Try warm milk and a nice warm bubble bath
before you go lay down. Also avoid
caffeine 6 hours before bed and try
reading instead of watching tv about 30
minutes before you go to sleep. Hope
those help!

Why is it that you cant sleep? Are you
worried about your daughter? If so go and
sleep in the nursery. Try a fuzzy
blanket, watch a lame movie that will put
you to sleep..Doo something!!! I dont
really have any ideas on this one...I dont
have that big of a sleep problem!!

The only thing that works for me when I
can't sleep would be some warm tea and/or
a hot bubble bath. I usually fall asleep
in the tub! Then roll my self outta tub
into bed! Hehe...Becareful...Dont fall
asleep in tub like me!
