Anyone else not feeling like themselves?

I am a SAHM to two little girls and it seems like I've gotten pregnant, the thought of doing anything is totally overwhelming. I am struggling to get the basics done like cooking dinner and doing laundry. I feel tired all the time. I'm cranky and overly sensitive and even though I know I'm being dumb, in the moment those feelings are so real. Anyone else feeling this way? I just want to feel normal again! 

I'm also battling seasonal allergies and  I haven't been able to breathe through my nose for a couple of weeks. :(

    Im so with you - Im usually a very energetic person when it comes to tackling my to-do list but I've been like a bump on a log since December.  I'm not especially sensitive - just don't want to do anything!   I hope I get my usual energy back in a few weeks.

    @cm716 our laundry is suffering greatly! Thank God I have an 11 year old that will help with it sometimes. I also created new chore lists for both the kids that are old enough to do chores so that helps me out a lot. I don't want to do anything when I get home from work! My DH makes dinner 95% of the time. I believe that cranky is part of the package and this too shall end.  :)

    I started taking down my Christmas tree today.... Yeah.. I know. It's usually down the weekend of New Years. I got half of the ornaments off and needed a break. I totally understand!

    I totally get you.. i am a FTM and can't wait to get my energy back.. Being an east Indian we do a lot of cooking and it's tedious and I find myself taking a break every few minutes.. my house is a mess but I am so glad my DH is very understanding. .

    I am just so tired all the time. I'm 12 weeks, so hoping I'm over this soon. Last night my goal was to stay awake to watch the xfiles, and I couldn't make it. That was 7:00!

    At work I waffle between nauseous and extreme fatigue. And I hate going home because my house is still messy and j just can't clean it. It has a strange smell that only I can smell, and I just want to cry.

    Yes, this is a magical time lol!

    Feeling the same way. If I can even work a whole day I have nothing left in me to do anything around the house. I look forward to my weekends of rest and getting a chore one here and there. When plans come up now I cringe, I don't want to do anything!

    I'm a SAHM too and have been soooo lazy lately. I wouldn't say I'm tired per se, but definitely just want to sit on my butt. DS has been watching a lot more TV than I used to allow (which he loves) but I hate feeling like a lazy mom! Today I finally got my butt in gear and got a bunch done around the house during naptime!

    Hugs to everyone!!! I've always been secretly lazy so I'm not sure if I just have an excuse now or if I'm really tired ... Oh well, we are creating humans damn it! We can sit around a little more if we feel like it!
