Exhausted and hoarse in late pregnancy

[Dov'sMom]

I am 36 weeks pregnant. As of maybe three days ago I am totally wiped. I slept 13 hours Sunday and woke up yawning. I am also inexplicably hoarse (no cold, not coming down with anything). This is my third pregnancy, different from the others in general intensity -- my body is sore, where it wasn't with the earlier ones (rolling over is a misery); I have strong, painful BH all the time, which I didn't with the earlier ones; food aversions lasted longer, etc. Is this normal?

I am mildly hypothyroid, and have been taking 88 mcg of Synthroid the whole pregnancy. I know tiredness and hoarseness are signs of hypothyroid -- could my thyroid function have suddenly plummeted? Would the symptoms come on all of a sudden like that?

I've been exhausted, too and it just hit me the last couple of nights. Maybe a cold's coming on? Who knows. But I fell alseep last night with my lamp and TV on and didn't even get to say goodnight to DS - DH took care of putting him to bed. I tossed and turned last night from having a scratchy throat, stuffy and was just totally uncomfortable. I'm 36 weeks as well.

My eyelids were heavy on the ride to work this morning and I've been yawning constantly. It doesn't matter how long I sleep, it's how much of a restful sleep I get, but that's impossible right now with a HUGE belly.

I have off and on days- the other day I told dh- I feel like I have mono! I could just sleep and sleep and sleep. then other days I feel more normal. I think with late pregnancy everything is just so nuts that much of it is just "normal". The best I think is to eat well, rest a lot and try to relax when you can.

Could the hoarseness be from reflux?
