Anyone else not sleeping?

I am going insane.  I go to bed each night pretty early in an effort to maybe finally get to sleep, and then I'm awake all night with no ability to fall asleep.  I get maybe one good night of sleep a week.  Anyone else dealing with this?  


Re: Anyone else not sleeping?

  • I'm not, even though I have the flu! The insomnia is pretty normal in pregnancy for me though.

  • I had this problem last week. I just couldn't get comfortable. I found laying on my side with a small pillow in between my knee's helped. I don't know why but it worked wonders. I sleep like a rock now.
  • I'm having the same prooblem here and there. I've learned to nap during the day when I can so I don't get so frustrated when I can't sleep at night. Getting up really early not being able to sleep helps me to catch up on all my girly DVR'd TV shows though!
  • Well I'm glad to hear I'm not the only person dealing with this...  Talked to the midwife this morning and she suggested exercise when I get home from work in the early evening, unisom if I need it, or to look for a Mother's tea at a local coop.  

    I'm going to try exercising when I get home tonight.   

  • I haven't been getting any sleep at night for a week now. I can sleep fine during the day. Even if I do not nap, I still cannot sleep at night.
  • I can't sleep either. Naps on the sofa during the day and I've been sleeping in the guest room lol dh is fighting off the sick and I do not want to catch it!

  • I'm having so much trouble sleeping. I can easily go to bed at like 8pm and I'm wide awake by midnight. Than I end up tossing and turning the rest of the night. Plus I've been having such messed up dreams that are so vivid and feel sooo real they wake me up. I usually have to be up by 5am to get ready for work, today I was up at 3:30am by no choice of mine and wide awake.

    Dear Sleep,

    Please come back, I miss you dearly!  lol

  • I had that problem around week 3 and 4 when I hit week 5 I do nothing but sleep and day dream about sleep. I still get up to pee but fall right back to sleep. Hang in there things change quickly I am learning.
  • I'm waking more frequently and getting up earlier, but I think it's because I'm so FREAKING excited!!! And I haven't told DH yet...so it's on my mind.
