Weakness, Shortness Of Breath After Hot Bath, Mom Of 5, Go Through A Busy Schedule, Usually Wake Up Tired. Help?

I just had a hot bath and got out feeling weak and short of breath. I am a mom of 5 with a 7 mth old baby. I have had low iron in the past but haven t been tested recently. I also usually have low blood pressure often around 90/60 but again don t have a more recent testing. My baby sleeps through the night but does wake up if her soother is out of her mouth or she becomes unwrapped. Sometimes my other children wake up in the night too. Generally, I wake up tired, drag myself through breakfast,homeschooling routines, lunch, housecleaning, supper preparation, and occasional out-of-house errands, etc. and fall into bed exhausted. I m probably not getting enough sleep either.

Dear
Welcome to HCM
We understand your concerns

You are definitely busy with all that household duties. But you are definitely a fantastic person who is maintaining a beautiful house with all that 5 children. Then you are supposed to be tired through the evening and through morning. in fact mothers of infant children are very tired. But your case is different.

Low iron could create trouble and BP of 90/60 also. Don't take any over the counter supplements. Consult a general physician for further advice. Also, if possible, appoint a nanny for other children. You might get some rest yourself.
Good luck. Have a fantastic life ahead.
