Q: Tiredness/exhaustion

I am now 7 weeks 1 day and my morning sickness is subsiding but my tiredness is getting worse i am litterally sleeping two hour naps three times a day. Then in bed by 8:30pm until sometimes 10:30am. This morning I was exhausted just having a shower then went back to sleep then got up and ate and laid on sofa then vaccummed up and had to lie down again.

I am on iron as i am aneamic but surely it can't just pregnancy or can it be.

Should I be worried?

Sounds completely normal to me. I was extremely exhausted from about 6 weeks until just recently at 10 weeks. The change was drastic when the fatigue went away.

I wish I could say that there was something you could do to help but I think the best thing to do is to keep going to bed early and nap when you can. Also, make sure you are drinking enough water, dehydration can actually make you feel fatigued and worn out. Make sure you are eating well and drinking enough water. It should pass by the end of the first trimester. :)

It sounds rather normal to me. I was super exhausted from about 6-10 weeks, exactly as you described. Once I hit the 2nd trimester, it got much better.
