Sleep?!?!?

Hi ladies.  I am 5w4d and cannot sleep!!  Last week I slept like a rock for at least 10 hrs straight (which never happens).  The last 3 nights, even though I am exhausted, I cannot seem to fall asleep, and when I finally do, I can't stay asleep!  I have 3 boy's and do not remember having this trouble during my 1st trimester with any of them.  Thoughts?!? Suggestions?!

Thanks ladies!  I will try the bananas tonight!  And maybe the bath too :)  I havent really had much cramping or anything anyhing...the nausea kicks in first thing in the morning.  Maybe my mind is just racing too and the lavender will help me relax!

Try a nice long relaxing bath with some lavender in it and time it well that once you have had your bath you go straight to bed. Lavender is proven to help you sleep. It worked for me.... :-)

I read Bananas help and for me they do.
i sleep better if I have one before bed they release a natural chemical our body produces but a little more. Also good body pillow helps.
