I am so exhausted!  9 weeks, tired and hungry every 2 hours..I feel like the newborn and have already gained 8 lbs. My first pregnancy was not like this! I got in the treadmill for 45 minutes the other day and ended up needing to take a 3 hr nap! I hope this ends soon!

Tiredness is very common in the 1st trimester. I would be asleep by 7:30 every night. It should subside in your 2nd trimester, but will return again in your 3rd trimester. I'm 39 weeks & take 1 to 3 naps a day.

Don't worry it's normal. Listen to your body if it says I'm tired then rest. If it says eat more, do that. If it says cry cry! I gained my energy back about the 19th week. ♡ツ

Not much. Get blood work done to determine if you're anemic; if you are, take iron supplement. Other than that, moderate exercise, plenty  of fluids, healthy diet, and waiting till your second trimester.
