    Hi everyone, I think this might be a daft question. Once in a while I can't sleep and I might only get a couple of hours. I never minded this before I was pregnant but now I wonder does it harm the baby? If I'm tired is the baby tired?

    No i think your baby will be fine, I suffer sever bouts of insomnia and at the minute its the baby keeping me awake but as far as I am aware there is no link to it harming the baby, I think as long as the baby continues to get its nutrients etc...you will not have any probs.

    Thank you! I found I was worrying that if I didn't sleep it would harm the baby and then of course it made it harder to fall sleep. What you said makes sense that the baby often keeps the mum up all night!!!
