So since I've been pregnant, I sleep a whoooole lot. I was concerned though, that since I don't eat during those hours, will it starve my baby? (considering when I'm awake I eat like every hour)

No, you have nothing to worry about. Being tired, more than normal, is common pregnancy. If, however, you are not functioning well throughout the day... for a period, due to being extremely tired, check with you doctor.

You would have to be extremely deficient in your intake before it would be of concern to baby and you would notice health concerns in yourself first.

Since you are eating often while awake, rest assured baby will be fine.
