To expect my 4th grade class to take naps, and for me to take naps with them, in the fall, right?

My gosh, I'm exhausted! Any tips to making it through the day? Right now I'm lucky since I'm off for the summer... but I have no clue how I'm going to function come September!

Its gonna be rough for ya girl. I was WIPED OUT until just a few weeks ago...just try and go to bed early and tell DH not to expect too much. My DH did nothing but comment on how out of it i was (and that's me putting it nicely, MEN!! )

I love that my little kids still take naps, i just wish i could join them!

I'm a teacher and went through it. I went to bed around 9 every night and didn't get much housework done for a while. DH knew that dinner wasnt going to happen, mostly because most foods made me want to throw up. It did get better for me around 15 weeks along or so. Use every second of your planning time to get everything done so you don't have to go in early or stay late!! I found snacking throughout the day helped keep my energy up too (and helped me not to feel sick). Good luck!!

If see your in DC, I'm in Southern MD!

Oh - I'll certainly bring snacks to work! Luckily, by the time school starts I'll be toward the end of my first trimester, so hopefully I'll be waking up a bit. I'll just have to learn to be really focused and to not take on too much this year.

Thanks for the advice!

I'm actually from Northern VA Just outside the beltway.
