Could be.... that affects your hormones and that can cause it too.
Also, thyroid, sugar level, low iron and numerous other things. Really hard to say. You would have to do alot of reading and check out some of the symptoms.

Ask your doctor to test you for anemia. A high percentage of our people are affilicted with this condition which is basically low levels of iron.

My mom has it and has to take supplements. She said her energy levels shot back up after the first few days.

true true... i do it too...sleep that is..i have low i-run

[Mato Winyan]

My experience has been when I have symptoms like this.. they try treating one thing with meds... that give side affects.. then they treat those with more meds.. and you can see how the chain reaction is.

What I would try first is to assume it would be low iron... women really lack in this anyway... and I would increase iron in my diet and take a suppliment... ferrous sulfate (iron) is the best. Like I said .. do some reading about it.

She sleeps too much to find time to read.

Don't listen to 'em, dammit!!! Make a doctors appointment and find out for sure.

BTW, Looking at computer screens can tire the eyes.:)

I agree with jibbers...could be anemia. I was border-line anemic while pregnant...man that was rough. The iron helps. Also, cook your meat in a cast iron pan, it sounds crazy, but it helps. The iron in the pan will go into your food and give you more iron.

Another thing, you may be experiencing depression? I get like that sometimes...wanna sleep all the time and have no energy. Check with your doc. good luck!!

quit eatin' all dat turkey... lol

[Awful_Mnom_Woman]

Too much sleeping or tiredness? Have you checked sugar levels for diabetes? That is something we should all do regularly, if your doctor doesn't do it, ask for it. If we catch it before we are diagnosed with diabetes, we can help combat it.

Yes, see a doctor, that is the best advice. Me too, and my sister, when we were pregnant, we slept a lot....lol

[true_native]

Pregnant, diabetes, low-iron.......i would say that these three things is prolly one of the things for sure.......but make an appointment with your doc.....that is the best thing......find out now while your still young, and you won't have to "live" with it later in life when it is irreversible. Good Luck.

dang girl... i'm tellin all the fam that you're PG!!! :) hahahaha

You could also try more exercise as well. Keeping physically active promotes strength and an overall body good feeling..but I would still go to the doc first and see what they say... and if they cant find nothing wrong, just become more active.

I go through the same thing every spring and fall but that's because of S. A .D seasonal affectiveness disorder... once there is too much light or too little light, my body hits a type of depression and all I want to do is sleep...most of us in this household are effected by it ...and many others in the great white north... but we take care of that with lights and christmas lights.
