Can you sleep?

I can't exactly pinpoint when it started, probably a few days before I got my bfp, but I am having a really hard time getting to sleep anymore. We're going on almost two weeks where I toss and turn for over an hour (last night was 3-4 hours) before I fall into a fretful sleep (then add in all the pee breaks waking me up constantly). I don't take a nap every day, but whether I take one or not doesn't seem to make a damn bit of difference. I can't sleep! Anyone else experiencing this?

I didn't have this trouble at all when I was pg the first time. I slept like a baby!

Re: Can you sleep?

  • My sleep has gone to hell for the last month.  I'm tired all day long, but when it comes time to fall asleep at night, I toss and turn too and my mind just can't settle down.  Normally, I fall asleep right away.  Then, my sleep is very fragmented for the rest of the night.  I was like this when I was pregnant with both my boys too.  Eventually it goes away.

  • And how!  I'm so tired all the time that I'm asleep as soon as my head hits the pillow.  I NEVER fall asleep like that!

    I haven't had any sleeping issues yet (except the night I got my BFP, I had a LOT on my mind!), in fact, I've been quite sleepy.  I fear it's just around the corner though, since so many on here are having similar issues as you. Good luck!

  • I am right there too---even though I am tired all of the time, I don't stay asleep.

    Hoping we can all catch some serious ZZZZZZ soon!

  • Me too... just not having any deep sleep. Tossing and turning, having bad dreams and waking up every couple of hours to pee. I'm so exhausted but just not getting any real rest.

  • Oh man! My sleep is totally screwed also!! Has been or at least a week. 1am I was up eating yogurt w/ wheat germ and cleaning the kitchen! LOL  - Nothing is more miserable then spending more hours in bed awake then asleep!

     (Edited: I didnt have this with #1 either!!)

  • Raising my hand!  Me too.  It's making me crazy.  The wierd thing is with LO #1 I couldn't get enough sleep.  Now this time my sleep has gone to ***.  It's driving DH nuts!

  • I had major sleep problems, but under the advice of my doctor (so definitely see how yours feels about it), am at least falling asleep faster thanks to Benedryl. Now, if she could just do something about this having to wake up to pee thing... :)
