Hey all :)

Does anyone else get really fatigued right before/at the start of their period? I'm definitely feeling that now- I couldn't get up this morning, and I can't stay awake! I've had the same amount of rest as usual.

I do - it was yesterday and I didn't want to get out of bed for anything.

I do too. From my experience it seems it's being slightly anemic because of the iron you lose when you bleed. If I remember to take iron supplements or eat something with a lot of iron in it at lunch it goes away.

It's days like this when we should be allowed to stay in bed all day, consequence free. :)

Oh yes, and today I stayed in bed because of it...but every month this happens to me, no matter how much sleep I get I am still exhausted. I just read somewhere about this, I think it was in Fitness magazine-something about hormones causing sleep disturbances such as insomnia, or being exhausted.
