1st Trimester

Safe sleep aid?

I am so exausted...but cannot get sleep...Insomnia. I go to bed at 10, and lay there dozing in and out, getting up, laying back down...any help, ladies? I need sleep.

  • That would be a question for your dr.  However, my co-workers dr.  told her that 1/2 a unisom is ok to take for m/s because it relaxes you and makes you not want to throw up, so I'm guessing that it would be ok as a sleep aid?

    My doc said 1/2 a unisom with B6 was okay for morning sickness.  If you're looking for something safe to take to help you sleep, I'd call and ask the doctor.

  • Tylenol PM, I lived by it my 1st trimester.  I am just now getting past the insomnia.  It actually got so bad that my dr gave me Ambien but you get very dependent on it and it is hard to sleep once you stop taking it.

    I was having episodes of night sickness. My RE prescribed a pnv "premesis" and 1 unisom before bed. Thankfully the pnv helped so I havent tried the unsiom yet but according to my doc its safe.
