Never felt exhaustion like it

[Mammaof02]

I'm 7+1 and for the last week the exhaustion is absolutely horrific!! I can't remember being this tired for my other 2 pregnancies! I literally slept for about 18 hours of the day yesterday and could have slept the whole 24 hours! It takes all my energy to even get up 🥱🥱 my symptoms disappeared for a couple of days last week but they are definitely back! And the sickness hits as soon as I open my eyes, I hope it passes soon 😔 x

Are your iron levels ok? Hope it resolves but go steady and get a check up if it's different for you

Any history of twins in the family?

Beat me too it..

@Parisj I think I definitely need them checked, I haven't registered with midwife yet as my last 2 pregnancy ended in loss so i was waiting for my 8 weeks scan next Friday to check everything is OK to ring the midwife.

@ToBeOrNotToBee @Billyho oh how has this never crossed my mind 🙈😂 there are twins in the family, well my grans sisters were twins and then my cousin went onto have twins unfortunately she lost them. Maybe its because I'm older this time around but honestly I don't understand how people work full time, I need a nap after eating breakfast 🙈 xx

I was thinking twins.... I felt like DEATH with my twin pregnancy. Had a suspiciously large bump by 8 weeks too....

Otherwise make sure you're taking all your vits and just rest when you can. It may just be because you already have child (ren)? My first pregnancy I used to have early nights..... God I miss those! My eldest goes down a dream, but when my twins were wriggly at bedtime during first trimester I felt so tired I could cry! 18 weeks now and managing better. Hope you're not too hot, that's miserable with first trimester tiredness/sickness.

@TinyTeacher I did think maybe because I got 2 children now but tbh one is 10 and an absolute dream and one is 5, both sleep all night, and my partner does the school runs 😂 honestly I had breakfast one day in the week and needed a 2 hour nap afterwards that was after a 13 hour sleep straight through 😂 I'm going to try and hold out until Friday after my scan then request my iron if it isn't twins. I just feel horrific, I don't want to see anyone or talk to anyone, everyone is annoying me 🙈 x

Well you sleep rest all you can, your body is telling you to do that!

twins or not!
