A. its a myth that if u sleep during pregnancy the baby head will be big. just take proper rest. afternoon nap is ok. bt dont sleep for too long. if ur pregnancy is normal. than keep ur self active like walking, some mild exercises after consulting ur doctor and doing Household chores. but yes u cn take afternoon nap
