Insomnia......

[Kendra's Mom]

I hate waking up at 3am and not being able to fall back asleep. Then during the day - I AM SOOOOO TIRED!!!! This is the 5th times during the pregnancy. I had the same problem when I was prego with my first one.... Anybody else? Any pointers??

Im always like that during the first few weeks, its way annoying! Some midwives and drs are fine with you taking a unisom every few nights...

I have trouble sleeping some nights b/c I can't breathe through my nose. Whether it lasts for 3 hours or 5, I usually just try to stay in bed in a comfortable position and keep my eyes closed. I figure at least this way, my body is at rest, even if I'm not sleeping and it works better than nothing.

I'm sure my mom would recommend warm milk but that grosses me out :)

Haha. must be a generational thing! The worst part of insomnia, for me, is I can never find a comfortable position so I feel like I toss and turn. Sometimes I go sleep on the couch and just the change of contour helps me get comfy and fall asleep asleep.

If it's really bad, I move to the couch too. Or take a shower. I have times of insomnia whether preggo or not and it's just no fun.
