I normally don't take naps and I am good to go, but since I found out I was pregnant I am tired all the time. DH says its my body telling me I need more rest (eventhough I get 8 or more at night) so I nap in the early afternoon about everyday for about an hour or so. I didn't yesterday and was dragging and so sick last night. So today I may lay down earlier and sleep longer.

I try not to nap, because it messes with my whole sleep cycle and what not. Plus when i wake up i am usually crappier feeling then if i had just stayed awake. The only time I nap is when i'm sick otherwise. i just be tired. lol

Yup! I get up with DH at 5 and help him get ready for work and then I go back to sleep from 6-9.

I didn't used to be a nap-taker but I've apparently picked up DB's sleep habits (which are TERRIBLE, btw) and get only a few hours sleep at night and desperately need a nap at lunchtime. He can have his sleep patterns back, kthx!

Yep yep yep :yes even being preggo, it's hard for me to take naps b/c it screws with my sleep cycle and makes me feel really crappy when I wake up. Very very seldom do I nap.

Now that I am pregnant I try to take one when the kids are napping. I've been SO tired.

I wish I could, but kids prevent me from napping most of the time.

I :wub naps! They are the best thing ever! I wish i could take them more often, but my dogs seldom allow for nighttime sleep let alone a nap (can't wait for DH to be home and lay down the law... nap time here I come!!!)

I normally nap for about an hour, sometimes more if I am sick.

I wish I could nap everyday, it just doesn't happen. Sleep is one of my fav things to do.

I nap instead of sleep!!! My college/wotk schedule can pretty weird, so I come home anytime I have 2-3 hours of downtime and take a nap...I even nap in my car sometimes! So I guess three naps a day counts as 6-8 hrs. sleep? dunno. Will be glad to graduate college and be with DH:grin: on some sort of normal schedule!

I wish I could take them but I work all day! By the time I get home I shower, eat and about to go to bed.

I definetly love naps. Most of the time I am way too much of a workaholic to stop and nap, but I am actually putting my work aside in a few minutes to take a much needed nap. I try not to take a nap for more than an hour. My body won't bounce back into work mode if I'm asleep more than an hour.

If I take naps, I can't sleep at night. So, no naps for me. :)

I don't take them...when my kid is down for her nap and the other one is sleeping, I use it as ME time, even if I'm tired!

i take them once in a great blue moon. if i take one that means that i'm sick, with a headache (which i don't get during the day, mine come at night:lol) or just really really tired.

02-04-2008, 02:49 PM
I put yes, occasionally, and 30-60 minutes.
This was not a fact for me until pregnancy! Now I have to nap daily because I get so tired. I'm not sure HOW OR WHY since I'm on freaking bed rest and ALWAYS RESTING!!! :lol

Not only do I not have time for naps, they usually wipe me out for the rest of the day. I just can't get going again.

Occasionally if I am sick or had a very busy day. Never longer than 30-60 minutes though unless I am REALLY sick

I love naps. I think naps should be a daily part of our lives. Because don't awesome and busy women like ourselves deserve a nice and relaxing nap? I usually try to nap from time to time. Usually depends on my mood and how busy I am. Usually lasts about an hour. (If I am really tired two hours.)

i take the occasional nap, mostly whenever DB is around. he loves his naps. we usually nap for about 2 hours at a time.
