I still don't nap much, but when I'm super tired I do! It's amazing what a 10-30 minute nap will do for me. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/post-baby-naps-for-you#post-17906 Fri, 18 Nov 2011 14:49:00 +0000 heffalump 17906@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Everyone says to sleep when the baby is sleeping.... but I'm such a heavy sleeping I'm too scared! She could be screaming her lungs out and I won't wake up. But sometimes just lying down is nice too. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/post-baby-naps-for-you#post-17905 Fri, 18 Nov 2011 14:48:46 +0000 T.H.O.U. 17905@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I am the same way. Once the baby goes down I suddenly find a million things I want to get done or just have some alone veg out time. </p> <p>Someone recommended setting a timer once baby goes to sleep and letting yourself do chores/whatever for 10 minutes but once the timer goes off you have to lay down and close your eyes. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/post-baby-naps-for-you#post-17902 Fri, 18 Nov 2011 14:46:36 +0000 sandsandmore 17902@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Have any of you found that after having a baby you can longer nap? I'll sometimes find a good hour or two block where I'd love to lie down and sleep. I can lay down, but my mind won't shut off and actually sleep. It drives me crazy! Anyone else? </p>
