could this be anemia?

Since the birth of my daughter 3 months ago, I have had to have 8 to 11 hours of sleep or I cannot get out of bed. I do not feel sleep deprived, as my daughter has slept between 5 to 8 hours straight through the night since she was a month old. Before her birth and even before my sons birth 3 years ago, I have always been able to get 5 to 7 hours of sleep and wake up when I need to and be fine. I am also nursing, but feel like I eat pretty good. In the last week or two, I have also noticed that I have a ton of bruises on my legs. I have not bled since her birth and did not really bleed a whole lot postpartum. I don't usually take prenatal vitamins because I forget. I am worried that I somehow developed anemia. Should I be worried and get tested? Thanks, jenny
