Exhaustion again nearing third tri?

Is this normal? The past few days I have been super tired. I actually only had a few really tired days during my first trimester, such that I could fully enjoy my all day sickness as much as possible, but I had a lot of pep the past few weeks. I feel like crashing already and normally stay up to at least 11 PM.

Maybe it is just the heat?

  • I don't know but I have started getting tired more too. I felt good from the beginning of second tri up until this week. Very tired but it's been very hot here too.

  • It's either the heat or 3rd tri creeping up on me (maybe both), but for the past week I have been much more exhausted than my usual self. And if I don't get a mid-day power nap then I'm toast by 8 pm.

  • Heat. Third Tri. Swelling. You're growing a human. It's a crap ton of work.

  • Yup, getting tired here too. Blarg. 
  • I'm getting more exhausted as well... it's so hard because I still have so much left to do before baby arrives, and all I want to do when I get home is collapse on the couch!  I guess I'm glad I'm not the only one, but I can't imagine it gets easier from here on out... :-/

  • I'm not as far along as you, but I have days like this.  I definitely think its the heat, it sure doesn't help.

  • With my first pregnancy, I was exhausted the whole way through.  I never felt that "2nd tri burst" people talked about.  Growing a human requires work!  I'd also reevaluate how you're doing on iron and water intake just to be sure, but I don't think feeling tired is abnormal in pregnancy.

  • Yep. I can't get enough sleep these days. But it's difficult to actually fall asleep and stay asleep.  It's a lose lose situation.

  • yup, I'm feeling it too.  And I haven't really been out in the heat, I'm pretty sure it's just third tri kicking in.

  • I'm glad its not just me! And I live in Germany where it's not even that hot. I can't blame the heat!

  • YES!  I am close to my third tri and I am feeling like a zombie again.  Sooo tired.  I go to sleep right after I put my son to sleep.

    Amen. I am definitely feeling more exhausted day after day...some days I can power through, but other days I just want to go to bed at 6pm. The earliest I have gotten away with is 7pm (...yes, I'm secretly 70 years old) but that was when I was the only one home and had nothing on my to-do list.
