Now I know pregnancy comes with being tired and even more so with a toddler. But I'm really struggling come midday - 1pm I've been laying in bed most of this week for about an hour Rowan sits with me and we read a book or watch an hour of tv then have lunch. That hour of just laying there helps a little. But today was really bad even after I woke up making breakfast was hard enough. OH told me just to have a nap ( the reason I don't normally nap is I wake up with a headache)'anyway I got 'about an hours kip and it really helped my energy for a bit.

Is this just normal? Being pg and having a toddler

I don't know about being pg with a toddler but I have to have a nap everyday. I'm permanently feeling exhausted and it's not like I have to work.look after a litle one so you have my sympathies x

I dont know if I'm doing to much. We get up get dressed and I drive OH to work we ge back I do Rowan's breakfast then I clean the kitchen then have my breakfast then wash up. Play with Rowan then start working from home. In between calls and emails which is about 1-7 calls a day and 10-15 emails a day I clean, wash and play with Rowan do lunch etc. God I feel tired just typing this I need to stay up another 20 mins as waiting for my dinner to go down.

Argh god

Ive fopud this preg WAAAAYYYYYYYYYYYY more tiring cos of having a toddler too.

Its normal then. Does anyone feel like food is a chore? I can't be bothered to decide what to eat I'd rather I didn't have to but I do

yea i would say its normal.. i felt VERY tired with paige towards the end.. i used to have to nap about 3pm ish, and i didnt have much energy. im dreading it this time round deal with paige x

Im guessing its normal! Im not pg and still have a nap cpl days a week at lunch time. Seems to all catch up with me then... though I dont know why as im not particularly active in the mornings lol!

If naps make you feel better id try and have one everyday when rowan does. Does he still nap everyday?

At the moment he does yes. Just depends on how busy work is and if I can sneak it in

I feel your pain! I am shattered and can barely keep my eyes open today Feel so bad for Milo

Kely, its defo normal hun, and as you get bigger and less mobile its even worse!
my last trimester was spent in a cloud of guilt over not being able to kep up with Alice

I was the same as Jo, I felt so guilty that Aimee was missing out and bored because I was too tired to get off the sofa x

it is sooooooooooooo normal and guess what it lasts after pregnancy too lol im cream crackered and all because both my wee strumpets decided to keep me up all night

Yep, I've been absolutely knackeredthis whole pregnancy and as Jo and Laura says it definately gets worse x

I was always knackered when I was pg, god knows what I will be like next time round! Xx

i was always tired still am lol xx
