Good (too early) morning ladies,

I know i've seen these type posts in the past but thought i'd kick a dead horse ..

What is up with this pregancy insomnia? I go to bed exhausted then i'm up within 2-3 hours.

Did you experiece it too? Any ideas for better nights sleep?

TIA,
Cathie

Hey Sweets....

Sorry you are up so early!!! I took Tylenol PM in my third trimester to help with sleep but not sure about 1st Trimester....gotta be careful there....are you drinking any caffeine or chocolate late at night before bed?

I hope you get some more sleep this weekend and the rest of your pregnancy....

Hugs,

Ann

Hey Ann,

Nope, no caffeine - in fact I had liquid benadryl early in the evening because i've got a cold.

I plan to get as much rest as my DH and 5 year old will allow.  LOL

I wish I had the answer because I have the same problem.  It's gotten a little bit better since my doctor convinced me that it's safe to have Benadryl.  Even with that, though, sometimes I just can't stay asleep.  I'll get up at 3 or so to go to the bathroom and I'm up for the rest of the night.

You would think the exhaustion of early pregnancy would help you sleep at night but I guess not!

I am feeling the same way. I'm so tired yet I don't sleep well. I have no advice unfortunately.

I took tylenol pm my whole pregancy. My doc told me that it was ok to take. That was the only way I was able to sleep.
