| When does the tiredness go?
When I was pregnant with Ozzie I suffered very badly from tiredness. I asumed once he was born it would go but I'm still not getting through the day without a nap.
Does it last beyond birth? | | | | Status: Offline

| It did for me hun, probably until Kaysie was about two months old, she slept through as well so it wasnt that, 9 months of pregnancy, labour, and having older children to run after, it all takes its toll. | | | | Status: Online

I haven't had it done since I was pregnant with Beau. They took my blood in this pregnancy but lost all my results  . I need to go to my doctor so I'll ask them to check then. | | | | Status: Offline

| Imogen sleeps through and I'm still shattered and napping at least once a day but I lost a LOT of blood and I still don't think my iron levels have gone back to normal. I'd go and get your iron levels checked out hun xxx. | | | | Status: Offline
