It's 3am and I still can't sleep

Welp ladies, sleep is definitely a thing of the past for me. I'm currently parked on the couch hoping that will somehow help me get some sort of sleep. I was in love with my beastly double sided body pillow but for the past few days it just isn't cutting it. I'm learning how to run on 3 to 4 hours of sleep. Please tell me I'm not the only one?

Have you tried Tylenol PM or Melatonin? I wouldn't normally take the tylenol just to sleep but I've done it a time or two ... and Melatonin was okayed by my OB for past pregnancies. Just be careful to stick with a minimal dose because you can get some pretty vivid dreams.

I usually am not able to sleep past 3 am. My sleep is all over the place which is tricky with working too.

Same here, I wake up everyday faithfully at 4am and basically just toss and turn until my alarm goes off at 6 -___- I've been trying to go to bed earlier but no matter what I do I get up a million times at night and can't sleep past 4! I tried Tylenol PM once on the weekend and it worked it just makes me too groggy to use during the week because I have to get up for work. Guess we will all be prepared for lack of sleep once our babies are born!

Been up since 2am..my back has been killing me, this side sleeping is completely miserable.

I'm exhausted to no end I just can't get into a comfy position to sleep long enough for it to even count. It totally blows. At least I know I can run on no sleep if the baby has a crazy sleeping schedule too! There's a positive!
