Brain fog / is it really a thing?

[flowerpot258]

I'm 7 weeks pregnant with my third at the moment and I just feel really spacey.

Is this really a thing? I feel like I have vivid thoughts and not sure if some memories were just dreams or they really happened..

This feels so horrible! I've never had this before. It feels horrible.

What is happening? Have you had this type of thing before?

Have you had your booking appointment yet OP? Might be your iron. Im 31 weeks with my second and the brain fog/tiredness is real.

Midwife called and said my iron should be 30+ and it was 13! Worth checking x

@justanothermanicmonday1 - thanks for the reply. I've not had any appointments yet. Still another 2 weeks. I might call gp sooner and discuss. Thanks.

Just to add I feel very strange, like the feeling you get with de ja vu except this has been constant today. It's really strange and I have no idea if this could be something else. Im o my 7 weeks at the moment and keep having these weird vivid thoughts from dreams I've had and just generally feel spacey / the feeling of de ja vu

I had a GP appointment at 9 weeks and he gave me the iron tablets right away! Definitely worth checking x

I felt like this in both my pregnancies. It didn't fully go after either 😅. I believe it's perfectly normal but please mention to your gp if you are concerned x

To add, I didn't need any iron supplements x
