My grandma always gave me warm milk, with butter & honey to help me relax. Something about the combo that sends your body into relax & sleep mode :)

Wow.. I can't even imagine how you must feel. I am however stunned by your efforts to keep it together for your family. You are one heck of a woman, you should be proud of how strong you've been so far. Keep it going, when you do get 5 mins to yourself have a good cup of tea & tune out everything else!
I'm available to vent to :) my situation is similar, -the little one  (still Preggy lol)

I'm limited on that .... Or else I would totally take that route .... Doctors found I have a cut in my uterus & it cause me to bleed so sex very very little , but well try warm milk hopefully makes it easy to sleep and relax

Sounds strange but maybe sex? Or solo orgasm? Calms me down, tmi i know. Try baking a few cookies & drink warm milk, taking a warm bath, relax with some candles before bed to ease you into wanting sleep etc..
