Insomnia!?!

HeatherIconHeatherIcon member
in TTC after 35

Am I the only one who can't sleep?? I am supposed to be resting and nurturing my little seeds--but I am a nervous bundle of energy. I was up until 3:45 am yesterday and it is 11:06 now--as I type this, not a sleepy bone in my body.

I used to be such a good little sleeper too...this happened during my first IVF 2ww.

Is anyone else impacted by insomnia?? Super Angry

    Yes, ma'am.  

     And hello, board.  I'm 36, about to turn 37, and DH is 40.  We just started TTC this month after having had to put off for years due to financial and medical issues.

    I too get insomnia from anxiety. It's awful! Best to try to sleep anyway so your body gets the rest.

    I definitely don't sleep well when I'm anxious, which seems more often than not lately.

    I hope you find some rest this week, and that your embies are snuggling in nicely.

    OH  yeah, I suffer horribly from insomnia, mine is usually stress related, I can't seem to find a good outlet to get my stress off of me!  I don't have a cure other than taking nighty nighty meds that make you feel worse the next day and I am sure you don't want to take them anyway right now!  I do hope you finally get tired enough to catch a few hours of sleep!
