It’s not uncommon for women to be tired in the first few weeks of pregnancy.  Growing a person is hard work!  Most women find it helpful to take a nap and/or go to bed a little earlier than usual.  Sometimes “tiredness” is more severe and turns into  “fatigue.” Women with extreme tiredness or fatigue, feel like their energy level is so low, and their exhaustion so extreme that they are not able to enjoy life.
