Third Tri Exhaustion

[lauren170]

I got a bad cold at 33 weeks and since then I've had no energy and want to nap all if the time. I'm 34+ weeks now. Is this how it's going to be until the end?

I am right there with you. I am so tired.

I have good days and bad days. Now that I am 39 weeks I actually have a bit more energy...it's very weird!

My third tri exhaustion has been way worse than first tri ever was.  I have had occasional bursts of energy, so I take advantage of those while I can and just try to get as much rest as possible.

I have no energy, and am constantly uncomfortable or hurting. I am not loving this stage of pregnancy at all.

Story of my life lately. All I want to do is sleep.

I felt great for the first part of third tri and it was like I hit a brick wall last week. I'm propping my head up as I type this So tired....

I can rally, but self-starting and finishing projects are not my forte these days.

I'm starting to get that really tried feeling, especially after work I dont want to do ANYTHING. All I want to do is sit in bed and watch TV.

I need a nap most days now. I've almost fallen asleep at work a couple times, too!

[Stingyshark]

I am tired all the time, but can't sleep. It's horrible.

I am the least productive I have ever been in my life. It's bad. If DH stays married to me after this, I will be lucky. Even thinking about a to do list makes me take a nap.

Ditto.

I had a bad cold for almost 2 months of third trimester. It was miserable. Once it cleared I've had bursts of energy. Some days I can't see straight. Other days I'll steam clean all the carpets in the house or something. Sleep when you can. Dow whatever it takes. Insomnia sucks. (I've been up since four today after going down at midnight. It's pretty normal these days).

Yes.

Your nesting instinct will probably begin to override it soon though, so things will still get accomplished
