    One of my first symptoms was feeling so exhausted...I'm not normally an afternoon napper...but I was finding I was having to have a nanna nap every day.

    The naps were only 10 minutes but they made a HUGE difference!

    I'm now 11 weeks and it's only in the last 1-2 weeks, that I haven't felt incredibly tired (it's been replaced by nausea!!!)

    Hey Monnie, yeah today i feeling like just curling up and giong to sleep i think i might actually go home from work early because im not getting much work done. When is the best time to do a HPT, i had some light bleeding about 5 days ago when periods would of been due so im just assuming it was a period i dont know but then this tired business has got me thinking maybe it wasnt a period.

    G'Day Chooky

    Test now in case it wasn't your period. Some women still get light periods a few months into their pregnancy. A friend of mine didnt find out she was pregnant until 22 weeks because she still got what she thought were periods. She ended up going to the doctor because she was gaining weight for no reason. She was a biggish lady so didnt notice the bump as much.

    I'm 13dpo today (and will be testing on Friday) and have been experiencing fatigue as well although not bad enough for it to be really affecting my work just yet. It tends to get worse later in the afternoon.

    Test now and let us know how you go.

    Hi Chooky,

    I haven't been there yet but I know that it is one of the symptoms that many women complain of! I hope that's what you wanted to hear!

    Actually I've just seen the other posts, I agree, test!!

    Cant wait to see what your results are Chooky. If you are far enough along to have had a "period", your hormone levels will probably be high enough to test now (as opposed to a FMU) ..... dont mind me, I'm just eager to hear your results.
