fatigue help

I am unsure if this is normal but, I absolutely have no no no energy. Walking up & down stairs is so hard. I've had to miss lots of work because I am just so tired. Prenatals & b vitamins do not seem to help at all. Any suggestions would be amazing! This is my first child I am 26yrs old.

Check for iron! This was my problem, I had none. I'm feeling much better since going on a course of iron supplements.

Also, if you want to test further, ask for a MTHFR gene test as about half the population have a particular gene that interferes with certain vitamin and mineral absorption. I have it and am on an activated vitamin B tablet to help as the normal ones don't do much for me.
