Is pregnancy effecting my workout or am i just weaker?

OP, I'm sure it's pregnancy related. Your intensity is pretty low, so I doubt that has much to do with it, probably more related to calorie needs and a shift in your biological priorities.
On a side note, regardless of the perceived benefits (or lack there of) of medicine, doctors, etc... I love the fact that we all just assume more people is a good thing.
Talk about coming out of left field. OP was asking about fatigue/strength issues. Not whether or not she should have the kid. What the hell man.0 -

Sorry, maybe I should have directed my comments more clearly. The first was directed at the op. The second was at the folks arguing about the merits of medicine/doctors/etc.0 -

Honey, are you dense? Pregnancy takes a huge toll on a woman and affects every woman differently. Just because your mom/grandma/sister/friend did something some way while SHE was pregnant. Doesn't mean you can. I got blasted by tons of women when I was pregnant because I stopped working at 8 months pregnant, while they worked up until a day before they were due. They didn't take into account I was working an extremely physically demanding job while they sat at desks.0 -

aw well i mean i understand that every woman is different but i guess that my main surprise is that i am only in my first trimester and i didn't expect to be huffing and puffing until my third lol but yes i get a lot of crap from my mom for it0 -

I think you're making a lot of assumptions and/or missing a lot of context.
You're doing something, it's just harder than it used to be. You see pregnant people walking out of the gym... do you assume it's not harder for them, as well? Do you think they are doing the same exercises at the same intensities they were before?0 -

Question, and I am 100% not trying to be a jerk asking, did you research pregnancy, aside from how one becomes pregnant AT ALL before you conceived?
Different trimesters of pregnancy come with various challenges. My "easiest" trimester was my 3rd.0 -

Every pregnancy is different. Don't compare yourself to others. Listen to your body. And to answer your main question, yes, it is entirely due to your pregnancy, so take it easy and don't push it0 -

So the answer is no, you didn't research what actual pregnancy entailed?
I am not trying to be a jerk, I get that you are going off of the experience of people you know -- but the internet is full of info. I legit don't know a single woman who has been pregnant who would say pregnancy is barely noticeable in day to day life. YOU ARE GROWING ANOTHER HUMAN BEING. Things wouldn't be "side effects" of the vast number of women didn't experience them to a degree that it impacted their daily lives.
You are definitely getting good advice here, but you definitely need to be reading up on pregnancy, listening to YOUR body, and consulting your doctor.

Every pregnancy is it's own story. My daughter had morning sickness through all three trimesters, and vomited with every contraction as well. Not according to plan. Still her pregnancy.0

I'm in the 2nd and it's ~*magical*~, haha! I feel like my old self again, except there's this bump sticking out and getting in the way of everything. First trimester was definitely more difficult with getting the exercise done. Now I feel like I can knock out my workouts and still do more if I wanted to. Hope you see an improvement in a few weeks!

Your role models are probably stretching the truth a lot little.
OP, your role models likely remember and are repeating info about their best days when pregnant. They're not telling you about the multiple other days when the baby was doing uterine kung fu and jabbing them to bits or when their lower legs were swollen and they had to sit around with their feet up or when the smell of bananas made them feel like vomiting. Take their stories with a grain of salt.0 -
girl when I got pregnant I was barely not even a month far along and I used to run 8 miles per day and as soon as I got on the treadmill I felt like I was going to pass out That was how i found out I was pregnant you should really take it easy because your baby iS most important then being fit just try to eat healthy and enough because when I was pregnant I tried to exercise and I almost miscarried at 14 weeks so good luck and remember the baby if the most important now0
