Suddenly my under eyes have gone so dark, people keep asking if im not sleeping well. Im around 5 months and otherwise fine. Could this be a pregnancy thing or am i just that tired? anyone else got this?
Mine got worse when I wasnt eating properly due to nausea and low iron. Once my hemoglobin improved they got a bit better. Maybe mention it at your next gynac visit just to check iron levels.
Yes its common, mostly from tiredness, broken sleep and hormones. Drink enough water and rest when you can. They usually fade after the baby comes and sleep returns.
My mother said it happens to almost everyone, she just made sure I rested and ate iron rich foods. Nothing fancy needed, but if you feel very weak do tell the doctor.
