Waves of fatigue. Last pregnancy it got so bad I actually napped in my office a couple of times! :silly: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/early-pregnancy-fatigue-is-this-normal#post-2516641 Tue, 05 Apr 2016 23:24:00 +0000 MrsB2012 2516641@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Sounds pretty normal. I was super exhausted all the time during my second pregnancy. I ended up having low iron though, and I think that played a big role. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/early-pregnancy-fatigue-is-this-normal#post-2516618 Tue, 05 Apr 2016 22:34:20 +0000 2littlepumpkins 2516618@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It definitely can be, but pregnancy is different for everyone! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/early-pregnancy-fatigue-is-this-normal#post-2516593 Tue, 05 Apr 2016 21:56:04 +0000 MrsSRS 2516593@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Normal. But also maybe it's a blood sugar thing if it's only happening right before meals? You might be able to limit the fatigue with a protein sort of snack am hour or two earlier? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/early-pregnancy-fatigue-is-this-normal#post-2516538 Tue, 05 Apr 2016 20:34:05 +0000 catomd00 2516538@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It really depends. My fatigue was very different with both my pregnancies. Why you describe sounds normal to me. Growing a human is hard work! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/early-pregnancy-fatigue-is-this-normal#post-2516537 Tue, 05 Apr 2016 20:33:49 +0000 catlady 2516537@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Normal! I feel like that these days too. Fatigue has been on and off. Right now I feel fine, but at work earlier today, I was ready to pass out.</p> <p>I honestly can't remember what it was like for my other pregnancies but I think it was similar. Also some days will be much different than other days. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/early-pregnancy-fatigue-is-this-normal#post-2516535 Tue, 05 Apr 2016 20:31:32 +0000 avivoca 2516535@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It comes and goes for me. My sleepy time is early afternoon. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/early-pregnancy-fatigue-is-this-normal#post-2516528 Tue, 05 Apr 2016 20:28:04 +0000 stiletto_mom 2516528@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I know, you're thinking "duh", but I'm actually wondering if it's supposed to be a round the clock thing, or if it's on and off.</p> <p>I got reeeeally tired just before lunch at work. Power napped for 20 minutes during lunch. </p> <p>As soon as I got home, I lay down for an hour, napped for another hour, and just stayed in bed on my phone until dinner time.</p> <p>After dinner, I'm perfectly fine energy wise. </p> <p>Is it supposed to be like this? Or is fatigue supposed to be just tired the entire day?</p> <p>** and when I say "nap", I don't actually fall asleep. I'm like just listening to sounds around me. :/ </p>
