Not like myself...

Anyone else just feel drained? My LO got up 2 hours early today and it really took the wind out of my sail. I just feel like it's not even 3rd trimester and I'm whooped!

Thanks for the vent

My son did the same thing yesterday. Woke up 2 hours earlier than usual, then fussed at me like I was the one who woke him up! Definitely not, kiddo. This momma wanted some sleep too...

My body is on the edge and ready to not work until baby is born. I feel so worn out and exhausted. I feel like it's gonna be a long stretch to the finish line with this pregnancy.
I try to make myself do things to get in gear. Most of the time that works.

I've been feeling that way for the past couple weeks (22wks).. I feel like I get more winded and all I wanna do is sit down and rest. I've been so beat that I don't even want to cook dinner or do housework. I am still currently working (a lot... 72 hrs/wk) but I am anticipating cutting my work hours in a couple weeks..

I am really drained as well this time around and having a 20 month old to run after is making 10 x harder

I feel the same way. I have to psyche myself up in the mornings to go to work & when I get there, psyche myself to stay. I'm ready to stop working as I feel constant pressure in my pelvic region. When LO moves when I'm walking is the worst. Unfortunately I can't take maternity leave yet, too early. My company only gives 3 months leave

I read that if you have low iron levels you can feel really exhausted! Same happened to me last week with crazy heat in New England so I decided to eat baby kale every day to get extra iron to keep up with my 2 kids. I also definitely feel a difference being my third pregnancy than my others and I'm only 28! But anyways your not alone

That whole energy boost in the second tri is clearly a myth. I feel a whole lot better than I did in the first tri, but I'm still tired all the time. I hope my energy returns after LO comes!
