Should I be this tired?

Everyday the last 4 days I've taken a good hour or two nap right in the middle of the afternoon. I mean I get this little headache feeling & then the last thing I remember is waking up on the couch. Even after I wake up it takes me probably an hour to really feel like I have any energy...is this normal?

Re: Should I be this tired?

  • I sure hope so because I feel the same way. By 3:00 I am done.  I turn into a zombie. I have not stayed up past 9pm in months.

  • Oh yeah, normal...growing babies is hard work Smile

    Also, sometimes you can have some energy loss if your iron is messed up -- at your next appt. make sure they take blood and check your iron because it's pretty common for it to be low in pg, especially multiples pg and you may need to take an extra pill or two.

  • absolutely. :) in a couple of weeks or so, it will pass. you should get a brief 2nd trimester respite from the exhaustion. :)

  • Yep, normal.  I felt the same exact way until about 16 weeks.

    After 2 rounds of IVF & 2 rounds of FET, we were blessed with identical twin girls!

  • I would take 2 hour naps when I got home from work every day.  DH had to wake me up to eat dinner!

    Rest as much as you can.  You and those babies need the time to grow!
