Yes, extreme fatigue is very common in early pregnancy due to hormonal changes. My mother used to tell me to rest and drink warm milk, but it is always best to confirm with a home pregnancy test and consult your doctor.
I recently went through this. In my first month, I felt so exhausted that I could barely get out of bed. It turned out to be early pregnancy fatigue. A simple urine test confirmed it for me.
Don't stress yourself out too much. Extreme tiredness is indeed one of the earliest signs of pregnancy as your body is working hard. Take plenty of rest and do a simple home test first to be sure.

Honestly, I get tired just from lectures, but yeah, early pregnancy fatigue is a real thing. If you missed your period, just get a quick test kit from the chemist. It takes like two minutes.
