Why is this so?
What happens inside during the yawning moments?

Stolen from somewhere on the internet....
Quote:

Yawning results due to a sudden decrease of oxygen in the blood and lungs. This can occur when we are tired, but it also occurs when our blood sugar level is low. When the level is low, a sudden burst of oxygen will be required to produce energy. This decreases our oxygen levels, causing us to yawn.

Yawning is also believed to be induced when the level of glucose supplied to the brain decreases, as in the state of hunger.

But thanks for the post.
Now whenever I feel yawning coming I will lick some sugar.

And why are yawns contagious - i.e why do we yawn when we see others yawning?
