Hey all

I am wondering if it is common to feel bone wrenching exhaustion in the third trimester? I know it is common to feel tired, but this tired?

Some circumstances that may be effecting me are that at my last appt I was told I had slightly low iron. I also had my Rhogam shot last friday and my flu shot Monday. I understand all this can effect me but I did not think it could be to this extent.

I called my OB Dr yesterday... still waiting to hear back from him. I would like to hear your opinions though.

Thanks

Sarah

You taking iron tablets? They helped me.

But yep I am completely exhausted everything is effort.

No pG now but i can remember that it was an effort to even stay up right watching the telly
If you not on iron i would get on it hun as you will need if after birth if you are slightly aneamic now x

I am still waiting for that return phone call from the Dr... they say call your Dr when you have a question but it takes them a week to get back to you! Kind of annoying.

I have never been on Iron before.... what brand/name is best to take and if I have a low iron count how much do I take? Anybody have a recommendation?

Went to my first prenatal class last night! It was very informative and it was really neat to meet all the people due around my time.

I had to go get my own from chemist I just said I had low iron and was asked to get some - 1 a day the chemist told me to take.

Thanks for that. I will head in and just ask the pharmacist.

Thanks again!

i feel like this today, its not a word i would use really but i really am exhausted today, normaly im just tired.

Weird too coz i havent done much, washing, school run, normal day to day things but today its hit hard, cant wait for Jase to get in so i can go and lay down for half hour

I feel really shit today, totally knackered, banging headache and i feel really sick. Not done anything out of ordinary either. Maybe baby's gonna make an appearance soon. Got the castor oil coming tomorrow!!

yup completely exhausted all the time---sometimes more than others=== course i'm low on iron too and cant bring myself to take those stupid iron pills they're not only nasty tasting but give me stomach cramps big time and gas too ---
