Inliven is great for giving you a healthy and natural boost, perfectly safe too. Loads of BB members who have taken it (including myself) can vouch for that!

As much as it's gonna hurt the first time, get out of the house & go for a walk around the block. Don't have to rush, just get the limbs moving & the blood flowing. The hardest part is getting out the door, so once you have that nailed, you'll start feeling better instantly. I promise!

Just wanted to say, I soooooo sympathise with you. I'm feeling the same and find that I often need a nap during the day when my little boy sleeps. I put on a dvd for DD and have a rest
This is going to sound weird but are you getting enough Vitamin C?
I had a head cold last week and my Dr recommended getting at least 1000mg of vitamin C (whether I have the cold or not) as it will perk me up and get rid of the cold.
It totally did both and I have so much energy this week.
I thought that I'd get enough Vitamin C from my multivitamin but there's only 100mg in there, not the 1000mg that is recommended for pregnancy.
I'm just throwing another suggestion in there.
Hope your exhaustion doesn't last.

This is my argument about multivitamins. People recommend to each other the commercial, supermarket brands of multis and they are nowhere near good enough. I only get multi's from my naturopath, so much better. She also supplements the multis with any herbs I might need for a specific problem, like fatigue, stress etc.

Vit C helps iron absorbtion. so you can eat all the iron in the world but without any vit c you can not get any of it. Maybe thats the need for the high dose in pg.
I think feeling lethargic in pg is just a given, not to mention running after a 1 and 3 year old too!! Good on you for doing it though!!
An apple is a good pick me up.
Also the walk is a great idea, like Winter said. The hardest bit is the initial part but after doing it it might make you feel a bit more energised. Worth giving it a go (even though im sure its the last thing you feel like =P )
good luck with it and the rest of your pg!!
