Hi all,
Im almost 13 weeks and struggling with fatigue and also lightheadedness particularly when I stand up after sitting down. At my 8 week appointment I was told my blood pressure was quite low but that that was normal and they weren’t particularly concerned.
My 8 week bloods came back okay but my iron was on the lower end of normal.
I am so exhausted even after a full nights sleep I am dragging myself around like a zombie.
I don’t remember experiencing any symptoms with my son but this was 6 years ago and I’m now 35 so wondering if this is just because I’m older now I’m more tired. I have no idea how people cope with pregnancy and toddlers!
I had hoped the tiredness would subside when the nausea and sickness did around 10 weeks but if anything it’s worse! I work full time and really struggling!
