I’ve woken up today after not a bad nights sleep - eaten walked the dog and around lunchtime feel exhausted. I couldn’t work from home anymore been in bed the last few hours and do t feel any better. Is this normal at 20 weeks? X

No. Call your midwife, it sounds like your iron levels could be low.

Please get your bloods checked OP! It could be anemia and you might need iron supplements

I'm in a similar state OP, now 28 weeks. Iron supplements are helping but I'm still permanently washed out. Working FT and having a 2 year old do not help. Lockdown pregnancy was so much easier!

Thank you so much for your replies I’m taking iron supplements already! Luckily it’s got better over the last week x
