No sleep-day 1

Hi Ladies!!  Congratulations on your pregnancies!

I suffer from insomnia, but it can be controlled with medication.  Well, since I found out yesterday that I am pregnant those pills are going in the trash : (

So I had my first night of no sleep.  I HATE THIS!  Last pregnancy, I relied heavily on benedryl so I think I'll go that route again.  Does anyone do any meditation?  Any recommendations?

Thanks!

  • I take half a Unisom nightly and it helps greatly. I prefer it over Benedryl. Unisom can also help with morning sickness. Hopefully you're able to get some relief!

  • I do the half a Unisom too on nights where I know I haven't slept well the night before. Last week DH was out of town and I couldn't do it with my 20 month old around and it was a loooong week. I also diffuse lavender oil, helps some nights I think.
  • Thanks ladies!
