  • I am 8 weeks pregnant and I feel the same way went to the doctors they took blood and already my iron is down so your iron levels may be down see if your doctors will take some blood to find out they might give yo iron tablets
  • @Mama_Kat im on && off also. Some days i dnt even feel pregnant but other days im like blaaahh! @momofmany79 dey took.blood about 3 wks ago && everything is fine. My dr saod its jus da pregnancy...he said for me to try not to sleep in too late..for me to get up about 8:30-9 && eat somethin w l not many carbs bcus that will tire yu..things such az oatmeal...fruit...whole wheat toast w l jelly!! I started yesterday && feel ok..im.goin to.continue..thanx ladies
  • I was going to post like this. Idk if I'm being wicked lazy, or really am THIS tired. Blah! I'm home all day every day and take naps, usually only an hr per day. Today I slept for 2.5 hours, and I'm still tired :|
  • @katlilly i get that way sometimes. Every now && then i will take a 2-3 hour nap but when i wake up usually after about 10 mins of bein up && wallin around...im fine! I try to set my alarm so i wnt sleep too long. I hav a 20 month old already && he runs me raged so the rest does help for when he comes home from daycare..i find myself very moody in the mornin. I used to b much of a morning person but now...dnt mess w l mama in the AM!! lol. I find eating 6 small meals a day helps instead of filling myself up cus thats when i usually sleep is after i eat. I try to keep myself halfway active throughout the day to help me not b sooo sluggish && tired. I hope some of my advice helps bcus i kno i dnt like bein in bed all day...im sure yu dnt niether. Hope it gets betta..congrats && gud luck!
  • Thank you! I'm just not working right now and I'm stressed over bills, ya know? So this being home all day crap doesn't help!
  • @katlilly yes mama...i completely understand!! I wuz in college for Nursing...thankfully my school wuz very understanding && allowed me to take a leave. My bf works most of da day so iam home by myself until around 5:30pm. :(. But i hate bein home...i dnt hav many friends who r home all day so im basically by myself..i try getting out but theres only so much yu can do. .Pregnant, tired, && alone! Lol.
