Overwhelming Tiredness

[Jen & Her Men]

Is anyone else experiencing this? I am 9 weeks pregnant and although have been feeling a little on the tired side since I fell pregnant, its nothing compared to the sheer exhaustion I feel now. I have taken it easy all last week and went out on Sunday to take my OH mum out for her birthday - we just went to a few shops then for something to eat and by the time I came home I felt ill with tiredness and had to go to bed. I went to bed at 7pm and slept through til 8 this morning and now its 14.30 and Im exhausted again and I have a really really bad headache. Is this normal because im starting to worry that there is something wrong. Is anyone else this tired??

Oh Yeah its normal.. ever since I was about 4 weeks I've slept alot more. I sleep in late, then have an afternoon nap and end up yawning again around 9.00-10.00. Recently though I thought I might be feeling less sleepy, but I'm going to shut up and stay in bed, now that my MIL has confirmed she's coming over to stay for a visit!

Ha ha!! I know how you feel. I do get on with my MIL and I feel really sorry for her as she has MS, but its just soooo much work trying to do her shopping for her etc etc, as well as sorting out my wedding in 5 weeks and working AND feeling this tired!! Sometimes all I want to do is crawl under my duvet and disappear... I dont know how mums with kids coppe when they are pregnant - at least I dont have little ones running around at the mo whilst I feel like this!!

I felt the same up until a few days ago. I am now starting to feel less like an afternoon nap. As long as I don't over do things I'm ok.....not quite full of energy, but certainly much more human again. xx

I am with you there Babylicious! I cant concentrate at all and I keep forgetting stuff and muddling up my words. Like this morning I called my OH to ask him for the lead for my phone when I meant the adaptor for my camera!! I dont make any sense most of the time! (Although Im sure he would tell you that I didnt make much sense before I was preggers either!)
