Default I'm so friggin' tired!!

This is just a vent post more than anything, but if anyone has any advice i'd gladly take it.

For the last couple of months i've been getting progressivly more tired. I was diagnosed with iron-deficient anemia in January and started taking iron pills. They worked GREAT at first, but now i'm slipping back to being tired all the time.

The last two days, i'm ashamed to admit, I actually fell asleep while watching Emily. It scared the crap outta me, cause I can't have her running around unsupervised. I mean our house is baby proofed, but if anyone's ever had a two year old, you know that it's impossible to avoid all possible dangers unless you wrap everything up in bubble wrap! LOL!

I have a doctor's appt. next week for him to check my blood count again so i'll have him check my thyroid and also do a pg test just in case.

I feel like i've taken a bunch of sleeping pills and am fighting their effects. I HATE feeling this way! My gut tells me it's more than "you need to start exercising and eating better". I've been eating relatively healthy and like I said, I just feel in my gut that it's more than that.

Anyway thanks for listening to me rant. I'm going to go lay down now
