Is sleeping a lot a symptom of pregnancy?

Question

I dont know whats happening but i can sleep 10 hrs and still feel like napping by afternoon. We are ttc this month so my mind keeps going there. Could this be it or am i just tired from work?

I felt so so tired in my early weeks, could sleep anytime anywhere. It was honestly one of my first hints. The exhaustion is real in first trimester.

Looking back, those early weeks i was sleeping like crazy and didnt even know i was pregnant yet. It does ease up in the middle months. Rest as much as you can now.

Extreme sleepiness is a classic early symptom, hormones shoot up and drain you. But on its own it doesnt confirm anything. Late period plus this, then test.

Yes the tiredness can be intense early on. I was struggling to stay awake at work. Try to rest whenever u get a chance and dont feel guilty about it, body is doing a lot.

Pregnancy turned me into a professional napper in the first months haha. Yes it can be a symptom. Enjoy the sleep now because trust me later it becomes a luxury.
