My goodness. I don't remember being quite this exhausted last time. But thinking about it, I do remember coming home from work and falling asleep on the floor in front of the television... I was doing 14-17 hour days at the time so I just put it down to being slightly over-worked. The main difference is that back then I COULD lie down and go to sleep as soon as I got home. These days I have a toddler that wakes up at 5am (at the latest), I come home from work exhausted after picking up an equally tired little girl, have to make her dinner, feed her, keep her entertained until bedtime, get her ready for bed, get her to go to sleep, get her daycare stuff organised for the next day, get dinner ready for Dwayne and I... THEN I can possibly crash out on the sofa. I might eat first if I have the energy.
I fell asleep during a telephone conference at work the other day. I also put my head in my hands and briefly fell asleep at my desk at one point. Really.
This weekend I have slept, and slept, and chilled, and slept some more. I feel much better! I even managed to clean the house this afternoon whilst Dwayne took Daisy to the rock pool for a swim. But I hope this tiredness will go away soon, as I pass the end of the first trimester, as all the websites say it will.
