Topic: Does it make you tired too? Posted: 11 September 2007 at 7:26pm |
Whenever I go out, doesn't matter if it's to music or shopping or coffee group, I come home and I just feel like lying down or sleeping!! Is it just me? Or do I under-estimate the amount of effort it takes to take 3 preschoolers out for the morning?

Yes! I feel good when I'm out but then get home and want to crash on the couch - my excuse is being preggy tho. Taking 3 littlies out would definitely be a handful, so no wonder it makes you tired too.

Its not just you, I am so tired after being out with both Andrew and Josh. However if I go out with just 1 of them I am fine.

I was a puree feeder, forward facing, cot sleeping, pram pushing kind of Mum... and my kids survived!

I don't find I'm tired so much, more just that it requires so much more organisation and time to take them all out. I didn't really realise how much of a big deal it was till the nanny started and I went to the supermarket on my own for the first time, I swear I nearly took the buggy out of the car

I know I have low iron levels and if I don't take my pills then I get worse.

I don't think I'm anaemic Liz, well all I know is that when I have first trimester bloods my iron is fine and then I have supplements in the third trimester.... but I am still bf.

Oh Glow I thought I had worded that badly. Sorry I'm not, I was only talking history!
LOL Kels and Laura! Actually I'm not as bad when I get home but then I kinda bum around (usually on here of course haha!) and then an hour later can't find the motivation to do anything so I go to bed and wake up an hour later (this afternoon was to the sounds of Briona helping herself to a few boxes of raisins in the kitchen, for which I will probably reap my consequences in the morning!  )

Same here. No kids yet but whenever I go shopping I come home feeling sleepy. I blame it on the air in shopping malls; there doesn't seem to be any! Cafes make me tired too.
