I'm 26 +4 and feeling fed up. I feel sick all the time and I have no energy. Can barely leave the house as it's such an effort. I'm on iron tablets. Been on them a week. But I'm just feeling so awful it's getting to me. How can I get through the next 3 months feeling this bad?!

Are the iron tablets making you feel worse? I has to swap to liquid form during one of my pregnancies, the tablets didn't agree with me at all. One midwife told me to take them every second day if I found them hard to take. Are you working? Can you get signed off?

Thank you. I might try every other day and see if it helps. I'm not working but I home educate my oldest child so it's still pretty full on. But I can't really stop that. I'll talk to the midwife I think and see what she says too.
