Why pregnant woman always feel sleepy ah?
-
A few of my friends are pregnant now. They complain having to sleep a lot in the day, cuz they are always tired.
One of them works in a customer service call center. She dozed off while talking to the customer.
The other one dozed off on a bus, on the way to work. She claimed that she never falls asleep on a public transport in her whole life, before she got pregnant.
Another one just doze off at home in the afternoon. She was sleeping like a pig for many hours, even though she has had enough sleep the night before.
Why like that? Is it due to some diet or homonal change?
how to prevent that? Any doctors here?? -

I heard drinking too much coffee is bad for the babyOriginally posted by Honeybunz:How to prevent it? Coffee? -
just my 2 cts worth....
Coffee are best avoided by pregnant woman because of the caffeine.
Sleepiness is due to hormone changes, so there's actually not much they can do. Try to sleep earlier each night lor. When I was pregnant with my 1st child, I sleep at ard 9pm everynight and wake up at 8am. But not the same for my 2nd child, I couldn't sleep everynight....dun feel tired at all.
The best thing is to just stretch and walk around when feeling sleepy....walk to the pantry to drink some milk, or when in the bus, keep yourself occupied, but no books...more tired...

I didn't know that pregnant women can be that tired. My friend literally fell asleep when the customer was still talking to her on the phone. If every other pregnant woman like that... then employers might have second thoughts in hiring married women liao. -
Its an offence to dismiss a pregnant lady....MOM regulations...Originally posted by Honeybunz:(see the problems that I listed above)

Remember, when you're pregnant, every single thing that you do is not just for one person only. Eat, piss, sleep...

As for sleepy, think is partly because it is tiring as the little one is in the tummy, the extra weight and so on... -

That's because the baby is eating inside !
The blood stream from your brain to the womb area , causing the brain to be lacking of blood circulation , thus causing the mummy to doze off easily .
