The head of the drum is traditionally made from goat skin, providing the djembe with piercing high-pitched tone and slap sounds (struck by the hand near the edge of the drum) owing to the thinness of goat skin (compared to antelope or calf-skin).
Why Am I So Tired While I Am Pregnant? No matter how much sleep you get, you will be tired for at least part of your pregnancy. This fatigue springs from the body changes and emotional stress caused by impending motherhood. Your body is working 24 hours a day, seven days a week, creating a new human being. That's enough work to make anyone tired.
Growing a baby is hard work. Your body will go through a lot of changes as your baby grows and your hormones change. Along with the aches and pains of pregnancy, you will feel other new or changing symptoms. Even so, many pregnant women say that they feel healthier than ever. Being tired is common during pregnancy. Most women feel tired the first few months, then again toward the end. Exercise, rest, and a proper diet can make you feel less tired. It may also help to take rest breaks or naps every day.
