Sleep schedule set in stone?

[agladding]

For my entire pregnancy I've been on this really strange sleep schedule, I go to sleep at 11:30-12ish, wake up at 3-3:30 for at least 1.5-3 hours, go back to sleep, up at 7am for 1hour, and back to sleep until 10am. I'm wondering if my body has been on this weird schedule because this will be when the baby wants to get up. Have any moms had this strange sleeping issue? Have any moms noticed that once the baby was born that this was their sleeping schedule? Helppppp! I could sleep in all day if someone would let me, but at night my body doesn't want me to sleep at all! And I've tried everything btw, warm milk, bath before bed, not watching tv, only using the bed for sex and sleep, Benadryl, and nothing seems to work!

I have tried sleeping in different places but nothing helps! I guess it's all just to prep us go having to be up during the night. I don't mind getting up during the night once I have a reason to get up, but right now there is no reason to not be sleeping. Benadryl does absolutely nothing for me being pregnant, it's almost like my body is immune to it, which is weird. Before I was pregnant of I had taken a Benadryl I would be knocked out! Now I've been up from 2-now(5:30am)....ughhh! Sleepy time tea does nothing for me either, I was putting my faith in that working, but no such luck! Well mommas it looks like we just have to go without sleep for now, and tough it out. At least I know I'm semi normal, I hate that I could sleep all day, but never any at night.

I'm exactly the same way its 4am I've just woken up went to sleep at 11pm I won't be sleepy again until about 2pm and I'll sleep until 6pm back up until 11 sleep until 3 or 4 am again I'm 26 weeks and this has been my sleep schedule for some time now I mean it was worst before I couldn't sleep at all literally about 3 to 4 hours a day I would feel horrible because I would take benadryls at night n they wouldn't work I would be up all night and day with the worst feeling

Yes I completely understand you ! My daughter and husband sleep so soundly and it bothers me when I my husbands snores because I'm like lucky you get to sleep right :/ I've tried everything, I have a maternity pillow plus extra. I drink a tea before bed or take a bath and nothing I can't sleep right :( my doctor said it's normal for no sleep !! Have you tried doing something else like sleep on the couch ??

It's so strange! I hate it! My husband is always sleeping like a baby! I just wish I could go to sleep earlier and stay asleep the full night and wake up like a normal person! I don't get tired during the day either! I feel like I'm a vampire sleeping all through the day, but never at night! This frustrates me to no end! Then I get bored because there is nothing to do during the hours I'm awake....this blows! I feel like my first trimester I had so much energy and felt great and slept like a normal person. This third trimester blows! I want to go back to a normal sleeping schedule and catch up on some sleep so bad!

We are awake at the same time :) that always happens to me at times I get really frustrated cause I just want a good night sleep but I'm guessing it is getting ready fort when the baby wakes up :D lol

I'm the exact same way! I can't sleep at all during the night but once the sun goes up I'm sleeping like a baby & I sleep for hours ! I'm due in 1week & really need to catch up on some sleep before baby comes! Its driving me crazy
