Difficulty Sleeping


Is anybody else having trouble sleeping this early on. I have been really struggling for the last week or so to get to sleep before 4am then i'm usually up again by 9am at the latest. I can't seem to get comfy even though i'm surrounded by that many pillows there is barely room for DH. I start back to work again on Monday after being off sick and i have to be in work for 7.30am so i am really concerned about the lack of sleep. Is there anyone else going through this? Any advice?

try tuning down before bedtime ie. take a bath, turn the lights down and just chill out for a while. that has helped me, i have sleep probs even when im not pregnant.

I have been like this for ages now, some nights i have only had three hours sleep and then had to get up for work at 7.30. I am just tossing and turning, can't get comfortable.

I tend to fall into a deep sleep for few hours, wake up after a couple of hours and then i am wide awake

Have tried the whole relaxing bath thing. Didn't work for me. End up getting so restless that i end up getting the laptop out and coming on here.lol. So maybe BnB is the reason for my sleepless nights.

I think we all joined the insomia club way way too early! I love my sleep but it just isnt happened, sorry i can't offer much advice. Maybe a brisk walk in the fresh air would help?

I have two dogs and with being off work i've walked them loads and also cleaned the house a hundred times. Nothing seems to tire me out enough to actually close my eyes and sleep.

My DH is the same. I have lots of things going on in my tummy and it also feels really heavy. Really don't know what the solution is.

mrsnewbury we are at exactly the same stage and i can sympathize completely i'm going through the same thing at the moment, if i do sleep its from pure exhaustion!

When i do finally get comfy my cat wakes me up.....anyone with a cat will probably understand this clip entirely!
