2nd tri fatigue, who is with me?

finger_lakes09 · June 2010

1) Wahoo for being 1/2 way!!

2) anyone else experiencing 2nd tri fatigue? I was feeling so awesome for a while, but now I am feeling whooped again....which is not good because we have SO much to do before that little guy makes his appearance!

yeah, I had a few good weeks, now the moment I walk in my front door I am lucky if I make it to 8 before I am dozing off.

Yeah, that crept back in about 22 weeks for me and hasn't stopped yet! I think it's here for good now!

Congrats on 1/2 way!

I feel like someone kicked my butt royally! Can't wait to go to sleep.

totally there with you-- I'm thinking about asking OB about it this Wednesday to see if it might be iron levels or something. I'm usually pretty active, and the fatigue is making me irritable!

LILBIT1221 · June 2010

I think what makes it worse is that even though I am exhausted...I can't sleep!

Yup. Know a little bit what thats like!

I've been experiencing fatigue this whole pregnancy.

What makes it even worse for me, is that I want so badly to do "things" and prep / clean, but I have to sit down between getting laundry out of the dryer and folding it....its beyond annoying, and completely out of character for me.

I hate not being productive.

TOTALLY with you!!! I was feeling great until about a week ago, and then I started having to go to bed again at 8:30! Work is the worst - about 3pm I get so tired that I feel like I'm going to cry. Ugh!

try running after a two year old all day long- then get back to me on fatigue. blah. exhaustion sucks.

MinaMyLove · June 2010

I'm exhausted! I slept for most of the day yesterday!

I run after15 3 year olds daily! I have lots of respect for women who already have kids and are pregnant again! Thankfully, I send them home at the end of the day

OP - have your iron levels been checked? Mine were low. I just started taking iron, and my energy is much higher! I've noticed a biiiig difference!

Im so glad Im not the only one. Increased energy only lasted about 2 weeks! Exhaustion hit me like a ton of bricks last week.

Caitlinetlantus · June 2010

Thank goodness I am not the only one! I also was feeling amazing about the time I hit my 2nd trimester then like about a week ago I just feel like I hit a wall! I thought that this sleepiness was not suppose to hit till week 28 it just feels like it came to early and I am afraid it is here to stay. Oh well its all worth it in the end right?

LIL_DERBY · June 2010

I am with you all!!! I am going to the Dr Friday and I am going to ask too. Someone in my Prenatal Yoga said it was probably my Iron levels because I am not a big red meat eater, etc.

i find it very hard to stay awake around supper time and i cant take naps or i wont sleep through the night lol but hey i guess we have excuses to be tired even if we havnt done anything lol

cja06 · June 2010

I'm exhausted but that's mostly due to my toddler who decided to stop sleeping through the night and gets up at 5:15 a.m. every day.

ME! I thought I was supposed to feel great during my second trimester, but I feel like I walked 20 miles at the end of the day- with an elephant on my back! My husband doesn't get it.
