I am exhausted all the time, but then I have 6 more to run around after and I am not as young as I was!!! But it likely is a sign it is a boy!!!

I dont know what Im having either but I was no where near as tired with my girls as I am now!! Seriously just almost fell asleep at my desk! Lol, of course I do have two children now and work full time so that could contribute also!!

I dont remember being tired with DS1 but DS2 I was exhausted. I would take 3 hr naps when DS1 would take his 3hr nap - with this pregnancy (DD) I was tired but I dont think as much as DS2 but I would still take naps in the day so was tired enough..

I am so tired with this pregnancy which is a girl, but I also have insomnia so that could e part of the reason. I don't remember being this tired until the last trimester with my boys.

My mom told me when she was pregnant with me the biggest thing she could remember was she was exhausted. She said she remembers laying on the couch dozing off while my brother and sister played. I think a lot plays into your lifestyle and what all you do. I have days where I am more tired than others.

When pg with DD1 I was constantly in a semi-coma, couldn't wake up in the morning and took at least one long nap during the day.
DD2-dominant symptom was metalic taste in my mouth, not sleepiness
DD3-I was tired, but nothing as extreme like with DD1, good night sleep did the trick

I was exhausted with all my pregnancies, though I think my first son (second pregnancy) was the worst. Then again, after you have 2 kids, the 3rd and 4th pregnancies don't leave much time for napping! I think I fell asleep as soon as I hit the pillow with all of them.

This one is the worst for exhaustion. BUT, I have a 3.5 year old and an 18-month old who doesn't sleep thru the night! It's bound to catch up eventually. But this one is a girl. So I have to say I have been more tired with her. I felt pretty good with my boys.

With my first 2 boys I wasn't ever tired, with DS3 I was exhausted everyday and needed a nap each afternoon, with this pregnancy I am SUPER exhausted! I don't know the sex yet (probably a boy because that is all we seem to make) but I really don't think it has much to do with it, I think it is more that I now have 3 kids to chase around and I am 6 years older than I was with DS1

with all my boys i have been tired but never had a chance to relax as i worked full time hours and had the house to run etc. i have severe iron deficiency and found that as long as i took my supps i wasnt too bad
this time i have just been completely wiped out - i quit my job a few months ago too so i dont have work to worry about this time but i find i am completely exhausted and will fall asleep if given the chance which is completely out of character for me

baby's gender is unknown this time though
