6 weeks and feeling super tired

I'm 6 weeks and pregnant with my first child. I haven't been feeling too Manny symptoms except cramping and feeling exhausted. I'm tired as soon as I get out of bed. I feel tired only being up for a few hours. I just feel that I shouldn't be feeling this tired so early. Is this normal?

You're not alone I'm only 5weeks 3 days and I'm tired all the time. But it's perfectly normal just find something to keep yourself occupied and stay hydrated.

Being pregnant is like running a marathon.  Your body is working harder than it's ever worked before in your life.  Try to do some (light) exercises & stretches for an energy boost.  But don't over-do it. Rest as much as possible now, before the baby arrives!

Yes it's very normal, your body is doing a lot of work preparing for the baby and making it. It may not seem like it's doing a lot but it is. If possible take small naps, sleep during the night, and drink plenty of water. Water helps energize
