Can't stay awake I'm only 8w5d but have been finding it really hard to stay awake I don't no if it's just me but I was…

I had to have a nanna nap every day!!! Was so tired in first trimester. ;)

Normal in first trimester

Yep I was too! Complete zombie!!

I was the same. My dr told me to get vitamin B6 supplement and take it twice a day. Goodluck

That was the same as me in the first trimester I always felt so exhausted and tired... Not much changed and I'm now in my 3rd trimester lol sorry just got heavier and slower and more uncomfortable aswell as constantly exhausted

Yeah same, i was a zombie till about 12 weeks then felt good in the middle and tired again at the end when you get insomnia for no apparent reason

Feesha I work in a high risk job. They will just have to change your duties as you become on restricted duties.

The first trimester is pretty tough on our bodies! I started feeling better around 16-20 weeks, then back downhill at 32 weeks. Nap when you can - If you're tired, it's your body telling you to take a break! :)

I was like that. I worked 5:30am till 1:30pm and I'd come home and sleep on the couch. Totally normal and mine for better by about 14 weeks :)

I slept A LOT in my first trimester. I could hardly peel myself off the couch to do anything!

I am now off work for the next 2 months due to some things they need to keep an eye on but not sure if I will be able to keep doing security as its classed as high Risk job ect but guess I will see what happens

We were in Europe when I found out I was pregnant... I think I slept through 1/2 the holiday.

I'm 11wks6d and I have been soooooo tired in my whole life! I feel like I could go to bed and stay there. I was working 24 hour shifts in the disability sector, but I have had to cut back to 4 days of 6 hours and sometimes that is a challenge :( I totally hear you on the tiredness thing!

Totally normal. I work shift work consisting of days, afternoons, nights at 12 hours min at a time as well as doing on call. During my first trimester I was constantly tired. It will get better but in the mean time take as many naps as you can and try not to exert yourself out of work if you can.

totally normal :)

I was shocked at how exhausted I was in my first tri - every single work day I slept in the train on the way into work and again in the arvo. Simply couldn't stay awake! Great idea to check iron levels as per pp, but it's very common. Should start to improve in your 2nd tri.

Very normal to feel tired especially in first tri. Although it can't hurt to get your iron levels tested if u haven't recently :-)
