TOPIC: Trouble Sleeping

Trouble Sleeping 5 years, 7 months ago #8002

Hey, I am 11 weeks pregnant, and I know that pregnant women are usually extremely tired and sleepy. The only thing is I cant sleep at night, and can't stop eating then. In the morning I have university and can't get up or end up being so sick that I have to cut my day short. Any suggestions could help, as I cant take sleeping pills. I have tried staying up during the day and it just hasn't worked. Like I said, ALL suggestions would be very much appreciated.

i know exactly how you feel.. when i was pregnant i would wake up at like 3 or 4 in the morning and be wide awake and couldn't be able to sleep but during the day all i wanted to do was sleep.. i thought there was something wrong with me but i guess your in the same boat:)

Hi. I remember wanting to eat all through out the night also. Try some crackers, and relax yourself. Maybe to a boring movie. I'd talk to your doctor about this.

I think your just excited about the baby & cant really get it off your mind & you probably think that you have to eat all of the time just cause your eating for two...but its not really like that...you should try reading like some baby names books or watch a really boring movie! lol...sleeping in really cold rooms makes me sleepy...maybe cut up the a/c a little bit lol...but I hope you find a way to get more sleep...cuz its needed!

Your baby is probably on the opposite schedule of sleeping during the day and keeping you up at night...already!!! I know that it can be hard, but try eating foods that give energy during the day and then having foods like turkey, herbal tea (chamomile) or even warm milk to help you relax at night.
