soooo sleepy...What would you do?

in 1st Trimester

I am in my 7th week and I am absolutley drained! I have never been this tired in my life!!!  My sister is giving me a guilt trip because I don't really want to go voer her house and walk around with her and the kids for trick or treating. I would just rather lay in my couch and take naps. I took a shower, and now I feel like I need another nap! 

Should I make myself get up and go?

    I'll be 7w tomorrow and I'm exhausted all the time! Part of me wonders am I just being lazy? Either way, DH has been supportive and I try to go to bed as early as I can so I can make it through the day with 1 to no naps :)

     If you don't feel like going...don't! :)

    Me too. I used to work late and then go to meetings for a volunteer org. If you don't feel like it, don't go. I pushed myself one day, was so miserable and it was the longest drive home.

    Me too! I woke up wide awake, went to the gym, came home...showered...H and I went to lunch, and then WHAM. Couldn't keep my eyes open so I took a nap for 1.5 hours. I'll be in bed by 9 tonight, no question.

    i am still tired all the time, but i have much more energy than i did at 7 weeks....

    i literally did not leave my house between 4-9 weeks, except to go to work...i was ridic tired.  and therefore, you should stay home and nap if that's what you want to do...i totally understand!

    Between 6 weeks and now I have been so exhausted that I have slept every minute possible.  It has gotten better, but at 7 weeks I wouldn't have done anything I was too tired to do.  You are not being irrational at all!  You need to listen to your body.

    I agree, you need to listen to your body. I doubt you will feel better once you're there- you'll just feel exhausted. Stay home, lay on the couch and get some rest! You have many Halloween's in your future.

    I finally realized that I do not have to feel guilty about being sleepy.  I mean, after all, we are creating life inside, right?  So, I don't think you should push yourself to do too much if you're tired.  In the end, you may regret it more if you do.  I have definitely been liberal with taking naps and sleeping in on the weekends when I can and I feel ever so much better when I get more sleep. 

    Don't worry, I hear the energy returns in the 2nd tri! Smile
