I am exhausted!

I mean like I could fall asleep at any moment. I am not normally like this, and it is bugging me. I can't get anything done, so my house is a mess... Grrrr...

Anyone else?

Yes, I'm exhausted. there's been a few times this week where I've sat down and been out to wake to one of my kids opening my eyelids or jumping on my lap. Not good with 3 young kids running around. LOL.

Me too! Any suggestions on boosting energy levels would be great. With three other little ones there is a lot that has to be done even if Mama just wants a nap.

Oh, I am so exhausted! Especially starting around lunchtime until about 4pm. I can't even sit down during that period time or I'll sleep for hours.

Today's the first day in a week I haven't taken a nap. I NEVER take naps. Of course, there are still plenty of hours in the day in which to fit a nap.

Very sleepy and groggy here. DD loves her Disney movies, so she's pretty content to watch those while I veg out on the couch for a while. I've just been moving reallllllllyyyyyyy slow doing housework and things. Then sometimes I forget and stand up too fast and get very lightheaded. Ah, the joys of the first trimester.

I'm SOOO tired, too. When I was pg with DD, I slept 12-14 hours a day. I can't do that now, and it's hard!
I'm working on changing my schedule so that I am in bed really early (8:30 last night!) in order to avoid napping when DD naps, it's the only time I can get stuff done.

Yep, I've been pretty tired. That's probably partly because I was out of town at a good friend's wedding this past weekend though, and I spent a lot of energy helping out with wedding stuff. I kept having to take little breaks. I am going to bed really early tonight!

Beyond. Exhausted.

But that could be because I'm packing our entire house up this week to move to a bigger one this weekend with room for new baby.

Or it could be because I'm growing a fetus.

Who knows?

I work 3rd shift, 3am-11am and DH gets home from work at 6pm. I definitely don't get a nice 7 hour nap in there! I still have to run my errands and do the housework so it's usually a 4 hour nap and another 4 hours at night. That was hard before getting pregnant and now I just want to curl up and cry because I can't get seem to actually stay asleep when I do get to sleep. Blech, 2 more days at this job before I start my new one, with different hours and more time to sleep

Not tired exactly.... but groggy and feeling lazy. But it's summer, and we're doing lots of R&R around here, so I'm sure that helps. Also, my client load is blessedly light during my first trimester, so I'm enjoying the slower pace for a few months.

School and all the related activities starts back in a few weeks, and we'll see how that affects me!

Thoroughly exhausted here too. Somewhat conveniently, DD1 still "needs" me to lay down with her for nap. Since I need the rest too, I'm not resisting. I'm going to get as much sleep/rest as I can now! lol
