Had horrible night. No sleep!

hmjones1813

Not that sleep ever comes easy, but I was awoken in the middle of the night by stomach acid shooting up my throat and into my nose! It was so scary, couldn't breathe and hurt pretty bad. I then got to try and sleep sitting up, so my back feels great! Not to mention having tummy bathroom troubles right before bed. Thank god I'm off work now until he comes! Had to vent, nobody else understands. It's not that I'm not excited, but daaaaamnnnn, pregnancy can be rough! Only a few more weeks everybody!

I'm with you @hmjones1813 ... Sleep never comes easy; everything hurts!

laylababe3

I'm right there with you, too. 

I got home from work at 9pm and then tossed and turned all night in the heat. I had to get up for work at 6am, it was so hot and I was so tired that it literally made me sick! I threw up a few times before deciding to call in. Currently sitting on the couch with my feet up, trying to figure out how to tell work that I can't handle those late night shifts anymore... I'm not going to kill myself over a stupid call center job.

Glad you're off work and can relax a little. Not too much longer, mama!

Between inconsistent contractions All night, starving at 4am, and going to the bathroom every hour... I'm trashed this morning!

I had a rough night last night too...had to pee more than usual and then I woke up super early (for no reason) and haven't been able to catch my breath since someone needs to tell my little guy he should start moving down, not up! I know shortness of breath is normal but this has come on with a vengeance

I WAS sleeping a lot a few weeks ago. Now it's long gone. I've been having bad back pain to the point were I've had to take warm/hot bubble baths in the middle of the night or early morning, anywhere from 2am-5am. It does really help my back. I keep the lights off except for the night light. Then put on Relaxation radio on pandora..and let all my pain soak away.

As far as the heart burn., try not eating 2 hrs before bed. Or if u really need something have ice cream or cereal with milk. The dairy will help with any acid in ur stomach.

As much as I love feeling my son(FTM) move n having that bond. I'm so ready to be done being pregnant! I'm 32weeks and I have to keep telling myself he needs more time to grow. I gotta be patient.

•••Has anyone had any breathing issues also? Idk what to do, my baby is squeezing my lungs I guess n makes it so hard to breathe! Feels like I just ran a 10k or a 300lb man is sitting on my chest.

I haven't slept since the 1st trimester =(
Constant trips to the bathroom, temperature always bothering me... going from feeling too hot to too cold (though it's constantly 70 in my house), unable to be comfortable with a bunch of pillows- but can't sleep without a bunch of.pillows. I'm just not comfortable ever =/

candicejeff2013

Omg. Not comfortable ever!!! My stomach just feels so full and I try to get In a position that's both comfy for me and baby. I go from left side to my right side...then back again. I also have started sleeping on the couch which helps a little.

Ugh, me too! I'm just so uncomfortable no matter which way I lay or how many pillows I use. I am so miserable today, all I want to do is cry and sleep, but I have two kiddos that need me so I have to find a way to suck it up and be the fun, happy mama that I so do not feel like being today!!

Crying and sleeping would be such a luxury I climbed into bed an hour ago and had to get up immediately to DD who has had a cold. She promptly vomited all over my dressing gown, pyjamas, and the bedroom carpet, followed by the bathroom floor, toilet, and bathroom sink so that took me a while to clean up. Thankfully DH was around to look after her. Everyone is back in bed now but I can still hear her whimpering so I don't think I will be getting to sleep for a while yet - it could be a long night. If she doesn't keep me awake, presumably the insomnia, sore hips or idiot neighbour will (

I've been tossing and turning for the past few nights like a retarded walrus. It sucks that I've hit that point! But yes, the acid reflux at night sucks! It makes me vomit if it gets too bad!

Oh that's awful! Hope she feels better soon and you get some rest!

kelseyrayay

I know how you feel. After all those contractions I've been having I'm extremely sore. Like it hurts so bad to move and the medicine I take makes me sick so I've been throwing up. it's a struggle

breezymeema7

I was up in the middle of last night due to an allergy attack. It's too hot to sleep with the windows closed, but the air is so smokey with all the forest fires. I just can't win.

hjhaller

I haven't been sleeping either! Tossing and turning. My mind is fully awake and im so tired. Tried to nap and slept 10 minutes and woke up because I couldn't breathe. I feel like I'm going crazy! I'm so uncomfortable In bed . I feel like I have the body of a whale and I'm trying to move it around! Lol

carleym93

What is sleep?

dkizz82

I slept poorly from 1-6. Of course there were several night sweat and bathroom breaks in there. Then I took a nap from 8:30-11. So now I'll be all messed up again tonight. Thank goodness I'm a teacher and out for the summer.

archetypeblonde

Yeah wtf happened last night for all of us? On top of the usual hourly pee breaks I had intense stomach problems and sweat through my bra and underwear on and off all night. :-q

Rolling over takes me a few minutes at this point - it's not one fluid motion anymore. Between constantly rolling over to accommodate my aching back, peeing every two hours, waking up for a snack, leg cramps, and being woken up by SO at 2 am when he leaves for work, I get NO sleep these days. Last night, though, I went to pee and noticed some brown/pink tinged discharge on my pantyliner. It was the smallest amount and I haven't had any other reason for concern, so I'm not completely freaked out, but I did stay up for the majority of the night after finding it because I was too nervous to sleep. sigh. I'm exhausted.

That happened to me the other night, woke up to have a sip of water and dozed back off only to be abruptly awoken by it coming back up! Almost vomited all over DH lol are you on antacid pills at all?

kedbach

I seriously wake up about every 30-45 minutes to pee! My bladder never empties! Also, rolling over is impossible.. My right side hurts so much that I can only really sleep on my left anyways, but that gets so sore that I'm forced to be on my right for a bit! Tylenol and icy hot were working well before, but not now! I also wake up around 4:30 or 5 and can't go back to sleep... Baby is just training me!

I was up at 2am because my eye was bleeding AGaIN. Normal pregnant ladies have nose bleeds but I bleed out my tear ducts

You bleed out of our tear ducts?! I have never heard of this. What causes it?

leanne69

I find I have no problem falling asleep at night . It is actually staying asleep that is the problem.  Has anyone ever had this happen- I go to bed at 9pm and wake up thinking it is 6am and feel so well rested. I look at the clock and its 11:30pm! UGH. 

I then wake up on the hour having to pee, toss and turn, put on a fan, acid reflux etc. What I would give to just sleep through the night. Sigh.. 5 more weeks.

Same reason you have nose bleeds. Extra blood volume and thinned membranes. Your nasal sinuses and tear ducts are all connected. It really freaks people out when it happens in public.

I've had the same problem with acid coming up in the middle of the night. I try not to eat anything a few hours before bed and elevate myself. The elevating doesn't usually last the whole night though because it's not very comfortable. I still have it happen sometimes so my midwife suggusted taking papaya enzymes with meals and it seems to be working for during the day for regular heartburn so hopefully it works at night too.

hmjones1813

I have antacids and such but it's been such a rough week I ran out! So sleep deprived I forget everything. Currently waiting on a delivery from hubs. I think I've drank about a half gallon of milk today. Plus these contractions, my belly is done for the day! Hope we all have a better night tonight ladies!

aluapaniri

Ugh. Glad I'm not the only one. Last night I had such bad left groin pain I finally gave up on sleeping at 3am. I normally get up at 5 so no point in trying anymore. I hope we all get better sleep tonight.
