Was reading this Article”Women who experience sleep apnea during pregnancy may face an increased of risk of health problems, for both themselves and their newborns, a new study suggests.”
El7umdella, I slept pretty well through both my pregnancies but I did have the weeks were I just couldn’t sleep or when I did I tossed and turned. Some people do experience sleep apnea throughout their entire pregnancy and now it seems, according to research, it may harm baby.
I always found that even one cup of tea or coffee kept me and baby awake. If I slept, I didnt sleep comfortably. I always opted for ovaltine at night, gross, yes but it helped me and bump sleep. So word of advise: be careful what one drinks before bedtime. Bump might not like it!
I was never diagnosed with sleep apnea but being overweight in both pregnancies may not have helped. When I was coming round from my first C Section I was asked by the surgeon if I suffered from sleep apnea… Interesting. The article has made me question now whether in fact I do suffer from sleep apnea.
El7umdella since I lost 35 kilo I am definitely sleeping much better but who knows.
