15 weeks pregnant and still exhausted

I thought I would have more energy in the second trimester but feel just as tired as the first! It’s my first pregnancy and I’m sleeping fine. I have a busy job but trying to WFH as much as possible so I can rest more. Today I’m WFH and all I want to do is get back into bed, I’m contemplating calling in sick I feel so drained! Has anyone else felt the same at this stage?

Yes, I have a demanding job, now week 15, I'm feeling like a zombie some days. I used to go running a couple of times a week and do strenuous yoga but now I just sluggishly walk around.

Me too! Also have a very demanding job / one requiring a clear head & I am still exhausted most days. I’m taking progesterone suppositories though so maybe that has something to do with it. Hoping things improve once I can stop those after 16 weeks

Yep. 25 weeks, nearing the third trimester and still waiting for the so called second trimester energy.

I started to feel a bit better week 16 but still have the odd day of exhaustion here and there are 23 weeks.
