I'm almost 29 weeks and lately I feel as though I've hit a wall of exhaustion! DH thinks the same thing happened last time, but I honestly can't remember. I can barely keep my eyes open! Anyone else?

I was so, so, so tired at the end of my second pregnancy- and I don't remember it being as severe with my first but I also didn't have a toddler to take care of then. I was terrified that it would be even worse after the baby was born! And truthfully the first week was worse but now, yes I'm still tired, but much less than the extreme exhaustion of the third trimester!
Baby is 2.5 weeks old.

Yup! Pregnancy insomnia is back and so are the crazy, vivid dreams! Not sure if it's because I'm that tired or if it's due to the pregnancy hormones. I had the dreams my 1st trimester also.

I don't remember being this exhausted in my first two pregnancies but I've been really sick for two weeks and my sleep was awful for a while. For a few days there I think I was averaging three hours of broken sleep.
I'm finally sleeping better at night now, but getting like ten hours at night and sneaking in an hour or two of naps during the day. It seems like an excessive amount of sleep, but I'm soooo tired.

@Foodnerd81: yeah, good point. Chasing after a toddler certainly doesn't help! Congrats on LO2!
@Alivoo01: whenever my sleep is interrupted I have crazy dreams. I think it has to do with interruptions to the REM cycle? Hope you find some rest soon!
@oliviaoblivia: I keep intending to use my daughter's nap time to be productive. Instead I keep napping. I think it's time to come to terms with the fact that sleep is just worth more right now than laundry!

Yes at 32 weeks I am getting very tired - still not as bad as the first tri though where I could not sit down around 4pm without falling asleep! I don't remember being so tired last time, but then I worked from home and had no toddler so I probably just took all the rest I wanted!

32 weeks and I'm tired because I don't sleep! I almost dread going to bed b/c I know I'm going to have a restless night. Plus I have a 3 year old

Yes-- 35 weeks and just so tired. I've been way behind on getting the baby's things ready (hospital bag, laundry, nursery, etc) because after work and putting the kids to bed, I'm exhausted! Thankfully, we have pretty much all we need and DH is very helpful.

i am exhausted most days but it is because i have trouble sleeping. the odd day when i get more than 7 or more hours, i feel great. But i have been sick twice in the past month and my nose or cough are often keeping me up night and then my toddler started a lovely habit of waking up before 6am.
