Napping? Feel worse?

Anyone else unable to nap
during the day? My mom is here helping so I tried to nap and only was able to sleep 30 mins. And now I feel totally disoriented and sick and out of it. I haven't gotten much sleep the last 3 nights in a row so
thought a nap would help but nope.

The nap wasn't long enough. When you are beyond exhausted, you need closer to an hour/hour and a half.

I tried but that's all I could sleep. I have never been able to really nap

I always feel worse after I nap. It sucks because I really like naps.

I take caff naps and they are fabulous! I swear by them.

I'm in the same boat as you. I feel terrible when I sleep more than 2 hours and can't nap. Sucks because these bags under my eyes and getting too dark for concealer!

20 minutes or more than an hour!

so glad to know I'm not the only one who can't nap! I never could, even as a little kid. My mom would have me "take a nap" which really consisted of me playing with my stuffed animals in bed.

This...I have to sleep more than an hour to feel good after. I've never been good at catnaps since it takes me a little bit to fall asleep. Although the last couple times I managed a nap, I was out in less than 5 minutes because I'm so exhausted!

I have such a hard time falling asleep that I just avoid napping... I usually fall asleep not long before I need to get back up so that if I get up I feel like crap, if I don't, well, with 2 little a that's not an option... I just avoid them now and try to rest instead by doing some DVR/TV veg time...
