I am a healthy woman in my late 20's. I work the midnight shift at a hotel. It’s an easy simple job; a little too easy for my taste. However, when I sleep during the day I find myself not getting the quality I need. Therefore I want to sleep longer and it doesn’t do me any good.
When I first took this position (working the midnight shift) I used to be energetic and I worked out every (almost every) morning before I went to bed. Three months in the job I have found myself to be more moody, sleepy, and unmotivated.
My husband and I have also decided to try to conceive. So, I am off of the birth control pills for the first time in 10 plus years. I stopped taking them late September and I have noticed my sleepiness had started after I stopped taking the pill. Is it possible it is connected? My body is changing so much that it doesn’t know what to do? How can get the quality of sleep back and be more motivated?
