How many hours of sleep is required during pregnancy?
Im in my second trimester and honestly so sleepy all the time, i nap in afternoon plus full night and still feel tired. Is sleeping this much normal or am i overdoing it? just want to know whats actually needed now.
Aim for 8 hours but I know it's hard with work. I started sleeping a little earlier and grabbing short rests on weekends. Even 7 solid hours plus a small day nap makes a big difference.
Roughly 8 hours ma, and rest in the afternoon if you can. My mother always insisted on a midday nap during pregnancy. Listen to your body, it'll tell you when it needs rest.
Around 8 is ideal but dont stress if some nights are rough, that's so normal. The anxiety kept me up too. A short walk, less screen at night and a fixed routine helped me wind down.
Try for around 7-9 hours, though honestly good luck once the bump and bathroom trips begin haha. I started napping in the day to make up. Sleep all you can now, after delivery it becomes a luxury.
