3rd Trimester

Can't sleep!!!!!

Every night I wake up at 2am like clockwork to go pee...and when I get back to bed I can't sleep! I'm about to go nuts! I have a 22 month old so it's not like I get to just rest all evening when I get home from work. Ugh....I want a sleeping pill!

Re: Can't sleep!!!!!

  • this sounds like me with my first, i was always up at the same time each night to go to the bathroom....the super weird thing was that after my son was born he always woke up at that same time to eat! i'm sure it was a coincidence, but it was very odd how it correlated to the same time that i was used to getting up to go to the bathroom before he was born, lol!

  • Same here.  After the 2am bathroom session all bets are off.  I am SOOOO tired.

    Plus, this week DD has taken to waking up at 4am for no apparent reason.  Can I run away from home for the next couple of weeks???

  • Thank the lord DD is a good sleeper or I"d really be a mess! I just lay there really still trying to convince myself the sleep will come...and it doesn't! Maybe I should get up and do something....NAH!!

  • Check with your doctor- mine told me half a Tylenol PM was safe.  I am not taking any currently but I did with my first at the end.

  • I was advised by my Dr. to take Unisom for help sleeping... Maybe give it a try?
  • I had it really bad!  Every time I woke up to pee (3-4 times a night) it would take me about an hour to fall back asleep.  My sister told me her doctor told her to take Unisome and it helped her immensely when she was pg.  I asked my doctor about it and she said it is perfectly safe to take every night up to one pill.  I only take 1/4 - 1/2 pill a night and it works WONDERS!   I still wake up to pee and then fall right back to sleep.  I don't wake up feeling groggy or anything as long as I take it early enough.  This stuff has saved me!  I highly recommend it as long as your doctor is ok with it :)

  • Sounds like the story of my life..It's even more frustrating when DH is fast asleep snoring it irritates me even more! I'm not a make-up person but between my waking up 3-4 times in the middle of the night, my 2 year old and waking up early for work and getting home late I need something to cover these bags and pale skin!

    This is me! When DD is at school I try to nap but I'm so so tired and the baby isn't even here yet!
