Re: Fatigue
Sarha's advice to take little walks was very true. If you can get outside for 10-20 minutes at least once a day and walk around the block or down your lane, this will help too. Finding that time for yourself is very hard when you are the mommie. The walks will keep any possible depression at bay. Yes, this will all get better. And yes all this lounging around seems like a waste of time, but is a part of the side effects.
You can do it, and we are behind you. Please do try and get someone to help with your little people, so you have a little time to reenergize.
All the best,
