Anyone feeling tired yet?

I am! Does anything help? I have a hard time keeping my eyes open in the afternoons.

I am too! My only solution so far is to take a nap.

Good idea. I'm SO going to use the lactation room at work for a nap from now on. Just one of the many benefits of breastfeeding.

I am down right exhusted and the worst is I cannot sleep so : <----- this has been me for the past 2 weeks!!!!!!!!! I was exshusted even before I found out so it is so tirering (no pun intended)

[Brisen]

Yes. I start falling asleep if I sit down any time after 11am. The only solution for me is a quick nap (I always feel worse if I have a long nap) or getting up and walking around. I do better on days when I sleep in.

Even before I knew I was pregnant I was wondering why I kept falling asleep with the boys, sleeping 8 or 9 hrs (a rarity around here) and still feeling exhausted the next day.

I do find that even if I can have some quiet time for 10 or 15 min with no one jumping on me I feel refreshed. And even though it seems counter intuitive, excersise can be great, too.

I am totally feeling it!! Yesterday I got hit hard by the afternoon and again today. I'm off work at 11am so its nice to come home and just crash while dd watch's a movie..

Yeeeeeeessssss. Ugh. My sleep schedule is really off now, too, between DH having a cold (snoring!) and taking unintentional naps. Then I stay up late, and the next morning I feel AWFUL. I guess the little sesame seed isn't as much of a night owl as me.

[htcamommy]

Been taking a nap with the little ones every day from 2 to 4. I was like this with my dd only I actually think I was worse. Like I slept probably more than I was awake. Ds I had HORRIBLE insomnia for the first trimester and stared at the walls all the time. Really really sucked actually.

[ursusarctos]

Yep. And I can't sleep. Past few nights I haven't really been able to relax into sleep and I sleep really restlessly and wake up after 6 hours. Sure hope this doesn't continue for 9 months

[SunShineSally]

I donot remember feeling this tired and crabby when I was pregnant with Ds! It is starting to really tick me off so I am crabby because I am tired and I am crabby because I am pregnant and I am crabby because I am mad that I am crabby could you follow that

Right isn't it : why can't Dp follow that and totally understand that is is probily more annoying to me than him

[speculaa]

No more tired than usual! I got my BFP this morning at 5:45am and couldn't go back to sleep!

[MommaSomeday]

I have been so incredibly exhausted. More so than when I was pregnant with Gideon. By the time I get home from work, I can't do anything but lay on the ouch for a while to recharge. I really need to get back into my habit of exercising in the mornings - it helps me feel so much better throughout the day.

[dantesmama]

I am beyond exhausted. I don't remember being this tired this early with my other pregnancies. I wish I could nap, but if I were to fall asleep the boys would probably burn the house down or something.

[VegMomma]

So, so tired. I was pretty tired with ds1, not at all with ds2, but my ass is being kicked this time. It might be time to bring the tv out of the closet so that I can get some rest while the lads zone out...

[WaitingForKiddos]

I went from being sleepy at about 9pm rather than 10:30pm to also needing a nap at 1m sharp to now being exahusted at all times beyond the 45 minutes after waking up from sleeping. I fell asleep at 8pm last night!
