I was super productive from about 15-37 weeks. Then I was super tired and just DONE. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-get-the-second-trimester-burst-of-energy#post-1703969 Mon, 16 Jun 2014 20:34:25 +0000 Mrs. BD 1703969@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I am 18 weeks pregnant and still waiting for the "Wonder Woman" effect. At least I can stay up until 10! After that, I turn into a pumpkin. First trimester, I was so so so exhausted ALL the time. Now, I feel pretty normal until the night time. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-get-the-second-trimester-burst-of-energy#post-1703739 Mon, 16 Jun 2014 18:12:03 +0000 FaithFertility 1703739@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@TheReelDeal: I'm right there with you! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-get-the-second-trimester-burst-of-energy#post-1703726 Mon, 16 Jun 2014 18:00:27 +0000 oliviaoblivia 1703726@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>With my first I woke up the morning of 11w0d and felt fabulous. It lasted until 35ish weeks.<br /> Same thing happened last week with this one. I'm 12w0d and honestly feel amazing.<br /> While I don't have twins I do have an active 17 month old, bought my first house, am running a gut renovation, working full-time, and preparing for a move next month.</p> <p>Hopefully you get the same energy boost! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-get-the-second-trimester-burst-of-energy#post-1703722 Mon, 16 Jun 2014 17:56:19 +0000 yerpie110 1703722@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I did, and I spent my entire second trimester studying for the psychology licensing exam - it sucked!!!! Took the exam at 8 months and luckily passed, so it was worth it in the end and the best way I could have ever prepared for LO. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-get-the-second-trimester-burst-of-energy#post-1703704 Mon, 16 Jun 2014 17:41:48 +0000 Mrs. M 1703704@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>During my first pregnancy, yes! Now during my second (now 33 weeks) I've felt worthless the whole way through! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-get-the-second-trimester-burst-of-energy#post-1703695 Mon, 16 Jun 2014 17:37:03 +0000 TheReelDeal 1703695@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>This!! People keep telling me I'll feel better. I'm 14 weeks today and I'm STILL tired around 9am and have slight nausea all day. I'm starting to think this second tri energy is a lie hahaha!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-get-the-second-trimester-burst-of-energy#post-1703530 Mon, 16 Jun 2014 15:50:13 +0000 Mrs. Pen 1703530@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>By week 20 I finally felt more "normal" and I would say from week 20-32 were the weeks I truly enjoyed being pregnant. But there was no burst of energy for me. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-get-the-second-trimester-burst-of-energy#post-1703527 Mon, 16 Jun 2014 15:49:03 +0000 CupQuakeWalk 1703527@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I did when I entered my 3rd trimester, but not my second. It was more of nesting than energy (so like, nervous, "get everything done" time of energy)<br /> I did feel better than I had in my first trimester once I entered into my 2nd trimester though. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-get-the-second-trimester-burst-of-energy#post-1703481 Mon, 16 Jun 2014 15:30:29 +0000 Mrs. Jump Rope 1703481@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Blue: yes! At 28 weeks I am absolutely worthless. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-get-the-second-trimester-burst-of-energy#post-1703473 Mon, 16 Jun 2014 15:28:59 +0000 Mrs. Blue 1703473@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Jump Rope: Duly noted: If I get any burst of energy, I'll capitalize on it before it disappears! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-get-the-second-trimester-burst-of-energy#post-1703472 Mon, 16 Jun 2014 15:28:49 +0000 LovelyPlum 1703472@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@BakerBee: HA! That sounds about right.</p> <p>I did not have a "golden trimester" at all. I did have more energy, but it would be hard to have LESS energy than I did first tri. Around 20 weeks, I did feel like I was able to accomplish more, even if I was still dead tired at the end of the day. So, I guess I technically did have more energy, but I still felt beat by the time it was all said and done. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-get-the-second-trimester-burst-of-energy#post-1703456 Mon, 16 Jun 2014 15:22:18 +0000 Mrs. Jump Rope 1703456@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I felt great once my MS wore off with Chloe, sometime around 16 weeks. </p> <p>This time I got a huge burst of energy around 13/14 weeks and was super productive. Then I was like, 16 weeks and suddenly super uncomfortable and tired. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-get-the-second-trimester-burst-of-energy#post-1703440 Mon, 16 Jun 2014 15:17:04 +0000 snowjewelz 1703440@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I feel so much better than my 1st trimester but not better than my non-pregnant self! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-get-the-second-trimester-burst-of-energy#post-1703371 Mon, 16 Jun 2014 14:55:53 +0000 Mrs. Blue 1703371@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Pumuckl: Right?! Normal sounds borderline heavenly at the moment. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-get-the-second-trimester-burst-of-energy#post-1703345 Mon, 16 Jun 2014 14:46:02 +0000 bushelandapeck 1703345@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>With #1 I did. I was just complaining to someone about this on my drive to work this morning. I guess it should be expected when you are chasing around a toddler, but darn it, I wish it would happen! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-get-the-second-trimester-burst-of-energy#post-1703337 Mon, 16 Jun 2014 14:43:50 +0000 Pumuckl 1703337@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>At this point feeling like my normal self again would be totally sufficient. :silly:<br /> I am so much more tired this time around. I did feel better as week 14 approached last time and hope it's the same this time. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-get-the-second-trimester-burst-of-energy#post-1703334 Mon, 16 Jun 2014 14:43:36 +0000 catlady 1703334@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I did! I got over my morning sickness around 14 weeks and had a really nice 2nd tri. I worked out 4 times a week and felt great. I started to feel bad (very heavy, pain getting around) at 33 weeks or so.</p> <p>Seems like I was very lucky though...! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-get-the-second-trimester-burst-of-energy#post-1703332 Mon, 16 Jun 2014 14:43:03 +0000 LBee 1703332@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@wonderstruck: Meltdowns are my go to lately. I feel like I can't communicate well with others right now and that I just default to crying. I'm a DELIGHT for my husband. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-get-the-second-trimester-burst-of-energy#post-1703323 Mon, 16 Jun 2014 14:39:59 +0000 Adira 1703323@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>With my first, I felt more normal, but I don't think I had more energy. And I've just entered my second trimester with #2 and I still feel tired... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-get-the-second-trimester-burst-of-energy#post-1703317 Mon, 16 Jun 2014 14:38:34 +0000 winniebee 1703317@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>With my first, I felt more like my self but by no means had MORE energy. I'm now 13 weeks with my 2nd and already feel miles better than I did 3 weeks ago. I'm still totally pooped at the end of the day. </p> <p>@Mrs. Blue: I'm also preparing for a move and its just.....yuck. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-get-the-second-trimester-burst-of-energy#post-1703312 Mon, 16 Jun 2014 14:37:55 +0000 twodoghouse 1703312@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Uh no, but you know how a twin pregnancy is!

I was hoping it would be miraculously different this time around! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-you-get-the-second-trimester-burst-of-energy#post-1703286 Mon, 16 Jun 2014 14:30:21 +0000 emg86 1703286@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Ha. Nope. I got pregnant this time around when my baby girl turned 9 months. I'm 25wks now and miserable. How will I ever get through labor if I have no energy now?!?! Sigh. I hope your energy comes back! I eventually did stop feeling sleepy allllll the time, so I guess that has helped some. </p>
