Anybody else exhausted?

I can barely keep my eyes open past 8pm. Anyone else feeling this?

Re: Anybody else exhausted?

  • I fell asleep at 9:30 on Saturday night, gone are my days of out til 3 am!

  • I'm having the opposite problem. I can't fall asleep at a reasonable hour.

    I can't fall asleep at a reasonable hour either, then I end up sleeping til like 12:30. My sleep cycle blows right now and college isn't helping.
  • Yep most nights. Growing a human is exhausting. However tonight I can't fall asleep. Ugh.
  • I'm exhausted starting late afternoon, but push through it because of work and having to care for my kids. Then I end up unable to sleep, like now, and am up way too late for my 6 am wakeup time.
  • I'm on the 'my sleep cycle is screwed' train. I have a nap (sometimes 2) for several hours during the day. Then can't fall asleep until midnight or 1am. But I can't make it without my nap. I fall asleep while doing anything.
  • I'm exhausted all the time. Until around 11pm when my body decides it can't sleep, but instead wants to think about anything and everything until about 3 am when I finally clunk out. I wake up and am exhausted all day until 11pm, it's an evil cycle :-S
  • Always tired!!
  • Yep. Always. I don't think I've seen 10:00PM in at least a week. I've seen a lot of 2:00AMs though as something always manages to wake me and keep me up for a while these days...
  • Constantly. All the time. I'm never NOT tired actually. It's hard enough just being pregnant much less being pregnant with a 15 month old you have to chase around all day and taking full time classes.

  • My TCM practioner suggesting laying down for a few minutes after lunch everyday, or at least putting my head on my desk.  I think it's helped me with fog that tends to set in the afternoon.  But I haven't had any fatigue in my 2nd trimester that compares with the 1st.  The 2nd picture in @MissyCee 's signature captures it perfectly!
  • I had a small reprieve of being less exhausted than first trimester, but not I am back to fading

  • Yes I am more exhausted at the end of the day than normal. I used to enjoy some alcoholic drinks with my hubby after putting our LO to bed and now I am lucky if I can get through one of our half hour shows before crashing!

  • I wake up at 6 and work 7:30-12:30 as a preschool teacher. I never sit down. By the end, I'm an exhausted hungry beast.
  • Defiantly yes.
  • So. So. Sleepy. Thankfully my big girls are in school and my little guy will still cuddle with me for a nap. I'm completely useless by noon. Zzzzzz.
  • Yup, it's noon and I just got up. Tomorrow's 8:30 am class is gonna suck
  • I feel useless 90% of the day. Then all of a sudden at bedtime I can't fall asleep. And of course my DS is at the age where nap time doesn't exist anymore. This no energy stuff is awful. Not falling asleep until 1 or 2, then being up at 7-730 is not my idea of kosher.
  • I'm happy I'm not the only one!
  • Im like wide awake the first 3 hour of my day and then my energy crashes. I fall asleep in easily less than 5 minutes of laying down.
  • Yea im tired but i don't really recall it being any different from pre pregnancy really. I actually think because of the increase in my water intake (pre pregnancy i was lucky if i drank a full cup of water in an entire month) i think that has actually helped. That is truly something that scares the hell out of me about post pregnancy. I'm a super grumpy tired person. When I'm at home and im ready to sleep i freaking sleep lol with no regard for literally anything else at all that may need to be done or that i may have to do. Otherwise i just get evil. I'm fully aware of the fact that babies don't much care about what your sleep schedule is and i really really need to maybe sorta start practicing for what i can expect to happen once the baby gets here. My SO stays up until all hours of the damn night and morning so i know he will help a lot with random cryings and diaper changes but unfortunately he can't exactly breast feed lol but regardless i know that when the baby gets here i will get used to it and do what i need to do i just don't want to be so evil and take it out on my SO just cuz im tired and frustrated with a screaming hungry baby.

  • Every. Single. Second. Idk if I've ever been so tired, worn out and unmotivated in my life. Definitely wasn't this bad last pregnancy.
  • I fourth and fifth the exhausted thing.  I had a few good weeks during the early part of 2nd trimester and now I'm just toast. 

    I fall asleep at 11pm, can't wake up until 8am (except those lovely bathroom breaks 2-5 times a night), get home at 7 or 8, make dinner, walk the dogs at 9pm, try to watch a show with DH, make it through one if I'm lucky maybe two if then I'm like, sure I can watch this show I'm awake now...ZZZZZZZZZzzzzzzzzz before the opening credits sequence finishes. 

    I have so much I need to get done before the baby gets here and I'm not sure how that's going to happen -.-

  • Yup.  I fall asleep on the couch around 7:30 every night.  Thank goodness DD has an early bedtime.

  • I'm with some of you on the not feeling sexy, no increased libido. Sex is the last thing on my mind. Food and sleep are all I want.
