Last Month Sleep Concerns Posted: 05-13-06 12:31pm
Now this may just be a case of crash and
burn but just to be sure I figured i'd ask
and see if anyone else had/is having the
same thing.
Last night when I got home I felt pretty
normal (that is to say tired) but around
5:30 last night I fell dead asleep on my
couch. I woke up around seven and made a
little bed on the floor and fell asleep
there until about 5:30 this morning. I
got up played around on the internet for a
little while (probably half an hour) and
then fell asleep again until 10 am. I
made breakfast and went to lay down and
watch tv, around 11 am I fell asleep again
and am just now waking up. I wondered if
it's the m&m making me sleep like this
now for some reason, if I just crashed and
burned since I haven't really been
sleeping well, or if it could possibly be
cause for concern. Sleeping so much is
not something that i've ever done
before...

Tigres, it is hard growing a baby! Your
body is worn out. Sleep if you can, as
much as you want. Soon you'll be taking
care of a newborn and that is tiring too -
but in a different way. And very worth
it! ;)

My grandma used to say the spreadin around
of sleep/lack of before birth is just a
preparation for baby cause its going to be
the same thing when hes here, you sleep
when he sleeps...
Btw enjoy the napping I havent slept since
I had either of them and I still have 18
years to go lol!!

Okay, it's nice to have my theory on this
confirmed. :lol: I figured I was
probably just overtired but I wanted to
make sure since i've never, ever slept
that much before in my life. But I guess
nine straight months of being tired is a
little bit different than just 3 or 4 days
of it. Thanks ladies, I won't worry
about it now.
Jess, I thought about the whole not
sleeping through the night thing the other
day. Believe me that is my worst
nightmare. I'm praying that my m&m
will be a laid back baby and sleep for at
least 4 hour stretches. :lol: wishful
thinking I know. But i'm gonna send you
some of my sleepy time from yesterday.
~* sleep *~ you can have six of my hours
since I slept about 18 total in the past
two days!

Tigres, enjoy your sleep while you can!
When I was as far along as you I could not
sleep. I was dead tired, but I just
couldn't sleep for the life of me! So I
was worried once the baby was here i'd be
so tired I wouldn't hear her at night!!
But all is good, and she's now sleeping
10-12 hours a night w/o waking up! She
just turned 2 months yesterday, and has
been sleeping great....So it is possible
you'll get a laid back baby!!!
.P.S cereal does wonders!

Amen to that sister. I can't wait to
have this baby either. I need a break
from working everyday and being pregnant.
It's really hard in the last few weeks.
I can do it but i'm sick of it. I know
that the baby will be tiring too but at
least it won't require the same sheer
physical effort that it requires to get to
work and work a full 8+ hour day. Plus
i'm so sick of john q. Public right now I
could scream!!!
