First time mummy here

Hi! I just wondering is it normal to feel tired all day during the first trimester, I’m in my 10 weeks rn. I cant wait for 2nd trimester but I’m afraid if I still feel the same. Because I don’t feel productive at all🥺

Hi~ I am a first time mum too, currently in my 12th week. It is extremely normal to be fatigued throughout the day, I was exactly the same, starting from around week 5 or 6, I kept wanting to sleep the whole day, not being productive, zoning out at work. It made my husband and I declare that we’ll stop at 1 😂 Just make sure u rest when u can, sleep early (I slept a heck lot, almost 12h on some days 😂) let your partner handle the chores as much as possible. It’s not easy growing a little human! And if this helps, at my stage I’m starting to feel less tired now. Remember, this tiredness will not last forever! 💪🏻

Aww thank you for the response! I feel less lonely knowing there’s someone else in the same boat as me!

Is it normal to feel tired in pregnancy? It's common to feel tired, or even exhausted, during pregnancy, especially in the first 12 weeks. Hormonal changes at this time can make you feel tired, nauseous and emotional. The only answer is to rest as much as possible. How can I get rid of tiredness during pregnancy? Prioritise sleep. Taking naps if possible during the day (maximum 20 minutes) can really help with reducing tiredness especially in the afternoon, but make sure you're making the most of early nights and sleeping in as often as you can!
