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!

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. :wink

[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 :irked:
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 :p

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!

[JSMa]

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 :cuss 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!!!:angry

[JSMa]

Ugh, Jen that is awful! :hug


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? :p
