This pregnancy exhaustion is killing me

in Toddlers: 12 - 24 Months

Man, is this the way it's going to be for the rest of the pregnancy?  I know I have more on my plate than last time with having a toddler and not sleeping well at night, but good lord.  I am a zombie every evening.  Like I barely can enjoy being awake and need to go to bed pretty much right after Adam.  Forget about deep conversations and deep thinking.

Is this my lot in life until Sep?

    I'm about 9 weeks ahead of you and so I can say, yes unfortunately.  Exhaustion has hit me hard this time; probably doesn't help DD doesn't STTN every night and my job sucks big donkey diick right now.  :(

    I can sympathize with you and pregnancy exhaustion. DS also just started getting up multiple times a night again (great timing!). On top of it all, I'm trying to get the house packed up so we can move across the country. Yeah, it's not going well.

    Also, I just read the top of the page as "Reply to an exhausting message"

    Maybe I should go to bed

    Unfortunately.......I think so :((! I am SO tired, I was just telling DH how I don't even feel human anymore because I am so exhausted. DD has slept like complete crap since January, waking at least 2-3 times a night. I can tell you right now had she pulled this when we were TTC, we would have never been TTC! I can't deal with the sleep deprivation. I am such a miserable person lately. Hopefully, it gets better!~

    This is how I feel too.  I keep waiting for that 2nd trimester energy boost.

    Yeah, I'm pretty tiredat night.  Yet I can't sleep for_shiit at night.  Grrrrr--I have had insomnia pretty much since the moment of conception, but I have no idea why!  I'm pretty ready to just have this baby since I'm up all night anyway.  Not really, of course, but I am ready for May!

    I'm having trouble sleeping too.  I have a hard time shutting off thoughts, especially about work or my mean boss.

    So much more stressful!  I almost cried when talking to DH about it today.  I've been in the same job for almost 10 years now and I am on the verge of walking out.  I have to stick it out through this pregnancy b/c the medical benefits are amazing, but I cannot return to my same job after ML.  I have no idea what I'll do.  /pity party

    I can relate.  I've been with my job for 11 years and my new boss has just made it so hard for me.  I've cried many times and started doubting my skills, even though she's like that with almost all of her staff, so it's not just me.

    I am taking a 2 year leave from my position once baby is born.  I hope to find something pt in my field by the end of that time.  Is there anything you can do  make the job better or get a better job in the same company?
