So very tired, so very randomly

[Cmzae]

I swear, throughout the day, I will just get smacked over the head with exhaustion. There's no set time or triggering action, I just get suddenly tired. And not cute sleepy tired, bone tired to where all I want to do is lie down and not think or move. Ah, well. Halfway through, and my baby boy (I'm still reeling over the fact that I now know I'm having a son!!) is growing all nice and normal. It'll all be worth it in the end, right?

Just a thought but have you had your hemoglobin checked? What you described reminds me of third tri with my son, the unbearable sudden fatigue sometimes, I found out I was super anemic. I went on iron supplements and felt much better. Just a thought x

I agree you might be anemic. They didn't test that until 28 weeks with me but maybe you could ask for sooner? I got that way a lot at that point. It's started up again for me now too but I put that down to nearing the end. Congrats on your son! Boys are so much fun!

Thanks for the advice, ladies! I'll ask my doc if we can check. She's been absolutely wonderful, so I'm sure she'll find if anything is wrong.
