Re: i need sleep

Sadz i think this tiredness and the feelings of sleepiness is due to the change in ur body,usually this feelings remain for two or three months u have to take care of ur diet and do rest.

Re: i need sleep

u need to eat n sleep properly. go early to bed..around 10 and get up early around 6. get into a rotine and get some tablets for energy as well..ginseng or sometihng

Re: i need sleep

don't take any ginseng while pregnant!!!!

Re: i need sleep

I don't know if there is anything you can do other than sleep whenever you can, even during the day if you are tired. My friend was the same way throughout her entire pregnancy .... but she wasn't willing to take any meds or herbal remedies that could possibly affect the baby.

Re: i need sleep

It's one of those things that you can't do much about except give in to it.
And I'll tell you, it's not like you can sleep on the weekends and catch up......no siree! Pregnancy is no easy job.

Re: i need sleep

Oh wow Sadzzz. Congrats upon your pregnancy :) I'd say just sleep, it'll pass.

Re: i need sleep

Re: i need sleep

sleep, sleep, and sleep some more.

like everyone else has said - there's really nothing you can do about it..
your body just requires all that rest cause of the hard work it's putting in. :)
