Staying Awake!!!

[JemRose]

Has anyone got any tips for helping to stay awake and alert at work? I'm struggling so much by about 2pm to keep my eyes open

Coffee used to be a godsend, but I'm steering clear of that! Got the windows open for some fresh air, trying to have regular periods away from my desk to stretch my legs etc.

I just can't seem to fight this tiredness! x

If you are able to I really recommend a short leg stretch in fresh air. I honestly would not have expected it to work but it really does, and for some reason also helps with nausea. Even if you are just able to go round the block for ten minutes that could help make you feel more alert. Especially at this time of year with the cold air.

Yeah I would say a quick walk outside or somewhere cool wakes me up and gives me a bit of energy back! It has got tough this week, I’m definitely needing more sleep... one friend of mine swears by afternoon naps but I always wake up more tired than I started - I think I sleep to deeply to nap effectively lol

Ooo no idea I can't sleep cos of my dd either. My first pregnancy I slept as soon as I was bk from work till I had to get up for work and juts bought food on the way aha. It's awful isn't it!
Lol lots of water. Plus your actually allowed a small amount of caffeine so one coffee would be fine. X
