Feels like the 1st trimester again

dobbysmom · July 2014

I'm nearly 33 weeks and already not working, so I'm not over exhausting myself there... But is anyone feeling a recurrence of that bone deep exhaustion that happened in the 1st tri? I'm not expecting to feel amazing everyday but holy cow I haven't felt like this since 14 weeks!!

As of two days ago, my energy has been completely depleted.

I'm only in week 29 but I have felt this too. I was JUST telling my mom that this morning. Guess it will be like this til the end?

rebennett06 · July 2014

yep. 100%. The last week or two have been naps on my lunch break every day, plus falling asleep super early every night. It might be exhaustion, but could also be due to the lack of sleep at night because i'm so uncomfortable!!! Anyone having nausea coming back? Not as bad as 1st tri but I'm nauseous if I'm hungry, and nauseous again right after I eat!

A&DPritchett2be · July 2014

I am completely drained. My mom even told me that I sounded tired on the phone.

wrightpalomo · July 2014

Exhausted plus uncomfortable. I can't figure out how to sit at my desk or lay in bed or walk down the block without being uncomfortable. Maybe if everything was underwater I'd be fine? I feel like bizarre-o Ariel.

I've definitely been wanting to take naps more than the past few months, and have fallen asleep twice while DH is home working on dinner. He's not usually home in the evenings, so I think knowing that I *can* take a quick nap is also playing into it.

I gotten a few bouts of random nausea... But every time I get a strong BH I get super nauseated! I almost threw up on the counter at Joanns this weekend!

dobbysmom · July 2014

I'm sorry everyone else is feeling this way too! Hope this home stretch goes by fast for us!

RedBaramid · July 2014

The nausea is real again! I ditched the m/s mid second tri and I am miserable because it seems to have resurfaced. It's not NEARLY as bad, but it is real. Also my manager and I just cut most of a shift out of my work week to try and keep me working since I am exhausting out so bad. I consider myself lucky that I have a manager willing to do this for me.

I've been exhausted since 1st tri, so I don't know the difference. However, my 1st tri pregnancy nose came back with a vengeance this morning. My husband was cooking chorizo (strong flavor/aroma, greasy, spicy sausage) this morning. I walked into the kitchen and the smell sent me into dry heaves worse than I ever experienced in 1st tri.

saraeric · July 2014

I've been taking a nap in the morning and in the afternoon. I am not sure what I'll do when school starts back up in the middle of August...it's going to be rough! Definitely have been feeling more tired...

Jenner37 · July 2014

Yes, totally normal too, one of the luxuries of third tri

BrightMoon1 · July 2014

Yes! So so tired. To the point of almost not being able to function. Dishes are piled up in my sink right now and DH has been doing most of the cooking -and we've been eating lots of takeout too. Ugh, this doesn't bode well for the next 9 weeks. And it's not like it's going to get better when baby comes. Yikes. This is new to me too because I've always felt pretty well and fairly energetic in my 3rd trimesters of my 2 previous pregnancies. I was diagnosed with anemia at my last appt though, so I'm assuming that has something to do with it. The iron supplements don't seem to be helping much yet.

Sicheyanne · July 2014

I'm 29 weeks and I've been feeling this way as well. I hope you feel more energetic soon.

JenniferAnn1972 · July 2014

Not only have I been exhausted, I've been throwing up again. Didn't expect this bonus

Bella2425 · July 2014

I am so tired. It's like the nicest July day we have ever had but I can't get myself out of the recliner to enjoy it. I am beat.

Marchie1214 · July 2014

I'm tired all the time and can't sleep at night. And although I barely threw up in the 1st tri, I'm throwing up all the time now thanks to my wonderful reflux. Ugh!

jortiz780 · July 2014

Yes, I've been nauseous some mornings (dry-heaving) at times and get so exhausted and sleepy in the afternoon. On top of that, so uncomfortable. 8 more weeks!

formerwigirl · July 2014

I've noticed everyday at about 3pm I hit a wall. The exhaustion sets in big time. I just keep trying to tell myself I have 10 weeks or so to go.

This is exactly me. I closed my eyes for a second sitting at my desk today and really didn't want to open them back up. When I did, it was awful. I wanted to crawl under my desk and sleep right then and there.

I knew it was time to go to the hospital when my contractions really were making me throw up.

I am EXHAUSTED, uncomfortable, and half the time in pain or extremely sore so sounds like we are all in the same boat. Ready for September!

AR1of2 · July 2014

Yesss. I have so much trouble getting going almost every day now of the last 2ish weeks. Finally today I got some coffee (haven't had any caffeine since I could no longer stomach it during 1st tri) bc my eyes felt like they were closed and my brain refused to turn on.

Then when it's time to sleep, I'm magically awake! So far my insomnia isn't nearly as bad as it was 2nd tri, so why am I soooo tired during the day! Blah.

herecomesthesun086 · July 2014

I am also exhausted have been for the past few weeks ... I dread going into work because I'm so tired but I plan on working until my due date unless my doc says otherwise... I don't think it's as bad as first trimester yet hope it doesn't get like that again

tdegraeve1 · July 2014

Hey!!! Yes I totally feel this way I sit on the couch for two mins I'm out like a light bulb and sleep to an hour to two hours it's crazy! I feel like I shouldn't be to tiered all the time though. Something to bring up at the docs office tomorrow!

StefanyaMarie · July 2014

You are not alone in this one. I am at 31 weeks and the last week has been hell. I thought maybe it was because of our mini vacation the week before so this week I have been trying to be lazy and it isn't helping. Actually, it's just making it worse. Thankfully my 2yo is being really sweet and letting me rest as much as I want. Last night he insisted on cuddling on the couch and watching TV with me so that he could play with baby while I slept. Of course this resulted in me not sleeping because I had him touching my belly and singing and reading stories to be stomach. But it was too cute to care.

megs2011 · July 2014

Yep. I'm exhausted all the time. I don't sleep well at night. Most nights I wake up every hour. I look forward to when the kids go for their nap and I look forward to their bedtime. They go down at 9 pm... before it was 630-7 and part of me misses that right now lol.

JustCricket · July 2014

totally back to the utter exhaustion. Baby's takin all my energy!

jmolr · July 2014

Glad it's not just me! I've been napping every afternoon when my son naps and I'm still too tired to do everything I want to do for the day

conradraging · July 2014

I think this is worse than first tri. Ugggh

ltnguyen31 · July 2014

I'm 31 weeks and extremely exhausted ... Feeling like how I felt in my first trimester

widgetsnm · July 2014

So glad I'm not alone on this one!

MMason12 · July 2014

So glad I'm not the only one who is feeling this way! About two days my energy suddenly tanked and all I want to do is sleep all day. I was never this tired during the first tri and now I just feel like I am dragging. :-(
