The voice of experience lol.....I woke up at 3am every morning throughout my whole pregnancy and when Albert was newborn he would wake up for a feed bang on 3am. There's nothing you can do about it I'm afraid and certainly do not ever take any sleeping aids ie tablets when pregnant. It does at least get you used to waking up when the baby does but that's no comfort when your eyeballs are falling out lol

I've not been sleeping great (and sorry to tell you for me it did carry on into Tri 2)

In the beginning it was down to nerves, then it was down to excitement and now it's down to having trouble getting comfy and staying off my back.

I still get about 6-7 hours so I am lucky but they are not continious!

I try to rest a lot, so I read in bed or lay down to watch TV under a blanket on the sofa

For me a catheter and a knock to the head would have been a big help. Sadly it's just something you get used to. Xx
