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.
I was never worn out with my 6 boys had tons energy! This time i am so worn out i even fall asleep on good TV shows i've been waiting a wk to see LOL. Hope this is a girl sign for me!
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
I was tired with the girls but no where near as tired as I was with my son
My friend has 3 boys then a girl. She said she was very tired with her girl, nothing with her boys.
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
