Holy cow, I was going to write this exact same post...I'm exhausted!  I'm letting my DS watch an episode of Sesame Street on netflix so I don't have to chase after him.  And, I'm actually glad my husband is away on a business trip so I don't have to cook dinner for us and I can just have a frozen pizza!

It depends on the day for me.  Some days I feel like I could sleep 24/7, but other days I feel "normal".  Yesterday, I slept from 2:30-4:30, fell back asleep at 8 and didn't get up till 8 this morning!

This. This exactly.  I slept all day yesterday, but today I ran errands & did yard work.  Fingers crossed that I'm having more "normal" days than not during the work week!

lol yes its crazy, I don't remember being this tired with my first, but I also wasn't chasing a toddler around too! Sprout has been on all afternoonand I feel bad. I think it will be better when it gets warmer and I can get lo outside or at least I hope it gets better

I don't feel tired, just lazy. I haven't done a single productive thing today. I think H is wondering what this lump on the couch that used to be his wife is...

 This is me too.  Some days are better than others.  Although I have found I can fall asleep a LOT earlier than I usually do any night.

I know right! Luckily my husband worked today and hasn't seen be bumming around but ds must be thinking i'm a total lazy but. Luckily I can lay on the floor and he thinks its funny and climbs on me. That counts for play time right?

Yep, napped from 12:30 when DS went down for his nap until 2. And the worst part is I pinned hubby down by resting my head on his chest curled up on the couch!

I've been so lazy! I also have been going to bed earlier than normal. I'm never going to be able to get anything done. I usually work after the kids go to bed but these days I need to go to bed right after them. Can't wait for my energy to come back because I'm going to have to get super organized with 3 kids running around.

This is me, too. Some days are ridiculous with how fatigued I am.  Others (like today, for instance) aren't too bad.  I know the exhaustion hit the worst last time around 6w... we'll see how it progresses this time!

Yes!! I am normally full of energy but today especially I was practically falling asleep standing.

I'm jumping on the bandwagon too lol. I'm actually bumping from my phone in bed right now! I've needed a nap and/or early bedtime lately. Guess my husband will have to learn how to cook and clean lol!

Yes! DH let me sleep in today until 9:30. It was heavenly

I have to work 7-3:30 tomorrow, which means I have to get up at 5 and shower...not quite sure how that will play out lol

Wow! What a nice DH. Super jealous that you were able to sleep in!!!

My energy has been coming and going in streaks. I have several times throughout the day where I literally can't keep my eyes open. It's going to be a rough couple of weeks!

I am killer exhausted! Work is killing me -- I keep almost falling asleep at my desk! I slept most of yesterday and I'm still completely exhausted today. I have to be here till 8 tonight so hopefully I'll wake up at least a little bit before then...
