Hi all! I am currently 11 weeks pregnant w/ first baby. I feel exhausted and I am currently not working. I go to bed early but have a hard time sleeping! How do u get some energy? I hear it gets better 2nd trimester??? Thanks, Gemma
Girl, I know how you feel. I am currently 12 weeks(as of today) and do work but I have to get in atleast one nap a day. Got to where when I go to sleep at night I toss and turn (and have crazy dreams) all night. Hoping also it gets better in the 2 trimester. Good luck
yes it will get better. try to drink alot of water. and eat some crackers if your stomach is upset. my obgyn told me to eat 6 small meal throughout the day instead of 3 big meals
I hear you - I was SO tired in my first trimester. Many pregnant women experience greater energy levels in their second trimester. It felt so great to have more stamina. You often feel rather tired again towards the end of your pregnancy - it can be hard to sleep and move when you have your full pregnant tummy. :-) I hope you feel better soon!
I'm a couple weeks into my second trimester and I will tell you for me my energy has finally came back. I was soo tired in the first that it seemed all I did was work and sleep. The thing that did help some with energy was taking a 30 minute walk outside. Something about the sunshine and fresh air helped me.
sEE MY FIRST TRIMESTER WAS FINE i NEVER EVEN FELT FUNNY JUST ALOT OF MOOD SWINGS NOW THAT i'M AT WEEK 19 I JUST CAN'T SLEEP ENOUGH 12 HOURS STILL MAKES ME MISERABLE, TOO MUCH SLEEP IS STARTING TO GET ME.
