Yea I've tried talking to my doctor they say Tylenol pm or Benadryl but those just make me restless and irritated lol so they just say it's my bodies way of preparing myself for the baby lol they won't give me anything and it wouldn't be such a problem if I didn't have 2 toddlers but I need to sleep to be their for them I guess my doctors don't understand that they tell me to take naps during the day but I can't I need to get stuff done while my girls are asleep and not getting into everything lol I just don't know what to do anymore I feel so horrible that I don't have the energy to play around with my girls  :-(

Talk to your dr about a sleep agent they can prescribe you or that you can take over the counter. I was prescribed sleep meds to hekp me sleep at night. Warm baths before bed also relaxes your muscles abd helps your body get ready for sleep. Your last months are always the toughest because your so uncomfotable and anxious. Theres also an herbal tea you can drink to help relax yoyr body, but Im not sure the exact name of the one my dr told me to drink.
