Insomnia...

Is a big, nasty, bitch. I'm seriously getting pissed at waking up from a sound sleep in the middle of the night and not being able to fall back asleep. Especially when I need to get up for work at 5AM. Anyone else hate anything at 1AM in the morning?? I need something to read....

    It will be super fun for you when you have a newborn who wakes up at two in the morning and won't go back to sleep until five or six in the morning and you still have to be at work at 7 AM
    Isn't that what my husband is for???

    Bahaha that and "ATM machine" are at the top of my list
    Omg. I say that all the time... I didn't even realize it was redundant. God. Damn. It.
  • Ugh. I'm still up because tonight I felt 'stuffy' and had to turn the fan on. Then I felt like I was going to puke, so I'm sitting in the bathroom. Idk whats wrong with me.

    Hope you feel better. I've been up for an hour and desperately want to fall back to sleep!
  • The insomnia is hitting me now too. And some lower back pain. Blech. I don't have any tips for sleeping because I am failing at it too. I am a dork and I read books when I can't sleep, but I don't know if that keeps me more awake or not. At least I enjoy doing it!

  • Last night I was up from 1:20am until about 3am...I know I saw 2:38am so I am assuming I feel asleep sometime after that. Gave me a good chance to catch up on terrible DVR that I never watched last week. And then my alarm went off at 5am and I snoozed for 30 min. Its the worst!
  • Ditto to the pp who said she got better sleep with a newborn. I have found that to be true with both my kids. They slept in two to sometimes 4 hour stretches. By the middle to end of the 3rd trimester I'm usually up every 45 minutes for an hour at a time.
  • Good morning, fellow insomniacs! Reporting for duty at 3:39am... 
  • Insomnia came on with the second trimester. I wake and shift and sleep, wake and shift and repeat all night long. I am exhausted, sure. I'm also the happiest I've ever been and love this time. She is active once I go to bed and I'm trying to think of it as our time. Maybe I'll get more grumpy as I move into the third trimester...
  • I would say I wake 6 or 7 times a night. It is bullshit :( Good luck ladies xx
  • I can't sleep either! I am light sleeper anyways which makes it worse. If I am not getting up to pee a 100 times then I am just waking up! I also slept better with a newborn then I did in pregnancy. I breastfed and my babies would fall asleep nursing. It made it a lot easier to lay them back down.
