Postpartum Depression

Anyone else getting 5 hours or less of sleep a night?

My baby is 4 months old and is a great sleeper. She’ll sleep through the night most nights. Problem is, I can’t. I’ve developed some awful postpartum insomnia and get around 5 hours total, but that’s broken up into bits. I seem to wake every 45-90 mins all night long, for no reason at all.

This happening to anyone else? Anyone else surviving on 5 hours of interrupted sleep?

Side note - I started an antidepressant about 3.5 weeks ago to help with anxiety (and hopefully this insomnia). I’m currently taking low dose zopiclone to help with this sleep issue.
