Pregnancy Info HOME

I feel sorry for you! I work 40 hours and have another child, but I can't imagine going to school at night too. Sometimes I got to bed at 8:00! I'm into my second trimester. I'll have good days and tired days.

thank you prissanna. Yes my sleepiness is getting worse, it's making me cranky cause i'm so sleepy. Oh well. I have to do what I have to to give this baby a good life.....thank you again :)

I am in school full time, have two part time jobs and a night volunteer job once a week. I KNOW what tired is. It sucks...I need naps everyday!! Try taking a nap at lunch. Unfortunately, nothing works but sleep and even that doesnt' help. I still wake up exhausted! I feel so lazy!

hi "itsapinupthing", is there any way you could postpone the cla__ses until after your pregnancy? It just sounds like you're doing too much. Pregnancy is bound to make you tired and you should listen to your body and rest as much as possible. My cousin is 35 weeks pregnant (and I'm 37). She has been having contractions already and the doctor thinks it's because she works too hard. She works 16 hour days and needs to slow down!

i am having my fourth child and over christmas i was so exhausted at 3 mths that i stayed in bed most of the day. i went to doc and was put on iron tablets and i am fine since. i am now 6mths and taking a rest at every opportunity as well helps!

how soon does sleepyness take... im soooooo tired but would have gotten prego this motn h and i havent even had a missed peroid but for some reason my bf and i both think i am... am i silly and just hoping im prego or what

itsapinupthing: take as many naps as you can WHILE you can!! I didn't start feeling exhausted until about 8-9 weeks. Not tired -- EXHAUSTED. I would be on the computer and start falling asleep at the keys! One minute I'd be talking and the next I would be drooling on myself like some sort of narcoleptic. lol. Doc said everything was fine. I honestly attribute it to work because I've been off for 3 days now not doing anything and don't feel tired. When I was at work, however, I would come home and go straight to bed for the night (I work a 7am-3pm shift).
