sleep

Avatar f tn Then I went back to sleep at around 8am and woke up at 10am. Though this is only a one day thing, is it unhealthy for me? Or could it have been good for me considering sometimes I don't get enough rest? I'm probably freaking out more than I should but I need help finding answers. Anything helps!

I'm happy to cuddle and hold him but i dont want him getting into the habit of constantly being held, and don't want him to be wanting cuddled all the time, how much is too much? can you cuddle a new baby too much?
Avatar f tn As long as you keep a routine, waking up at dawn shouldn't be the cause of your tiredness. Naps are healthy as well, but you generally do not get REM sleep (the deepest levels) during naps, which is an important part of sleeping. This only leaves you with 5 or 6 hours at night to get adequate rest. I know what it is like to get jipped out on your REM and I dealt with that for too long. You feel sluggish, unmotivated, tired and lazy.
Avatar f tn I suggest undergoing a formal sleep study which is called a polysomnography. It will tell you a wealth of info. regarding your sleep quality. Your primary care doctor should refer you to a sleep clinic to help diagnose this sleep problem.

Avatar f tn I sleep better at night when I take a nap after work.

Avatar f tn I've been feeling like I'm getting to much sleep too I don't get to sleep 12 hrs bc I have an almost 2 yr old but I feel like i could very easily. This is my fourth baby and I've always felt so tired with each pregnancy but this time is the worst! I have an appt. Tuesday and I'm going to have the doc see if my iron levels are low or what else could be causing my extreme tiredness. I'm tired of being tired lol.
Avatar n tn When I was 18, I was only about 115 pounds at 5'6 and I was drinking about a liter or more of vodka a day. I knew I was developing a problem when my hands started shaking and I was sick to my stomach until I drank again. In my opinion you're fine, but if you ever feel that you are drinking too much, too often then try to stop and talk to someone about it. Good luck!
Avatar f tn You can also ask your doctor for a list of whats safe, and it will usually tell you how much you can take and how often.
Avatar n tn it depends, what are they taking them for and how long? The concerta is for ADD my daughter takes it and it's not good to mix it with anything. IIt' s like a speed.
Avatar f tn We are waiting for 1st trimester to done with also which is why this site helps so much. But i would sleep all day pretty much, after 2 hrs of being awake, i wanted sleep at 6 weeks.

1221258 tn?1267542429 I realize this is an old thread but in hopes someone is reading. I have taken 3 mgs of klonipin for over 25 years. Really. I went to one of the best Psychiatrists in New York and he clearly told me that I would probably be on it forever. I haven't ever abused them. I know I've accidently taken an extra here and there but other pros. have been fine with me. I have accomplished tons in the past 25 years. I am now in a new location and local docs.
10369646 tn?1418193617 I am 38+2 and exhausted 99% of the time. Unfortunately due to pain and being uncomfortable I don't sleep much more than 6 hours at night but do take a nap half way through the day.
405820 tn?1205272948 Start off by snacking during the day on healthy foods...drinking lots of water and trying to get as much excercise in as possible. Having 8 hours of sleep too is good....you actually lose calories in your sleep...you'd be amazed...If your a pop drinker, chip eater, chocolate fenatic... STOP!!! If you really care about your body and your situation you will do these things for yourself. Getting a ball for excercising is a great, easy and cheap way to excercise....
4867667 tn?1360246053 is this normal? I know aches and pains come with the territory, but how much is too much? Can my baby feel the pain too? I'm 18+ 3 AND I haven't gained very much weight, about four pounds, so I know it's not from weight gain. Should I go get checked out? I know I can't take much for it, but I really don't know if I'm supposed to feel like this. Thanks in advance for your answers!
Avatar m tn To rule out parasomnias you need to undergo Polysomnyography and sleep analysis. You need to take out time for further evaluation. Sleep with light on. Short term benzodiazepine against prescription will help you. I suggest you to consult physician or sleep specialist. Take care and regards.
Avatar n tn Hi! So I'm 7 weeks tomorrow and I feel like I need to sleep all hours through the day. I want to ask if that is normal? Or is it too early? I feel like it's too early for that. And what can help with it I'm taking pre natal vitamins and get 9 hours of sleep and I still feel tired. Please help! I'm still going to school and I don't want to get behind with school work with how much I wish to sleep.
Avatar f tn Taking some sleeping pills may help you get better sleep at night, it is not good for regular use so better consult with a doctor. I take Ambien,when I trouble sleeping due to irregular sleep or other distraction.
Avatar n tn Or you simply like the energy it gives you? Either way, you are taking way too much adderoll and your heart will eventaully give out.
Avatar f tn I know this my seem corny to some of you, but I never had a sleep problem until I quit the hydrocodones that I was addicted to for three years. So those of you that just quit, don't give up you will get through the withdrawls and feel like yourself again. So if you want to ask me a question, please do. Because I went through hell on earth when I quit. When to the ER 2 times. Experienced every symtom I think I could. Good Luck to U ALL..
Avatar f tn I've been the same way, I think it's either way. Some women can't get to sleep whereas others can and sleep even more than usual...
