no sleep

[nmf1987]

well just got up from having no sleep at all.

went to bed about 11 last night. couldn't sleep. kept trying and trying. eventually got up and made a horlicks to try and settle at 3.30. was still awake at 7.30.

started drifting off at around 8 then awake again at 9 so on and so forth.

feel so rough and making me feel really down as this is occuring quite often now.

anyone no anything to help. i just can't seem to get comfy and switch off. when i do sleep i have bad dreams about baby etc.

I'M SOOOO TIRED.

sorry girls just feel abit lost and rubbish at the mo. xxx

I can totally sympathise with you hun. I'm a tummy sleeper & due to my bump can no longer lay on my front. Have not found a comfortable sleeping position yet & am on a full week of badly broken sleep. With other personal factors at the moment I am finding myself very snappy & weepy. If you look on the pregnancy general chat you will see I've been frantically searching for a pillow that you can buy that let's you sleep on your front. Can't remember it's name & can't find it on Google either so totally stuck - grrrrrrr!
I hope you get a better nights sleep tonight - maybe we're just getting some early practice for what the future will hold lol x

think ive tried everything like that.

ive phoned in work today which i hate doing but am just sooo tired.

i think im just worrying about stuff too much.

same as you sunny b i am abit concerned im not feeling flutters all the time. if it's not that then im thinking about money or what colours i need to find for the nursery. its never ending. i have alway been the sort of person that can't shift stuff from my mind though. always plays so much that i cant sleep. xx

I always try to think if I am trying to get to sleep, can I actually sort the problem with now? No, I can't so I'll worry about it when I can do something about it like tomorrow! Doesn't always work when your mind is overactive and seeing as I am not sleeping well either my advice might at well be drawered lol.

I wouldn't also be too concerned about feeling regular flutters at the moment hun as that is normal, does get a bit more frequent at the weeks go on, I am only now feeling it a little bit more.

Try not to worry hun.
