White Noise

Rachel GoldsteinRachel Goldstein member
in May 2013 Moms

I haven't been sleeping very well in the last few days/weeks. My husband is a snorer, not like that has changed, but I'm just incredibly uncomfortable and every little sound wakes me up. Super pregnancy senses? I'm not sure, but I found that playing white noise really helps. Last night I chose "extreme rain" (no thunder) and it was the magic key to a good night's sleep (for now). It was a free app for my phone.

I've completely given up caffeine so I don't know why on earth my body thinks it should be awake at 4am other than to be annoying. I slept so well that I didn't even hear my husband get up get ready and leave this morning! I'm going to try it again tonight just to see if it was a fluke.

Anyone else having problems sleeping?

    I have problems falling asleep but usually sleep well once I can. Its so strange how I can feel so tired and go to bed- then feel wide awake and unable to sleep.

    White noise helps babies too :) we still play music for my DD who will be 2 in December and we have no plans to stop any time soon! I think it helps the brain shut down...glad its helping you!

    I am sleeping horribly now. I don't know if it's because of worry or what but I feel exhausted all day but I just can't seem to fall asleep well and even then, I toss and turn a lot during the night. I don't remember this happening with DD...I just had insomnia in third tri, not first!

    Ive been having a horrible time falling asleep too! My DH also snores and always falls asleep before me. And every little noise wakes me up. Not to mention we are staying at my parents house until we close on our new house and their guest bed is sooooo uncomfortable. I miss my king size pillowtop:

    I agree. Some nights I have trouble falling asleep and other nights I can't stay asleep. I have a white noise machine and I love it. I can only imagine how much worse my sleeping would be without it!

    Is easier for me to fall asleep, but I'm having more wakes and trouble getting back to sleep. :

    Try taking some calcium and magnesium before bed. It really helps my DH who used to rely on Benadryl to get him to sleep and me fall asleep and stay asleep. It's also great for headaches.
