Feeling absolutely exhausted 17 weeks

[ttc126]

Anyone else?

I'm almost 17 weeks and I'm just so exhausted in every sense of the word. I am so overly emotional, so physically tired, still extremely sick. Any ideas of how I can feel a bit more human?

Yep I'm shattered all the time at 15 weeks. Nausea is still getting the better of me some days and I could cry at the drop of a hat.
I put DD to bed at 7 and climb into my own.
You're not alone!

I'm exhausted. I have a thyroid monitoring test on Monday and am quite worried my thyroid will have got worse, I'm so tired :-/

I'm exhausted all the time, too! It's making work unbearable.

Same here! Tiredness had definitely not improved ! Just try and rest as much as you can x

I'm sorry. This is very normal. You'll feel better in about 8 more months. Sometimes, I get a good burst of energy at the tail end of the pregnancy, though, when I start nesting.

I'm feeling the same. I don't feel quite as exhausted as first trimester but still tired enough. I go to bed around 9.30pm purely so I have a little me time after the kids go to bed but I'd be tempted to go at 8 when DD goes! I hate having to get up for work in the mornings these days and just can't wait for mat leave when I can perhaps have some day time naps.

Only thing that I find helps is getting DH to let me have lie ins at weekends as well as spreading out my annual leave so I'm getting a rest from work every 5-6 weeks.

Yep, I'm 17 weeks tomorrow, and I'm absolutely exhausted and super cranky atm. Still feeling awful from HG despite the actual vomiting being controlled by meds. So over being pregnant right now :/

I'm still exhausted, even though my MS is now gone. My growing belly and weight gain makes for a bad nights sleep so I'm having a hard time renewing my energy.

totally normal and I'm so sorry pregnancy has hit you so hard. All I can offer is what you've probably already doing, and that's relaxing as much as you can, and taking the help when you need it. Good luck Mama .

yes!

I finally get to the evening and I'm too tired to enjoy anything so best just to go to bed. I'm not getting any real time to myself and feeling a bit low lately, just the small things like reading a bit of a good book at night that keeps me sane I'm too tired to enjoy

finding people quite irritating atm, specifically my OH. also want to scream when people talk too much I just find it exhausting !

I'm 16 weeks and finally feel more energized. However a quick nap whenever I can is best! Just to rule out anything, you should get your thyroid levels checked! Best of luck!
