I'm all sleepy, what to do???

Question

I'm pregnant and I'm sleepy all day, I have to work from 9 am to 7 pm everyday and this is getting more and more hard. I cab barely keep my eyes open.

What can I do to stay awake???

Answer 1

you must take your prenatal vitamins.rest as much as you can.eat healthy foods and avoid junk that is full of fat and calories but little nutritional value.if the prenatal vitamins make you ill take flintstones kids vitamins instead.congratulations and good luck.if this doesnt help talk to your doctor and see what they recommend.

Answer 2

Sleep when you can, your body definatley needs it :) Have you been tested for anemia yet? Sometimes that can cause excessive tiredness. When I was pregnant, my doctor suggested that I take an iron supplement as the lack of iron may make you tired. I took it but I never could really tell if it worked or not, but it's worth a try.

Answer 3

Apples! An apple with the skin on actually gives you more energy than a cup of coffee without the burn out. Also make sure you are eating enough protein and high iron foods. Eat more spinach and that will help too.

Answer 4

Recognize the fact that you need more sleep and more food. Look at it like you have to sleep and eat for two people. DO NOT resort to energy drinks and the like. As much as you want to stay the way you are comprimises will have to be made.

Answer 5

Sorry to tell you, it just gets worse! I try to eat small meals 5-6 times a day rather than 3 big ones... That seems to help. But other than that, just nap when you can!
Very Best Wishes!

Answer 6

Try going to bed early if that do not work try taking naps on your lunch break. You should see the OB/GYN just to make sure everything is ok, Maybe you can take some Vitamin b
