Any other night shifters out there?? Any advice on how to survive my 13 hr night shifts?! Can't wait til this exhaustion goes away!

    I pack lots of snacks and drink a lot of water. Try to get a nap in before work too. And this is NOTHING compared to the end of third tri....totally not looking forward to that again...

    Just found out we are about 5 weeks pregnant with our first. I usually do so well working overnight but for the last 2 weeks or so I've had trouble keeping my eyes open. I hope it gets better in the coming weeks.

    Yeah! This is my second, but with my daughter I wasn't on night shifts! Lol so this is a whole new world....not looking forward to that last tri either! At least it won't be the middle of summer like with my daughter.

    Yuck! I'm day shift but I'm picking up a couple p shifts next week to help out. I have never been able to get a nap before I work the first p shift. We'll see how this goes!

    I do nights as a nurse. I enjoy it more than days as its less busy. Just eat lots if small meals and rest when you can
