Insomnia and anxiety

amyers

Hey ladies!! I never post just read but I thought I would ask for your advice. I'm 30 wks pregnant with my 2nd daughter. With my 1st I remember having like 2 times I felt like I was having some anxiety. Well this is my 3rd night in the past week I am just laying here unable to sleep which causes me to have some anxiety bc I stress out about how much sleep I'm not getting!! I feel like I'm going crazy Is this normal?? Any one have experiences with this during pregnancy??

I just had that last night sucks which is weird for me cause I usually fall right to sleep. Maybe it's from having a lot I your mind I think that's what did it for me. Plus I took nap during the day which made it harder to fall asleep. I don't get anxiety attack from it though just super annoyed!

I'm sure I have too much on my mind!! I guess its good to know someone else deals with it too! Thankfully less than 10 wks to go

I get that all the time pregnant or not. but it was super heightened my second pregnancy to the point of paranoia. Ask your doc first, but mine said I could take a tylenol pm to help me sleep and do meditation to soothing sounds or relaxing music before bed or when I was getting anxious. hope that helps!!!

Thanks for the advice. I have my normal appt tomorrow so I'm definitely asking him about it. I'm just very thankful I don't deal with this normally!!
