I have to add, post partum, I felt like I could be an efficient sleeper! While pregnant, I can't sleep and overall, I never feel good. An hour of sleep while not pregnant vs. an hour of sleep while pregnant, is very, very different.
-
First trimester for sure. I was so exhausted, nauseous, and just overall terrible feeling all throughout my first trimester. That first month with a newborn with no sleep was rough but it doesn't compare to how crappy I felt first trimester.

@HLK208: newborn sleep. I was tired but not delirious in my first tri!
-
@winniebee: oh, I was definitely delirious after having E, don't get me wrong! I turned into on coming traffic while driving when I was 2 weeks pp. My brain was just DONE. I did have energy pp whereas I didn't have an ounce of energy during the first trimester.
-
Newborn sleep! At least I was sleeping during the first trimester!!!
-
Pregnancy exhaustion is bad, and even harder with a toddler- but the lack of sleep along with nursing issues and feeling absolutely lost and hopeless and overwhelmed with a newborn wins it for me. Wait, why did I agree to a second kiddo? j/k.... think I'll go cry now
-
Newborn sleep, especially the first time around. I didn't mind the first trimester fatigue.
-
Newborn sleep . . . Because it lasted so much longer! Not sleeping longer than 1.5 hours for 9 months is a looooong haul.
-
Newborn sleep because you *can* sleep when you really need to during the first trimester. You can get home from work and lie in bed all evening groaning! You can have a lie in at the weekend. If needs be you can call in sick to work but you can't call in sick to your baby - he/she demands your time and attention no matter how exhausted you are.
-
@HLK208: I think first trimester. I thought newborn sleep wasn't bad but that was because B got put in a napping schedule at the NICU.
-
newborn sleep. it wasn't *that* bad, though. E got onto a schedule in special care and kept it at home. But i didn't have much pregnancy fatigue, either. I napped a lot and DH let me sleep in on weekends, so I never got toooo far behind.
month 4/5 was way worse, though. I know it's not an option, but good lord.
-
Newborn sleep (or lack there of), hands down!
-
Newborn sleep. Either I have forgotten, or pregnant sleep didn't get bad until the 3rd tri-- and it didn't even seem that bad.
-
Nb sleep. There's no catching up or relaxing.
-
Newborn sleep or lack thereof. It got so much harder when I went back to work and was pumping. I felt like a zombie for months.
-
First trimester with an 8month old wins for me, with first tri and no kids, no work coming in second. Newborn sleep both times have been okay, thank god!
-
First trimester. I could not keep my eyes open at work, I fell asleep on the bus and missed my stop repeatedly and generally did nothing but work and sleep... all while acting like nothing was different since I wasn't "out." In the newborn days everyone understood why I was exhausted.
