18 weeks and lazy

Hi i am 18 weeks tmr and i am getting sleepier and easier to get more back pains after doing little housechores. I am a stay at home mum with a toddler and i find that i am becoming inactive. Am i super lazy and should stop being lazy now or is this normal?

Same here! 18 weeks and some days I will wake up fully charged and feeling like I can do a lot of things, sometimes I will stay up late in the night because I feel like I still have energy left to go to bed. But most days, my laziness will come in a flash and I just want to lie down in bed for the rest of the day. 😂

gosh hun, it's perfectly normal u are not just being lazy! get some part time helper it's very common these days, takecare of yourself most importantly listen to your body❤ this is my second pregnancy and I feel the same, also u can go for massage to help with the aches n pains. hope this helps!

Same here , I sleep in the day and then I will sleep earlier at night than my past days. Also , the folks say usually this pattern is a baby boy. Hehehe but then again, when I’m awake I try to do light exercise. So this is normal don worry ☺️

I oso in week 18 and getting sleepier and lazier..I'm having a gal😊

Cut yourself some slack! you're making a whole human! ❤️if money isn't an issue, can consider getting part time help if the back pains worsen. can also try heat pack on your back

hello, it could also be a symptom of lack of iron. You can ask your gynae to check your Full Blood count, Ferritin, Transferrin. You need not to wait until week 32.

same sis... even 2nd trimester in general Ive been really sleepy often and dont have the energy to actively entertain my toddler unlike how Im used to

You may feel backpain . That is normal. But if you have any other symptoms or if want to reduce pain. Meet your gynae.

Same!! Also pregnant while having a toddler. I feel exactly the same. I do nothing! Nothing at all.😂
