I'm in the middle of my TWW, so that's why I was curious. :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/pregnancy-exhaustion-amp-fatigue#post-139606 Thu, 26 Apr 2012 22:02:02 +0000 Running Elley 139606@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Adira: For me it started at 7DPO, so a week into my TWW. However, I did get a BFP the next day (at 8DPO...really really rare) so our LO implanted really early. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/pregnancy-exhaustion-amp-fatigue#post-139603 Thu, 26 Apr 2012 21:59:32 +0000 SusieQ 139603@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I didn't feel tired in the first trimester, just queasy. Now I'm 20 weeks and have taken a 1.5 hour nap everyday for the last week because I'm just. so. tired. I hope this is just baby having a growth spurt and it ends soon. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/pregnancy-exhaustion-amp-fatigue#post-139579 Thu, 26 Apr 2012 21:30:08 +0000 googly-eyes 139579@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm still getting tired in the second trimester, but I wonder if part of it is that I'm not in great shape, especially from being so lazy in the first trimester because I felt sick. But I am able to get a lot of things done. I get bursts of energy and I get things done, and then I sit down for a little while, and then repeat! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/pregnancy-exhaustion-amp-fatigue#post-139568 Thu, 26 Apr 2012 21:19:56 +0000 mrsjyw 139568@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Adira: I was out after work the entire weeks before our bfp! So the second wk of my tww! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/pregnancy-exhaustion-amp-fatigue#post-139375 Thu, 26 Apr 2012 19:40:52 +0000 heffalump 139375@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Mine went away, but came back in the 3rd trimester. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/pregnancy-exhaustion-amp-fatigue#post-139274 Thu, 26 Apr 2012 19:01:11 +0000 Rainbow Sprinkles 139274@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My exhaustion went away about one week into my second trimester. In my second trimester, I had TONS of energy! in fact, I am 37 weeks + 3 and I STILL have tons of energy! It will get better... promise! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/pregnancy-exhaustion-amp-fatigue#post-139270 Thu, 26 Apr 2012 18:59:31 +0000 hellobeeboston 139270@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have just started to feel less tired at 14 weeks! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/pregnancy-exhaustion-amp-fatigue#post-139208 Thu, 26 Apr 2012 18:33:25 +0000 MusicaV 139208@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My second trimester so far (18 weeks) isn't as bad as the first, but I still get tired. Some days are worse than others, especially if I had a hard time sleeping the night before.<br /> @Adira: I don't remember exactly when my fatigue started, but I think it was around 5 weeks. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/pregnancy-exhaustion-amp-fatigue#post-139147 Thu, 26 Apr 2012 18:17:00 +0000 sorrycharlie 139147@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I had SERIOUS fatigue during first tri, kicked in right about 5 weeks maybe? I can't really remember, it honestly all blurred together. I had to set my alarm an hour early to give myself time to wake up..rushing out of bed made me sick. win-win!</p> <p>i'm still tired in the 2nd tri, but not as bad. I can stay up later (til 10, lol) and get up normal time when alarm goes off if I have to. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/pregnancy-exhaustion-amp-fatigue#post-139037 Thu, 26 Apr 2012 17:38:33 +0000 Adira 139037@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Out of curiosity (I'm still TTC), when does the fatigue usually start? Do you experience it during the TWW or later? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/pregnancy-exhaustion-amp-fatigue#post-139015 Thu, 26 Apr 2012 17:27:34 +0000 winniebee 139015@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It went away for me in second trimester (still had bouts of being tired but didn't have that general hungover feeling). Came back around 30 weeks or so - but more in the sense that I felt I needed more sleep at night. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/pregnancy-exhaustion-amp-fatigue#post-139004 Thu, 26 Apr 2012 17:24:02 +0000 Boogs 139004@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>You should feel better by the second trimester. If not, have them double check that you're not anemic. That second trimester was such a beautiful trimester! Unfortunately, the third trimester starts getting a little tiring again. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/pregnancy-exhaustion-amp-fatigue#post-138957 Thu, 26 Apr 2012 16:49:49 +0000 Rubies 138957@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It goes away in the second trimester and when it does, boy, do you ever feel like a new person! I was a ball of energy! I practically pranced and skipped through the entire second trimester! But then, the third trimester shows up and it was back to track pants, and 8pm bedtimes. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/pregnancy-exhaustion-amp-fatigue#post-138952 Thu, 26 Apr 2012 16:45:55 +0000 duckduckkristen 138952@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I started feeling less tired around 12 weeks, but never got back to my pre-pregnancy energy (38 weeks now). The second trimester was definitely less exhausting, but I still slept a lot and got tired easily. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/pregnancy-exhaustion-amp-fatigue#post-138927 Thu, 26 Apr 2012 16:03:41 +0000 Running Elley 138927@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Mine is still pretty bad…I can't really stay up through a movie anymore and I am OUT before 10 every night, which didn't use to be normal for me. I'm 15w1d and it hasn't gotten better yet! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/pregnancy-exhaustion-amp-fatigue#post-138914 Thu, 26 Apr 2012 16:00:36 +0000 chopsuey 138914@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have fatigue on and off.<br /> Don't really remember it being too bad the first time around. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/pregnancy-exhaustion-amp-fatigue#post-138899 Thu, 26 Apr 2012 15:47:03 +0000 DillonLion 138899@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Mine is still hanging around (just a few days behind you, will be 10 weeks tomorrow), and I just wanted to commiserate. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/pregnancy-exhaustion-amp-fatigue#post-138888 Thu, 26 Apr 2012 15:42:07 +0000 mediagirl 138888@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It went away when my nausea did - around 10 weeks. It came back last week at 32 weeks.... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/pregnancy-exhaustion-amp-fatigue#post-138887 Thu, 26 Apr 2012 15:41:55 +0000 regberadaisy 138887@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>aww hang in there! For most it goes away by the second trimester and does come back in the third. For me exhaustion in the third was no where near as bad as first.<br /> I hear ya on getting stuff done though. :( My husband has picked up all my slack, hope yours has too! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/pregnancy-exhaustion-amp-fatigue#post-138884 Thu, 26 Apr 2012 15:40:31 +0000 mrsjyw 138884@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>This is the one symptom that has yet to go away for me (10.5 weeks)... It was the first sign of why I test before AF and has lasted pretty much the last 1.5 months.</p> <p>Does fatigue go away in the second trimester? </p> <p>I'm used to doing a million things and while I'm still working, I hate the fact that the house is a mess and I'm behind on all my usual chores and errands. But, I'm also glad to be able to rest my body. </p> <p>When did your exhaustion go away? </p>
