Tiredness

OMG! I frequently complain about tiredness but this period is the worst I've felt in my life. I am emerging from it now. For me not to return to that level again I need some frequent me time.

Since having the baby I was not sleeping and was suffering from interupted sleep for about approx 9months. Baby finally started sleeping and so did I and my body had to adjust to having more sleep at night. But this sleep was not restful and refreshing, it was necessary but I remember thinking about when I had to be up a good hour before I needed to be up.
At half term I lay on the sofa for 3 days. On the 3rd day my husband recognised there might be something wrong! Typical.
We've now worked out a rota for household tasks which is quite helpful. Plus its birthday season in our house. The Season starts from the first May Bank holiday till the first week in July which is my birthday. It has certainly lifted the family.
I want to work in a yoga or relaxation period for 30 mins to an hour a day but it will have to be gradual.
I'd love to hear similar stories of tiredness and how to combat it.
Peace out
