When does it stop? :-(

Just wondered when i will start to feel more energised? At the moment i am absolutely knackered... i went to bed at 9pm last nite felt bad as i'd only seen my DH for about an hour.. but i was shattered and i am still really really tired this morning.... finding it hard to concentrate at work

You should get a burst of energy by around week 15....believe me though the feelings of being tired and having no energy will return with avengence once you pass the 25/28 week marker....enjoy it when it does come. I had a massive energy/nesting phase last week. I'm so tired etc today though - swings and roundabouts, the tireness etc is to make you rest and slow down to nurture LO better, before birth it's to make you rest before you need tons of energy for the delivery etc....all worth it in the end xx

I'm still knackered too, especially during the day. I'm not quite as tired as i was in the beginning but I don't know if its getting better or if i'm just getting used to it

Thanks for your comments........ are there any supplements/foods u can have that will give u that little bit more energy?

I started feeling more energized at 15 weeks but this week has been hell, tired in the afternoons (you have to take a nap) but the last 2 days it has been hard to drag myself out of bed!

As for foods, just stick to fruits, bannanas are full of folic acid and energy, oranges, melon, apples etc, also try to eat more salad and add in some meats like chicken.

Don't resort to caffine! or energy drinks!

Unfortunately, there isn't much more you can do, unless you are not taking iron or folic acid supplements. If you need iron, go to your Gyn, they will prescribe you it.

Oh, my fella was like that! Then he changed his mind and was the one hassling me, however, he grew tired of it when I changed my tune. Some nights, you may hear him screaming to be let go and struggling to crawl to the bedroom door
