Two months after delivery, broken sleep at night from feeding and frequent waking often catches up during the day, so falling into a deep sleep while your body recovers is very common. Low iron or thyroid levels after delivery can also make daytime sleepiness more noticeable than ordinary tiredness.
Next Steps
Try to rest or nap when your baby naps, and share night feeds or diaper changes with your partner or family where you can. A simple blood test for haemoglobin and thyroid will rule out a treatable cause if this feels like more than normal exhaustion.
Health Tips
Please see your gynaecologist soon if you feel breathless, your heart races, your mood is very low, or you are struggling to stay alert enough to care for your baby safely.
