3rd Trimester

Suddenly exhausted.. like ton of bricks exhausted.. anyone else?

I am so close and for the last couple weeks have been feeling really good (as far as feeling good in the 3rd trimester) but yesterday all of a sudden I was BEAT... HIT OVER THE HEAD with a brick of exhaustion. I came home from work, and couldn't even go out w/ my husband and DD, he let me stay home to rest and w/ in 10 minutes I was out cold.. slept an hour- woke up, forced myself to stay away.. went back to bed at 9:30.

Today, was up at 6, and already feel the exact same way.. like drunk,dizzy, exhaustion..

I was planning on working till the nitty gritty end.. but just asked my husband if he would mind if I went to reduced hours next week.. if she doesn't come this weekend (after attempt at a version/possible section).. if she sticks w/ the version, and they send me home to wait for labor to start-- I think I may be slowing down.. I never got this extreme exhaustion w/ my last pregnancy...

it's worse than the first tri mester!!

Anyone else suddenly beat and nearing the end?

  • Yes, like someone sucked the life out of me. Its hard for me to run simple errands now.

  • Yes! I fell asleep 3 times at my desk already and its only 10:30 :( I cant sleep for more than an hour and a half at a clip..so frustrating!!! I was all about "working until I give birth" but with 6 weeks to go, it seems a lot less feasible!!

  • this happened to me like 2 days ago but I thought it was food poisoning at first.. I felt like a bus had run over several times. I am 39w 5d today... hope this is sign that labor is imminent...

    That is the best way to describe this.. I was litterally feeling good other than aches and pains.. but I am seriously beyond comprehension exhausted..

    Good luck!!!

  • I'm barely 35 weeks and feel the same way!!  It's so hard for those of us that are trying to work until the day!! 

    Hang in there! We will get through it!! Wink

  • Yes I feel the exact same way just this past week, like once I hit 38 weeks. I feel like I can barely make it through the day and I cant imagine this getting any better...ZzZzZzZ.
  • Yes!  The past two days I've been crazy exhausted.  Yesterday I woke, took a shower, than a nap, went to lunch, then nap.  I can only do a little task and then I need a nap. 

     

    I feel bad w/ my two boys and yesterday was my son's b-day and I was a lamo mommy.  Luckily he thought I was super cool and I got a lot of I love you's because I pretty much let him play video games all day.  I know not ideal - but I figure one day out of the year is okay!!
