I do need the sleep! 😴 Every in the hospital was saying I was a trooper and was wondering how I was walking around so soon after birth. (As soon as they let me I was up lol) but it wasn't too bad, just need to walk around for a bit. I suppose Im going to get some sleep now. 😴😄

I had the same problem with my daughter. Even in the hospital the nurses said I was the first person they had who didn't sleep after a c-section. Eventually, I went into over protective mom mode. Finally, my sister and mom came and watched her and sent me to bed. When I woke up after the first sleep I felt so much better. I was refreshed and enjoyed her more. Tell yourself that one of the best ways to care for her is to sleep when she sleeps. That way you can be 100% during the times she needs you most. Sleeping isn't for you, it's actually for your baby. You can do anything when you know it's for them. Believe me, you won't miss her cries, and when your husband tries to wake you it will feel like someone is doing a 21 gun salute. You'll be awake instantly!

@zackemilymcguire I hope so 😃

@lana30319 yeah, I definitely do. I have tried to stay up too long. While I was still in the hospital, I drifted off for like 10 minutes at most, each time I did sleep. *Sigh*, 8 suppose I should sleep now. She's been asleep for about 1-2 hours now.

Oh no, that won't be fun. I bet that is how it is for a lot of Mommies! Don't worry, I bet you will get used to it really quick!! :D.

@erica_w14 i felt that way when I was in the hospital with my 2nd child. But trying to fight the sleep and the meds in my body. I almost dropped my baby. They took her to the nursery! So as the lady said please please please get some rest! You can't be your best and take care of her if you are restless, sleepy, or grumpy. Plus newborn baby gonna sleep like 17 out of 24 hours.

@zackemilymcguire That's what I'm thinking and what everyone keep telling me. But its like the moment I decide to go to sleep, she's going to wake up. I think my fiancé will find a reason to wake me up then or she will cry and I'll be one if those "no one can take care of her better than I can" mom's...😐

You better try to get some sleep! You will need it for sure! :D.
