lack of sleep

[christeng]

Ive tried everything! I have 2 body pillows (one is the pregnancy pillow). Ive tried warm showers/baths before bed. Ive done all the tricks and I havent slept good in weeks. Im to the point where im so exhausted during the day I can bearly function. Im grumpy and moody as **** when im normally a very happy person. I just want to sleep through the night! Help! Any advice or tricks that you dont normally hear?

Instead of body pillow try a breast feeding pillow for under your belly the u shape fits so perfectly.

Oh and I like it cuz it doesn't make me groggy or loopy in the morning too.

You should talk to your doc. I am able to take 1 unisom (must be doxylamine  succinate not the other unisom) for pregnancy sickness which strikes me right before bed. It knocks me out its a pregnancy class A so it's considered safe, but also ask your doc before you take it!

My nurses and Dr told me that I could take 1 benadryl to sleep nightly. I take one a week just to get a really good nights sleep, I don't feel right taking them nightly but that's just me :) My previous Dr told me a half glass of red wine but I didn't want to do that at all. I'm sorry mama, hope it gets better!
