Sleeping at night?
How are you ladies sleeping at night? Any tricks?! I have a heck of a time finding a comfortable position! I end up on the couch most of the nights propped straight up! So sick of it, i miss my bed!

Re: Sleeping at night?
I am not uncomfortable in bed yet, but I can't sleep! I wake up early morning every night around 3 or 4 and cannot get back to sleep until about 6, and I have to get up at 6:30. Then I'm exhausted by noon. I'm also having either nightmares or sex dreams each night.
Though my issue is different, I'm with you on sleep issues, and I think any sleep issues stink!
I'm having hot flashes at night. Combine that with the varying temperatures because of the time of year, and the crazy vivid dreams and I'd say not so great.
I'm not a very good sleeper to begin with, so I guess it's no surprise.
As far as positions, I'm not having any trouble yet. I can still sleep comfortably on my stomach.

I ended up with a body pillow by week 5 I was so uncomfortable...it helps but I think what else would help ME...would be not to have a 40lb dog sleeping between my husband & I!! lol
The pillow does help for the most part though. Give it a try. Good luck!
Awwh hope it gets better for all of you
I also wake up at certain times and just can't fall back asleep some nights, it's quite a restless sleep at times! Also, dreams are CRAZY! from running from murderers to crazy sex-capades!
Pregnancy does interesting things to you!
Yeah i feel as if i'm already at the end of pregnancy because of how uncomfortable i get with my stomach! It feels like a big bowling ball is inside of me (Clearly major bloat, but getting there)!
I agree completely with this poster. My biggest problem is our 40lb dog that sleeps in bed with us. Most of the time I can get him down into the corner of the bed but somehow in the middle of the night he ends up closer to me. That also makes me extremely hot so it wakes me up. I have started using a body pillow because the only position that I am comfortable with it laying kinda sideways on my stomach on the body pillow.
