HI Anna and everyone else. Did we all miss the "Anna is 2 months preggo"??? I slept 16 hours a day during my first trimester. I swear at exactly 91 days it stopped and I went back to normal. It is very common to be extra tired during the first few months of pregnancy. Hopefully you can stick it out long enough not to get fired. If work is really giving you a problem with this, maybe a note from your doctor might help. The important thing is to talk to your employer about this. Dont let them think your just "being lazy" or slacking. I know that if I had been working full time my first trimester I wouldnt have been able to do it.
