Hard time sleeping

[jessesgirl]

Has anyone else had a REALLY hard time sleeping at night? It is not so much discomfort as it is just restlesness....IDK what to do! I am staying up til three or four in the morning (my hubby goes to sleep @ 10 pm) and hen I am sleeping til noon or so. I don't like this cause I feel like I am wasting my day away! Do y'all know of anything that might help me get to sleep naturally (LOL or drug induced that is safe for pregnancy!)? Any suggestions would help greatly! Thanks everyone!!!

My doctor recommended taking Benadryl, one Tylenol PM, or a small glass of wine to help relax in the evening before bedtime. To be honest.. I hated the fact of taking any type of medication or especially alcohol.. but I had VERY bad insomnia during my 4th and 5th months. I tried all of those and none of them helped me. The best thing I found was just accepting it, and trying to relax in the evening by drinking some milk.. taking a warm bath.. and reading a book. Usually in a few hours I'd get sleepy and fall asleep.

You are definitely not alone though!! Just keep saying to yourself "this to shall pass"
