Pregnancy insomnia anyone?

[quietserena]

Am I the only one who falls asleep at 9 pm and then wakes up at 1 and scares the cat middle of the night?

[MommyDOK]

subbing.....same boat.

Oh me for sure. I can't fall asleep at night and then wake up several times during the night and can't fall back asleep. It's very irritating!

Mine kicked in last night too. I had it with #4, but not with the rest. I don't remember it starting in so soon last time. DRats!

[Phoenix~Mama]

I wake up a TON during the night. Driving me insane.

I'm waking up in the night and also in the early morning. But right now, I feel like I could sleep for hours! And i can't of course, with a 3 year old needing attention! Bleah.

I was saying yesterday that pregnant women have a constitutional right to sleep.

[A Mothers Love]

Yes, If I wake up & need to pee I try to ignore it. If I do get up...then I am up for about an hour or so :
It is hard because I lay there saying I'm tired & think about how tired I'm going to be the next day & I get myself all worked up......I'm silly

It's such a cruel situation! Just when we need the sleep the most--we can't sleep! I'm definately been waking up at 1am or 2am and can't go back to sleep for hours. I remember it being even worse towards the end of pregnancy...then the baby is born and you don't get enough sleep for a year! Still not complaining--just happy to be pregnant--it's all worth it!

Here's my stupid situation...STUPID INSOMNIA!


I don't fall asleep until like 2-4 AM, then I have to wake up, take DD to school, then I come back and sleep until noon.

I have tried to stay up after taking her to school, but I still will not fall asleep until wee hours of the morning, no matter how tired I am. GRRRRR!!


I'm getting ear plugs...everything wakes me up in the middle of the night.
(HINT HINT) Ladies if you can, please do this. My dad is a light sleeper and has been using ear plugs for years and sleeps soundly now.

[quietserena]

It keeps happening to me! I keep waking up at crazy early hours and staying awake for three or so hours. It just makes me crazy!

[Phoenix~Mama]

Yes.. it is evil! All I want to do is sleep!!! But I lay down... nothing. I will sleep for a little, then boom... wide awake.

SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO....


I have been falling asleep at about 8/9 pm, then I'm up all night. So last night, I made myself stay up and not nap. I went to bed at about 8:45, slept until 10ish...AND THEN THE DOGS NEXT DOOR STARTED BARKING! OMG!!!!!!!!!!!! At nothing! There were no other dogs out there, nothing to make them bark, they were just barking to bark. I was FURIOUS!!! So my hubby call either the cops or the neighbor(not sure which) and then the dogs were taken inside. I ended up going back to bed at about 11ish, but couldn't fall asleep until after midnight. FURIOUS I TELL YA!!!

[Phoenix~Mama]

Ugh, Jen that is awful!


I actually slept nice and sound the past two nights! Except I had to get up like 3 times to pee. *sighs* So still interupted sleep... I was ready to go back to bed when I got up this morning? Is that a bad sign?
