Sleep?

Question

I️ am normally a hard and long sleeper - without an alarm I️ could regularly get 9-10 hours and be happy. Lately (12w4d) I’ve been waking up in the middle of the night to pee which is nothing new but am having the worst time getting back to sleep - I’ll lie there awake for an hour or more and it’s awful! Anyone else?

Answer

Yes!! I said this EXACT thing to my doctor on Friday. I knock out the second my head hits the pillow but wake up to pee at 3 am and then I'm up with anxiety until just before the alarm goes off. It's exhausting  
The doctor recommended mindfulness exercises and calms forte. A friend told me she used to take 1/2 a unisom halfway though the night and it helped + didn't make her feel groggy. I asked about this at my appointment and doc gave it the thumbs up. She also said unisom can help with nausea (would have been nice to know that a month ago!). 
I'm going to try unisom and thinking of things I'm grateful for. That's helped me in the past and can't hurt. 
Hope you find relief. Gotta get all the rest we can before the babies are here!
