Insomnia and not exhausted

Anyone experiencing insomnia. I have a hard time falling asleep, staying asleep, getting comfy. I don't feel as exhausted as I did with my first pregnancy (ended in m/c). Anyone feeling this 6 weeks today and hcg normal so far. Super sore breasts, no morning sickness sometimes nauseous though. 
I am also on progesterone don't know if this makes a difference.

    I am at 6 weeks myself and I had a hard time for a little while. It turns out I had to analyze my habits and see what I could do to help myself relax.

    Things to consider:

    1. What is keeping you up? Is your brain not turning off? Or is it more just you not feeling comfortable physically?

    2. When do you try to go to bed? Do you have any bedtime rituals? (Ex: wash face, brush teeth, etc.) Having a set rhythm for bed time can help a lot.

    3. How soon to you go to bed after eating a meal? This was an issue I had for a while. My bedtime was too close to my last small meal fr the night. I changed my small meal to some lighter foods that are easier to digest and it did wonders.

    4. What have you been doing instead of sleeping? TV? Reading?
