Overdosing On Sleep

[JaidennsMommi]

Is it bad to sleep too much???
Im 38.5 weeks and today when i woke up i thought it was like 10 or 11, it was after 2 pm!!!!
Well i got up and after being awake for an hour or so i felt soooo tired and took a nap for about an hour or a lil more....now its 7:30 and im feeling tired as if i havent slept....is this normal? Or bad at all???

Have you had iron levels checked lately? If not call your doc in the am and tell them and ask if they can check because if your blood is low during labor you can't get an epidural.

It's definitely normal to be tired, but if you don't get up and walk around, you'll have a hard painful labor

I recommend all the sleep you can get right now.
