They say it is always better to sleep at night time because our body functions better that way. But then, I know a couple of friends who work on graveyard shifts and they didn't have unhealthy babies so I guess you just have to make sure you get all the sleep you need.
If a mom isn't getting enough sleep when pregger, the risk of having a premature baby is high. But if you're saying that you're able to get enough sleep and an uninterrupted one, then I think there's nothing to be worried about.

@Abana and Baha- I hope you're all right! I don't feel any difference at all with a good night's sleep and an uninterrupted daytime sleep so I guess (and hoping) I'm doing just fine. Thanks!
I'm also working on various shifting and my colleague who's also pregnant also had to endure our work schedule. I believe she's also able to get some good sleep during the day. Never heard any problem with her pregnancy at all. Last November was her baby's baptismal and the baby's doing fine.
I agree with the previous posters. It's ideal of course to sleep at night (as skin repairs itself when the lights are out! #talkaboutvanity) but if you're getting sufficient and straight sleep then that's fine.
