Have you had trouble sleeping since becoming pregnant?

Question

I am almost 8 weeks and I cannot sleep at night for the life of me. My hips and legs ache so incredibly bad. I’ve tried baths, massages, stretches, sleep aids, pillows. NOTHING makes it better. Sleep aids only make me 10X more restless. I am losing my sanity day by day.

Answer

I’m 38 weeks and it’s just gotten worse 😩.

Answer

I’m usually a bad sleeper but it was way worse with both of my pregnancies. I feel like the lack of sleep you get when your pregnant is Mother Nature’s way of preparing you for having a newborn 😂

Answer

I’m 24 weeks and have been struggling with this since week 9😣 for me i have a MAJORLY over active bladder (thinks i have to pee when i don’t actually have to, which is every 5 minutes) and since I’m pregnant i can’t get meds for it.  It’s horrifying at night!

Answer

23 weeks here, and up in the middle of the night. I fall asleep quickly, but wake up around midnight every night and take 3 hours to fall back asleep. I just said some hurtful things to my husband when I woke up this time, because I’m stressed and irrational without enough rest. This cycle sucks. Benadryl or a sleep aide are the only thing that helps, but I feel like a shitty mom of I take that every night, so I usually wait until I am at my wit’s end about twice a week. I work full time and have a two year old.

Answer

No shame I got a pregnancy pillow at like 7-8 weeks for the exact reason. Life changing. I know you said you’ve tried pillows, but if you haven’t tried a pregnancy pillow I’d suggest that!
