keep hydrated, avoid excessive carbs and heavy greasy meals and exercise some if it s ok with the doc, that tends to get endorphins going and will make you a little more alert and less sleepy.
First, remember you are pregnant. Pregnancy for many women causes lithargy, tireness. But if the doctor has placed you on a medication and upped the dosage, maybe your body is telling you that you do need to rest. You have to take care of yourself for the health of your baby. Use your fifteen minute break to rest and lunch. If you can go lay down and elevate your feet. Weather permitting maybe in your car. Hopefully this break will energize you. When you go home, rest. Let the housework pile up or someone else take care of it. Rest. And make sure you go to bed and get enough sleep. Consistency of going to bed at the same time each night will encourage a good night s sleep. Oh, did you report the side effect to the doctor? If not, why not? Many times side effedts subside after about ten days but remember each increase is a new quot;time clock.quot;
Call the Doc or a pharmacist!
you re pregnant and on meds? i am sure your deformed baby will thank you for that.
It s called Maternity Leave so LEAVE already! Geesh, do ya need a special invitation? Hope ya catch some clues before you child amp; the rest of us suffer!
