Insooooooomnia!!!

Leave me aloooooone!!!

My baby woke me up an hour ago. She's been back in her crib asleep for 20 minutes. I've had less that three hours of sleep, yet I'm wide awake and don't feel sleepy at all.

Ugh. This makes no sense. I'm TIRED!! Wasn't pregnancy enough of a mind eff/sleep mess up?

Hopefully everyone else and their babies are all sleeping. :)



Note: autocorrect tried to change "else" to "eels". I have never posted about, google searched, texted, or emailed about "eels." Wth.

Re: Insooooooomnia!!!

  • I feel ya! I've been dealing with insomnia for months now. I freaking hate it. Insomnia caused by rls is the pits, man.

    Hope you get some rest. Unisom helps me some nights, and @chiboo9 and @casey78 recommended natural calm and that's been helping a little as well, maybe look into that if the insomnia doesn't get better? Sorry, mama, hang in there.

  • Yes, definitely give Natural Calm a try. Same as @casey78, it helps me fall asleep easier. I feel the quality of sleep I get has also improved. I'm sorry, insomnia sucks. :(

    @emmanemm Glad it's working, even if just a little, for you!
  • suuuucks.  Sorry, man.  Hope you were able to get some sleep!

  • I think I got another three hours after that wake up. Woohoo!! Thanks, Ladies. I'll try to find some of the Natural Calm.
  • Boooo. Insomnia sucks. Go to sleep! I think this is what our babies think. image
    @MissConstrued, I think that you are right. NOOOOO SLEEEEEP!!!!
  • I had trouble sleeping last night too, but I really haven't dealt with it too much post-pregnancy.  I hope insomnia leaves us all alone!
