I'll be 14wks tomm. and I'm still totally exhausted. I may have a burst of energy once in awhile but it only lasts for an hour max. two. I heard a lot of women get there energy back by 12wks but here I am...still waiting. I was going to make sugar cookies for xmas today and that's out the window. Had to force myself to make cupcakes b.c DH has been waiting for them for a week now. I think my energy has left me and isn't coming back!
i really got mine back at 17 weeks, not just random bursts...although i still have my days...like today where i didn't sleep well last night and have had a random 24 hour m/s attack!!!
Pretty much I'm with soldiers. When all kids are above age 2 it gets better for a while... Seriously you will feel worse than this when the baby is small.
I started feeling better in week 14. With that said, have you had your iron levels checked? If you have low iron it can exacerbate how tired you already feel.

I did when I was around 9wks and it came back normal. Healthy as a horse the doc. said (for all the tests). I do work some insane hrs though and dont get much sleep b.c when I should be I spend it with the hubby. So I think it may have something to do w/ it. Uck. Hope it starts to get a bit better!
Re: When will I ever stop feeling so exhausted?
I did not get mine back intil mid 14th week. Hang in there. Also even though i feel more energetic it is not like non pg for me.
