I've taken ambient pregnant and not pregnant and I feel that way every time I took it! I swear! when I went into labor for some reason they gave me ambien, I asked them not too BC I remember how it made me feel and my midwife assured Me it would help me sleep and not make me feel loopy. but it did. I never got use to it. I Dont take it anymore and I wouldn't take it again

Hi!:) I was given ambiance when I was induced with my first son. I totally agree it made me feel loopy, completely knocked me out For the night, and I barely remember anything from the night before! Then having to wake up and start the induction process was crazy because I wasn't alert. Bottom line I think some docs will give it if insomnia is a big issue but if u don't like how it makes u feel definitely have them switch it. Otherwise every time u take it you'll be like omg what happened last night hahaha
