Are you exhausted as I am???

kima76 · May 2009

My body just feels over-come with exhaustion.

I am only 4 weeks away from my new due date. I am due June 19th but our Dr. is inducing me early.

But anyway, I will be fine in the morning then all of the sudden I am hit so hard with an overwhelming feeling of exhaustion! I have to sit down and rest. I have not been able to go back to work because of this. Sometimes I will break out into tears b/c of it.

I went to work the other day for about 45 minutes and I was sooo exhausted. I work with toddlers and Pre-K children... very active work.

Just wondering if anyone else feels this as well...

GO MOMS!

Nope! But I work 2 jobs, I dont allow myself to be. But then again, I'm a couple weeks behind you too. Maybe a catnap would help you out if you could take one?

Yup, I feel like this, but my problem.....I can't just come home from work, I HAVE a toddler! Haha! He's almost 2 and ALL BOY! I feel horrible when DH is at work and I'm home with him because I can't play with him outside. He literally runs circles around me and I can't catch him. Even being inside is tough enough.

Tonight I thought I'd be able to rest and enjoy a peaceful weekend, and surprise, our water heater broke. DH worked on it with his dad from 4pm to just a little while ago. I'm SOOOO tired and I know I still won't be able to sleep! And now all the errands I was supposed to do today gets pushed to tomorrow, so no luck for a nap tomorrow or a peaceful day. Ughhhh.....

I'm SO looking forward to my three day vacation in the hospital......(did I "say" that ou loud?)

*Raises hand* I do much of the time. I hate it because I have no motivation to get anything done.

I am right there! I can work from 7:45-4:00 5 days a week without a problem but the minute my day is done I am beat. Last night DH decided to have people over for a BBQ. I was so tired helping to set it up that I started to cry. Somehow I made it through the night but was clearly tired, had a tummy ache, and BH. DH owes me.

Today I have had no motivation to do anything but sleep every few hours.

It is very frustrating because I am one who LIKES to work. I will be staying home after the baby and starting an in-home daycare so I can work more closely with the children on music, art and just exploration. Our home is right next to our local park. ANYWAY!!! I have worked through this whole pregnancy 40+ hours a week. These past few weeks have been amazingly different. I am very frustrated with how exhausted I have felt. It is not just sleepy it is my BODY feeling overwhelmed. I know my baby is going to be big because of my doctor telling me he is growing fast! :O) This is very frustrating...

I'm pretty darn exhausted! Sometimes at work it takes all of my energy just to push air through my lips to speak. It's unreal. I sleep the moment I get home and rest as much as I can on my days off. Socialization is so unrewarding - I have no stamina!

I'm starting to get there. I'm ok in the mornings, but just start to really poop out by late afternoon.

Me too! I am find when I first wake up.. but after I eat breakfast, take a HOT shower and start getting ready... I start getting that exhausted feeling. Like my body just wants to quit!

I am now in the nesting stage... you wouldn't believe all of the work I have accomplished. But BOY do I pay for it later!
