The last thing you would think that could help people, especially the weight-gaining pregnant women would be sleep. We know that the reason for weight gain is linked to their added fetus inside and also the food intake as well as vitamins and minerals that help the mother and her unborn child healthy. But now, some people are saying that sleep can help them get back their actual frame.
A new study done by Kaiser Permanente in California finds sleep may be just as important as diet and exercise for shedding baby weight. One study has found that new moms who slept five or fewer hours a day, six months after giving birth, were three times as likely to hold onto those extra pounds as were women who got seven or more hours of sleep.
This seems interesting and should be a good guide for pregnant mommies out there. So if you are worried about getting back your original figure, this little study should more or less be a great reference and hope for you after you give birth.
