighting with myself to keep them open it’s almost like when you go to bed and watch tv and you feel your self nodding off at last so turn off the tv, but it’s happening on and off all day! I was at my midwife yesterday morning and everything checked out fine, no, urine and what not. Is it Normal to suddenly feel absolutely exhausted? Could the baby be having a growth spurt maybe ?

I’m 28 weeks and napped for 3 hours earlier! I’m absolutely exhausted. Did you have your bloods taken too? I’m waiting for my results and wouldn’t be surprised if my iron came back low!

Yes my iron has been low the whole
pregnancy it’s been 100 since my last check so I’m back on iron pills but this tiredness has came on so suddenly im falling asleep now it’s only 7pm I don’t know what’s wrong with me. I honestly thought that an early nihht last night would fix it all

I'm 28 weeks too and I was similar yesterday - falling asleep on the sofa while we watched our bedtime TV! I think it's a combination of baby growth spurt, low iron (for me), and the heat. I remember in my first pregnancy I would get absolutely knackered and wake up and my bump would seem twice the size!
