Also, have a look at your diet. A diet high in simple carbohydrates can make you tired.

If your daughter is 2 1/2, it wouldn't still be your iron levels from that - your hemoglobin replaces itself over a 3 month period. I would still suggest you get tested, because you CAN take too much iron, and if it isn't your iron levels, you shouldn't take iron tablets. Also, try to get as much sunshine as you are able - this can boost your seratonin, and lack of seratonin can make you feel tired, as can lack of Vitamin D. Sunshine whenever it is available is a positive thing :)

You could be low on iron or Vitamin D, or any number of other things. It may be worth going to get a blood test to check for these things. It might be as simple as needing a supplement. I know when I am low on iron, I am continually exhausted.
