Why am I so tired all of a sudden?!

Why am I so tired all of a sudden?

Hi, just looking for advice really. For the last fortnight I have felt unusually tired. I sleep for around 7hours at night. I never used to feel so tired at bed, was just routine sleeping I suppose, but these days I could scream for my bed. I have noticed with this that I am more awake and alert when I wake, which is now around 5:30 and have to get up straight away. I eat healthily and do around an hours exercise a day. I have gone off some of my foods, one of which is chocolate digestives!? They suddenly taste like I'm eating a whole packet of mints in one go per biscuit! My body feels like its changing, well to me anyway, yet when I look in the mirror I still look the same, I feel my belly sticks right out, when it looks normal for me. My bust feels heavy and are slowly increasing. My weight is still the same. Have been on forms on contraception for around 10 months, so my body has already adjusted. I drink plenty of fluids too. Why is this? or am I looking too far into it?

For all those saying about minerals and nutrient defficences (did I spell that right? lol) My daily diet is normally;

Breaky; All bran and skimmed milk & a satsuma.

10am; satsuma

Lunch; egg or cheese or ham salad (large amount of salad, reasonable size of egg, or cheese or ham) & an apple

3pm; Bannana

Tea; Same meal as everyone else. either Spaghetti bolognaise or shepperds/cottage pie and veg or chiken curry (korma) or medium sized sunday lunch or oven baked haddock or cod with boiled spuds and veg or chiken breast with oven chips and beans or sauage with mash and veg or beans.

Snacks; used to be 2 choc digestives and perhaps the odd bag of crisps.

Drinks; 6 glasses of plain water. 2 glasses of squash and around 5 cups of tea with milk and sweetner. Rarely have coffee.

Is this getting all the stuff I need in me?

Hi there it could be that you have low iron levels, that might be why you are feeling tired. I think your hoping that your pregnant by the sounds of it. The whole loving chocolate digestives bit and now you can't stand eating them as they taste different and the unusual sign of tiredness might be a sign of pregnancy. So get a test done if I was you :o) Not all contraception is 100% protective. Good Luck.

Added: Don't be so nieve "it doesn't happen to me" people can get pregnant from taking the pill even if you have never missed a tablet. The pill isn't 100% affective it's like 99% so "Realistically" 1 person out of 100 people will get pregnant. There is always a posibility. If you do a test find out it's negative go pay the doctor a visit. Don't rule it out until you know for sure don't think it shouldn't happen to me think it might, it could!
