Getting past pregnancy exhaustion...

cynrawr

I'm almost 33 weeks pregnant and I'm struggling to keep myself motivated. I have been diagnosed with Gestational Diabetes (I also had it with my first child). I have started working out (again) to help with my insulin levels and to hopefully avoid developing Type 2 Diabetes after I give birth. I was told that I have a 95% chance to develop it due to being very overweight before pregnancy, having gd multiple times, and having high fasting glucose levels. I have been having so much trouble just feeling awake in general, so making myself exercise is exhausting! Any motivation?

It won't last much longer, I guess that's the motivation. Did your doctor approve of adding in exercise at this time? Have you talked to doc about fatigue?
