Is anyone else having trouble sleeping? No matter how much I try I cant get to sleep at night. My last pregnancy I had no problem sleeping at all. I actually sleep too much I think. I just lay in bed at night but can never get comfortable enough to get to sleep and when I finally fall asleep it's time for me to get up. Please give some advice on what to do to get a good nights sleep.

Hi there I had the same problem!!
It would be days of no sleep. And sick !!
That was over 3 years ago and my doc had me take 1 pill~~
asleeping pill it was 25mg
and they were doxylamine succinate tablets.
I took them about 1 hour before I went to bed.
I would go and ask your doctor since it has been 3 years thare might be something better out there.After a few weeks I started sleeping
better on my own.
I had tried excersiseing and reading in bed to relax me and all
sorts of things and this worked by far the best.I usally even slept threw the night!!!!!
So ask your doc first just to be safe.
And I hope many nights of sleep for you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Smile

Thanks. I never thought of asking my doctor about it because I thought it is just a phase I was going through. I tried doing light exercise during the day. I even walk up and down stairs. You would think that since I dont take any naps throughout the day I would be snoring at night but it's just not working. I think i'm going to check with my doctor but does anyone else tried anything that worked for them?

Big Trouble Sleeping
Posted: 02-06-04 01:50am
Hi, my name is heather. I am 15 weeks and 4 days preggy and I have the worst trouble getting to sleep. I mean I cant fall asleep until around 3:00am. Then I wake up all through the night. I mean I wake up, run to the bathroom, and then lay back down but cant fall asleep till another 1/2 an hour. I wake up and feel so tired, I don't know what it is. I tried everything, I don't know what to do, my dr says I need to sleep cause in a couple months I am gona have trouble sleeping. I will be up during the day while the baby sleeps, then when I sleep the baby plays boxing with my belly. If you find a way please let me know!!!
