Chronic Fatigue Syndrome

Chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS) is a common co-condition with fibromyalgia and predominately affects women. Perhaps it evolved from carrying and raising children for millennia! A lot of women with CFS are intimidated about going through the process of pregnancy, which of course adds more components of fatigue and other physical stressors, and rightly so. Although women with CFS do get through their pregnancies, it’s often not without difficulty.

If you are thinking of becoming pregnant, and you have CFS, this is a good time to evaluate your support network, because you might find that you need to rely on it more than usual. It’s also important to note that postpartum depression is about three times higher in women with CFS. Preparing a solid support team is essential. Lining up some help beyond just your partner for when baby comes may give you some peace of mind and alleviate the extra exhaustion that comes with anticipating fatigue.

Of course, CFS doesn’t have to just remain a resolute condition either. Utilizing some approaches such as acupuncture and staying on top of nutrition can help build stamina and health. Having a child is exhausting no matter how you cut it, or how you go into it, but paying attention to rest and different layers of support can help bolster as much energy as is available to you.
