sleep!!

Haha I know this is a funny word to us however... I'm 30weeks and soooo tired and yet I can't ever seem to fall asleep and when I do I don't sleep more than a few hours at a time OR my heart burn is so bad it wakes me up. Does anyone have some helpful tips on ways to help me get some sleep before my baby comes???

Half of a unisom is safe to take,  I was taking it for a while abd it helped a good deal.  It's normal to not be able to sleep at this point.  Could be caused by anything from anxiety to your impending birth to just being plain uncomfortable.  I have always had insomnia abd pregnancy makes it worse because I am a light sleeper and when the baby starts her little rave party in there I wake up and can't sleep until she's done.  I have also been told that drinking milk or eating a banana before bed will also help with sleep. I don't like milk and bananas cause me to have reflux so I haven't tried either of those options.
