Exhausted - anyone else?

It's been a week and a day since I miscarried and I am just wiped out.  Last week I wasn't as bad.  Now I'm completely exhausted.  I could barely get out of bed this morning and hit snooze until I absolutely had to get up.

 

 I remember this after my 1st miscarriage but I was 10 weeks then and had hot flashes, engorgement/milk and the whole kit and kaboodle.  With my last one I do not remember this at all.

 

Does anyone else just feel physically exhausted?

I'm so sorry for your loss.  Yes, I remember following my D&C, it was a whole new level of exhaustion - even more so than being pregnant.  I imagine it's due to the fluctuation in hormones, not to mention the emotional took the whole thing takes on you.  After my M/C, I experienced exhaustion, some acne, mood swings, and headaches.  The exhaustion, acne, and mood swings hit me right away, and the headaches came on about 2 weeks post-M/C.  Everything seems to be tapering off now.  Hope you're feeling better soon!

 My mc left me extremely exhausted but it was because I lost a lot of blood and my blood count got very low. I would get dizzy just sitting in a chair. It took a lot out of me. I took iron supplements for a few weeks and now feel tons better. Maybe you need to add in an iron supplement for a while. Just a thought..... Hope you feel better soon.

Yes, I sleep all the time. I'm sure it's part physical and part due to feeling depressed.

 

I hope you start to feel refreshed soon.

The first 10 days or so were absolutely draining. I still have bad days, but I think it's just hormonal shifts and changes. I hope you feel better soon!

I am so sorry for your loss. I am sooo TIRED!! My son Jameson is still living but his twin brother Jaxson has passed, it will be a week on Saturday. People think you sleep and cry the whole time. I havent even had time to eat. With everyone calling, trying to pay bills and make sure the house is in order, I feel like I am going on an on. I am tired but cant sleep, my mind is racing.Plus, having a baby in the NICU is hard enough.Good luck with everything, I had to vent!
