Insomnia

[baby_lemieux]

Hey Ladies, Im currently 15 weeks 6 days. I have been struggling with sleep since about week 8 or 9. My OB prescribed me Ambien to help. The RX had 20 in the bottle.. I finished in less than 30 days. Guessing about 23 days.. She inatructed me to take the meds for sleeplessness nights, but not every night, as the drug could possibly pass to the baby. I am no longer taking ambien and have been taking OTC Unisom. Which is safe during pregnancy. Even when taken at 8-9pm im still wide awake until 2-3 am. What can i do? IM GETTING DESPERATE FOR SLEEP AND A NORMAL SCHEDULE

Try buying pure lavender oil. It puts me to sleep when I dab a little on a cold towel and apply it to my forehead

Yeah I was taking unisom and the same time n it took affect at the same time for me to so I stopped taking it n I just deal with not being able to sleep. I normally sleep during the day bcuz of this and do my house cleaning and what not at night. You could try taking it earlier it helped me
