I'm really starting to feel uncomfortable and totally restless too. I get so angry that I can't get any sleep and that's all the advice I've gotten "get some rest because you won't sleep when she arrives" I guess I'm screwed lol

I went through the same thing & sorry to break the news but it only gets worse as you get closer to your due date. I was only getting about 2-4 hrs of sleep a day & I couldn't stand it anymore. I felt like I was having anxiety & panic attacks...finally, when I went to my Dr. appt on Friday I was dilated to 7 cm, so I was sent to the hospital to have my baby boy...was born that night @ 7:04 pm. My son is such a good baby that I have somewhat caught up on my sleep. Good luck everyone!

Im only 19w and 4d and i am having this problem already. it seems no matter how i try to lay i can't get comfortable. i even have the pillows for between my knees but it is not helping. i have a feeling it is not going to get better. I don't remember it being this hard with my first two. of course Im am older this time lol.

Ugh me too.  I'm 33 weeks.   Restless sleep is horrible!   Toss n turn .. I get grumpy .. and just want to cry.  On top of work... doc apts .. housework ... does it ever end?   Guess its part of being a mommy.. although I don't recall sleeplessness with my prior pregnancies
