This is my first pregnancy. Is there anything anyone would recommend in order to combat/help with the fatigue?

@andrealee, that must've been a tough adjustment! I bet it's so exciting nonetheless! Good thing she'll have a big brother to keep an eye on her 😄

i have been on bed rest since i was about 16 weeks they told me i had to if i wanted to keep her in there. which now i am almost 37 weeks and thats way further than when i had my son. so shes a big blessing to my little family. and my son is just sooooo happy he will have a baby sis @rackle09

@andrealee, thank you so much for the advice. I'm definitely jumping on the water- I've never been so thirsty in my life! Wow, that's such a huge difference in your pregnancies! How long have you been on bed rest?

@desirechild, @bodaciousb6 napping it is. I didn't realize it'd be so exhausting during the 1st tri. I was feeling a little guilty about being such a sloth when it came to functioning on a daily basis. Thank you for the advice and reassurance!

@emileemoreland, thank you!!

@3harmone10, thank you!!

sleeep it away. it is going to come and some woman say it hits them hard. with my son i was on the go go go and i had a ten minute delivery. with my daughter i am due at the ent of this month and i have been on bed rest due to a tare in my aorta so i have felt every change and milestone with this pregnancy it has been such a wonderful most painful struggling 200 days of my life. but i have to say if there is one thing i cab recomend drink TONS OF WATER and STRRETCH as much as possible. NAPP WHEN YOU CAN,eat healthy. your body is about to drastically change. but if you need any support or have questions alot of us on here are still nice and are willing to help. some women on here are alittle snappy and cruel but we are not all like that.

congratulations!!!!!!

@rackle09, literally, napping. succum to the tiredness.

Honestly you're gonna have to nap nap nap it off.. It's my first too and I could not do much in the first tri. Don't beat yourself up its very normal
