Week 7 and wiped out - anyone else?

[maybabydoll]

I'm only in week 7 and I'm totally exhausted. I don't remember this from previous pregnancies, but then I didn't have a lively 3 year old to look after too. Anyone else feeling this? Goodness knows how I'd manage another 33 weeks of no energy! Am hoping for a magical second trimester! x x

I am 7 weeks and my boss has had to change my shifts for me

I used to work 7-7.30 (long nhs shifts) but she has had to change my shifts to 7-1.30.

My morning sickness gets worse in the afternoon and I am ready for bed by 2pm lol.

It means working more days each week but I know it is my best option right now.

I hope that everybody finds some energy from somewhere in the next few weeks

I've just started to get my energy levels back this week (still not great but so much better)

It's much harder when you have another child/children to look after. I have found taking an organic spirulina has really helped my energy levels.

I took to going to bed when the kids do as my older son doesn't nap during the day so I don't have the option of an afternoon nap. Rest when you can. you're energy will increase in a few weeks xxx

I'm 7 weeks and exhausted all the time. I've been off work this week due to half term so goodness knows how I'll cope when I go back tomorrow. Ms wipes me out too.

I've been the same since about 7 weeks completely exhausted along with morning noon and night sickness and all the other horrible symptoms! (I had it way to lucky last pregnancy!) since 7 weeks I haven't gine one day without spewing up anything I eat several times over :S and tbh I just feel drained! I'm nearly 10 weeks now so hopefully it eases off soon!

Thanks all, glad to hear we are not suffering alone I'm just amazed about how tired I feel. I did go to bed at 9.30 last night and slept through until my LO woke me up at 6.30. Going to do the same tonight! x x
