Help...Is this normal in pregnancy??????

[mzzgirl]

I will be 28 weeks pregnant on monday with my first child. The last week I have been very tired all the time. Aching muscles and feeling very fatigued. I don't have a fever. Just doing daily things- getting off the couch to do the dishes leaves me feeling very tired. Is this normal??? Has anyone else experienced this kind of fatigue in pregnancy at this stage???

I had such bad fatigue during my first pregnancy that I could have sworn that I developed narcalespy!  I basically only woke up long enough to eat.
This time around I have good days and bad days, so yeah, I think it's probably normal to not feel motivated enough to get off of the couch.
I know it's weird, but I've found that if you can find a stool tall enough, that it's easier to do dishes while sitting down.  it sounds crazy but I feel better at the end of the day knowing that I got at least something accomplished.

I am 26w today and for the last few days I have been extremely fatigued and have had no appetite. I've been worried about it too because I have been feeling fine since 14 weeks and now all of a sudden I can barely keep my eyes open. Sorry I can't help on if it's normal or not. Just wanted to let you know youre not alone.
