I was able to get a lot of cleaning done around the house today...and now I just woke up from a 3 hour nap!! And I got a full night's sleep last night.
You might be anemic. My OB did a blood test when I complained about being really tired. It turned out that I had low iron. I was really tried until I started taking iron supplements. After a couple days of taking iron, my energy was back to normal.
I have figured out that if I do the slightest thing, I am out for a couple days! I feel like the laziest woman in the world right now. OH well, I bet in about 5ish months I'll be busy busy busy. Thats my excuse :-)

Yep, I was anemic with DD so they just ran some BT to check it this time around. But I also get super constipated so taking the iron pills sucked for me! I also have to take stool softners...the joys of pregnancy! lol
I'm convinced they are all lies about the "wonderful" second trimester. I was told the morning sickness and fatigue would go away. Neither is true!! I'm still tired all the time and I still have nausea at night.
Same here! Full night of sleep and a 3 hour nap. I woke up and we made breakfast, then after eating it and cleaning it up, I asked DH for a backrub. I went and laid on the bed and was almost asleep by the time he was done. He covered me up, kissed me and turned off the light. When I woke up it was 2:30! I laid down at 11:15! I feel better though
Yes. I pretty much slept through my entire 1st trimester, then had energy from weeks 13-18. Then around 19 weeks, I became exhausted again. Granted, there's a lot going on at work and at home (trying to get the nursery ready, our basement flooded during the torrential downpour we had earlier this week), but I can't believe how wiped out I've been lately!
Yes! I feel like more this trimester than last. I had a great nights sleep and woke up and went to Kohls and the grocery store. By time I came home, unpacked, and had some lunch I was asleep on the Lazy Boy. Didn't wake up for an hour and a half.

It ALL comes back....in 3rd tri. lol Good luck to all of you though!
I am exhausted still! I teach junior high and after school I come home, eat and go to sleep until the next day. When I finally have a good day, the next day seems to be worse than ever I really hope the rumors about 2nd trimester are true and start soon! Everyone just keeps telling me it will kick in any day now....
Yes! Although I'm not quite as tired as I was during the 1st tri, I'm still tired. I also feel lazy...especially on the weekends. I guess after a weeks worth of work it just feels right to lay around all weekend and not do a thing. Weekends make me wonder how I make it through a work day without a nap...
Re: Anyone else still really tired?
this.
