Hi guys,
I'm slightly getting worried about my tiredness!.. at first i thought it was due to still having some excess weight from having my son last year and not exercising so i changed those, lost the excess lbs from eating healthy, taking vitamins and exercising an hour a day BUT i'm still totally exhausted i get 7-8 hours sleep a night so why am i still so tired?!.. as soon as i wake up i'm tired and i find myself nodding off if my sons napping.. just feel so weak!..
Any advice?!... or pick me up tips?
Cheers guys :)

Might be the hot weather , i feel tired all the time but i am 50 lol and post menopause which causes me extreme tiredness .
Have you had a blood test to check you're not anemic ?
As feelthelove says, have you a blood test? I was very anaemic during pregnancy and after giving birth I was so low in iron I had to have Iron IV's. I was always very very tired xx

Thanks for the replies ladies :) it might just be the 2 kids tiring me out lol.. i haven't had bloods since just before i gave birth (june last year) i checked my eyes they seem a healthy colour thats why i ruled out anemia.. but guess it wont hurt to see a doc and ask for some to be taken. I try to avoid the docs now as a few years ago i had really bad health anxiety and was in and out the docs all the time lol.. since then when i make an appointment and tell my other half he starts dalling me stupid and wasting my time. Grrrr.. baring in mind i haven't made a docs app for a very long time now well apart from talking about and organising a form of birth control!.. xx

Have you had a thyroid blood test as whenever there is hormonal upheaval like puberty/pregnancy/menopause this can cause your thyroid to become underactive. Weight gain/tiredness are most common symptoms.
You could ring your Drs and ask if you have had this tested and if not then I would def advise you to ask for this to rule it out completely. Its easily fixable if you do have it and nothing to worry about.
I used to work as advisor for thryoid advice charity.
Do you know if you snore? Could be snoring keeping you from getting restful sleep. Also, having two kids, one of them being only 1 year old, do they wake you up at night often?
