Almost 18 weeks and totally exhausted

Is this happening to anyone else?  I was so hoping I'd feel better in the second trimester.  So far I am even more tired than I was in the first.

The last two nights I've gotten between 9 and 10 hours of sleep, and by midafternoon I feel like I can't keep my eyes open.

    Yes, I had energy for a few weeks but as of last Friday it's down to about half. I am really tired by about 7. But I just signed up for a yoga class that starts at 6:30 so hopefully that will help.

    I didn't get any energy back until 20 weeks, and it's still not like I feel super energetic all the time or anything - but it does get better eventually.

    My energy came back around 20 weeks.

    Me too.....I just took DD to the park (it took everything I had to get out and go) and now I feel as though I need a nap.

    Just wanted to say I felt the same way and I did notice that I got some energy back around 20 weeks as well.  Hang in there :)

    I am totally with you! I felt great in the first tri, was keeping up with my workouts and then 12 weeks hit and it was all downhill. I have been exhausted.

    Yeah, I thought I'd be feeling more energetic by now, but I'm still falling asleep on the couch by 8:30-9:00 every night. I'm trying to get the energy to start working out again, but by the time I get home from work, I'm way too tired. I'm hoping it gets better soon... I really need to get back on the treadmill :)

    I feel the same way!  I asked my doctor today at my 16 week appt and he said to keep exercising and that I may just have to go to bed earlier for the rest of my life! lol.  I usually feel ok until about 9pm and then I start getting ready for bed (I used to stay up until midnight - guess those days are over).

    I sleep almost all day on Sat/Sun...during the week I work and try to clean the house, so I get 7-8hrs, but on Saturday, watch out!  We're talking 11-12 hrs baby!
