Insomnia

I can't take it anymore!!!  I have gotten insomnia during the last month or so in both my previous pregnancies and it has been going on for a week now with this LO.  I get up around 3:30-4am and cannot go back to sleep.  I have 2 other kids, so it's not like I can just sleep all day or nap whenever I want to or even go to bed super early.  I've been up for 5.5hrs now and have ran, made pancakes and eggs for my kids and DH before school/work, showered, watched my DVR'd Grey's Anatomy and Project Runway from last night and it's only 9:15am!!!!  I'm seriously starting to fade, but with a 2yr old, there is nothing I can do about it.

Anyone else experiencing this "lovely" late pregnancy symptom?  I can't wait to have this baby already so I can ship him off to the nursery at the hospital and hopefully get 2 good nights of rest!!!!

Re: Insomnia

  • Ugggh, I'm sorry!  I'm not having this, but my co-worker that's due the same day as me is, and she says it's so miserable.  She just looks wiped everyday, and has started coming into the office crazy early so she can leave early.

  • I'm not sleeping but I am not sure its insomnia (I'm an insomniac non-pregnant).  I just have to get up like 5 times to pee every night and I am constantly waking up with sore hips and numb arms/shoulders.  I'm a wreck at work.  I am planning on sleeping (as much as I can) all day either tomorrow or Sunday just to catch up.

    I hope you get some rest soon!

  • Ugh me!!! Getting up to pee around 2:30 or so and not being able to fall back asleep easily for about an hour or so only to hear my alarm at 5:30. I agree that having an almost two year old myself doesn't make rest easy......
