It finally happened

I am always reading about expecting mothers who cant sleep at night. I never had that problem. And ofcourse lastnight at 25 weeks, i had the most terrible night :( i laid for hours tossing and turning. I think i have to resort to the couch! Good luck to you other mommas that are having this same problem , i feel for ya :(

Re: It finally happened

  • I've had insomnia this entire pregnancy. It sucks. I'm sorry and hope tonight is better!

  • Been experiencing that for a few weeks now...it's the worst! Every pillow combination I tried just wasn't enough.

    What is working this week for me is sleeping on our futon....something about my back against it is helping with the hip pain and overall tossing and turning. Our couch somehow did not have the same affect, haha.

    I hope you get to sleeping better soon!

  • I sleep like total shiz. I have for a few weeks. Some nights I take a melatonin gummy and it helps though!
  • Melatonin gummy? Where did you find that?

    Do you take one or two?


    I start with one, but if I'm still tossing and turning after awhile, I'll go ahead and take another.

  • see I have no problem falling asleep....but it's a few hours later that I can't sleep and I toss and turn....all because of the horrible hip and leg pain I have. And the fact that I'm a stomach sleeper who can no longer sleep on her stomach. It's been rough, I've been so tired and have buas under my eyes for the first time in my life!! Lol. I've always been one to only sleep about 6 hours a night and be up early...but this is definitely pushing my limits. I just need some good sleep before baby comes! Tylenol PM barely helps me!

  • Melatonin gummy? Where did you find that?

    Walmart! 5.96 in the vitamin aisle :)
  • I am seriously considering a maternity pillow!
  • Oh no I am sorry- it sucks not sleeping more than 4-5 hrs a night. I have carpal tunnel in my hands - joy upon joy that wakes me up several times and makes it hard to go to sleep when I lay day- add to that the need to pee at least 2 X and there ya go. I think maybe it is nature's way of helping you adjust to the lack of sleep that is to come??? That's how I am choosing to look at it - otherwise I might go bonkers!!

    Poor hubs though, anytime he doesn't sleep well and says something I give him a murderous look. I know it's not his fault but I can't help it. LOL
  • RLS prevents good sleep for me. Haven't had a good nights sleep in who knows how long.

  • Last night was my first time experiencing this too. I normally sleep like a rock, but I started tossing and turning at 3:30 this morning and couldn't fall back to sleep. Said screw it and started my day at 4:30. Great.....this day has been dragging and will continue to. Need some frozen yogurt, my comfy couch, and a nap. 
  • I pee up to 4 times a night. It sucks!! But yes thats a good way to lool at it :)
