is insomnia kicking in for anyone else?

blessing1022

I yawn alittle bit but I can't seem to fall asleep Ntm its Sooo hard to get comfortable my moms like it only gets worse. I used to lay on my stomach and pass out in minutes but now laying on my stomach makes me sick.

newmom2be23

It takes me forever to fall asleep, im 26 wks and have had this issue for weeks. Doesnt matter how tired i am its so difficult to fall asleep! Finding a comfortable position only lasts so long too... this is really getting old.

Kicking is my cause of insomnia lol

MrsMaxwell

At first I couldnt stay awake then I went through a period when I couldnt sleep for anything now its just kinds mixed, I take long walks when the weather is nice and at times I park my car and catch the bus so that by the time I get home I'm exhausted. cant wait til the summer. I live in buffalo ny so the weather sucks here. But do things that will tire you then try to get a good rest

I work 2nd shift nights as a nanny and almost every night i leave to come home and once I'm home it takes me like an hour to get back to sleep.

I've Always had a problem with insomnia. I take a tylenol pm at night

Beautiful_Altar

Im 32 weeks and can never fall asleep. Maybe my body is preparing me for when the baby comes.

brodysmamma

I am having the hardest time sleeping at night. its so annoying I am up til after midnight every night then I wake up super early. and if I am tired during the day I cant seemt to fall asleep to take a nap

ScarlettsMama

It was driving me crazy there for a lil while but I've found that if i stay really active during the day and get at least a 45min power walk in then I'm much more tired at night so i just collapse! Lol

Proudmommy8789

im 30 weeks today and i fall asleep but wake up every 2 to 3 hours. i told my husband its my body preparing me for the battle when the baby is finally here. but im able to take naps during the day about 2 to 3 hours at a time

mommy2be2timmyjr

I'm 34 weeks and can't sleep a wink at night...I sure don't have a problem taking a short nap in the middle of the day though! lol I used to be a tummy sleeper too and it's still hard to fall asleep on my side...try the Febreze lavender fabric freshener...spray a lil on your pillow before bed...lavender is a natural relaxer...it helps me sometimes...other times nothing will help...guess it's all to blame on pregnancy and your body getting you ready for sleepless nights wis

novmthumper11

KindA for me.. I can fall asleep but I wake up 3 or 4 times and its hard to go back to sleep. Having intense dreams so maybe that's why.. hope u ladies sleep better too!

kyfriedmommy

Omg..i havent slept a full night for weeks now....i can take great naps after work and on the weekends though....my leg cramps arent making it any easier...dr said take benadryl or tylenol pm but i dont want to become dependent on them to fall asleep

Proudmommy8789

@kyfriedmommy i was getting charlie horses at night time so i started taking one potassium supplement pill at night time and i havent gotten any cramps or charlie horses!

preggooct10

Omg I have had this prob ever since I conceive . I go to sleep at 12 and my eyes POP open at 2:30 ,smh . I really thought I was to early for this to be happening(15weeks) I guess not

jcmommy

I haven't slept good in 5years since I was pregnant with my first. My sleeping schedule is out of wack with kids. I'm so tired.

pregnantlettemama

The best gift I have received in my LIFE: a body pillow from my wonderful sister. I couldn't fall asleep at all before I got it. Lay sideways with the top under your head and the bottom between your legs. Its best to have your shoulders and head laying on a thinner pillow. I didn't think it would work but it def does.

hubz1stbaybay

I do the same with the pillow however u ladies should each ask Yer dr before taking my advice but my dr said tylenol pm and benadryl were both safe to take In the second and third trimester however the first he insists on taking nothing because everything is so crucial at that time so I take a benadryl when my allergys r bothering me at night and if not I take 2 tylenol pm. Hope this helps!

I'm 20 wks tomorrow have a pregnancy pillow and the insomnia is only getting worse and so is the anxiety.

preggooct10

My doctor as well told me I could take benedryl , and he also prescribe sumthg for me but I never took it

sweetmama20_2011
