I'm the same way now. The baby needs your energy ans is basically draining you to develop. It ***** a lil but you will get through it..

completely normal.  I started getting sleepy around 4-5 weeks and even though it Got better around 14 weeks it came back full effect for me at about 17 weeks. I'm almost 22 weeks now. Quit my job because it was too much to handle being so exhausted. I literally sleep at least 14 hours a day. It's insane. For most people it gets better after the first Tri so keep your head up
