My DH keeps telling me to get up and do something in the evenings, he goes to the gym and has said to me that if I go along with him and do an hour or so of gentle exercise it will help my energy levels.
However, I'm still in first tri, 10 weeks 3 days to be precise, and when I get home work all I want to do is eat dinner, sit down and then its bath and bed by about 9.30 most evenings.
He doesn't seem to get that I'm not just being lazy, I physically feel totally exhausted.
I see where he is coming from though, and I don't like wasting every evening on the sofa. BUT is it likely to help when its pregnancy tiredness, not just normal everyday tiredness?
I can feel myself getting ready to snap at him next time he says it, when perhaps I need to try it? But the thought of going and walking or cycling or swimming after a full day at work makes me want to cry!
