2nd Trimester

25weeks preggo and just now having trouble sleeping :(

Hello ladies I just needed to vent here a little I had a horrible nights sleep due to waking up all threw the night with back achs,potty breaks,and bad bad dreams :( 

Re: 25weeks preggo and just now having trouble sleeping :(

  • That's been me this whole pregnancy.  My dreams are horridly vivid, and wake me.  I was a tummy sleeper, and now have to force myself on my side.  I wake up about 3-4 times just to pee.  I feel ya girl.  I've given up, and just realized I won't get sleep for the next 18 years.  Seriously though, a body pillow has helped a little.... not much, but a little.  Good luck to you!

  • I totally understand! I've been doing that since week 4ish. :0( My doc told me to take a benydryl if I can't sleep. So between that and my phenergan for nausea, if I at least take something I'm knocked out within the hour. :0) I DO still get up to pee about 3 times but I don't notice as bad of dreams either if I take something. It's almost like a little deeper sleep for me! I hope it gets better for you <3

    If you knew how lonely my life has been And how long I've been so alone And if you knew how I wanted someone to come along And change my life the way you've done

  • Same here!!

     Although...I recently went to the chiropractor for my back aches. Its helped quite a bit. He reccomended I sleep with a pillow or something firm between my legs to keep the hips and spine level. Ive been doing that and noticed a huge differenece in the aches. Have you tried that??

     

    I still get up several times to pee though.....

  • Thanks ladies :)  I will definitely have to try some of your suggestions. I have although noticed that if I sleep on my left side ( I was a tummy sleeper as well) that I sleep a little bit better. Tonight I shall try the pillow between my legs and see if that helps. 
  • I started to have the same problem last week (I'm currently 25 weeks as well) and ordered the Snoogle.  AMAZING!  Order it now and don't look back.  Happy sleeping!! :)
