Can I take melatonin pills to help me sleep at 22wks?

Question

I have some 1mg Melatonin pills that help you to drift off. I haven't been getting good sleep and was wondering if I could take them. I know that you guys aren't nurses or doctors, but was wondering if anyone has ever taken them while pregnant? I mean, our bodies do naturally produce it.. I just need more 😭😭😭

Answer

Melatonin is the safest option.

Answer

Definitely no. If anything, benadryl.

Answer

I've been told you can take up to 3mg while pregnant, although I don't recommend anyone taking melatonin every night.

Answer

My doctor said no melatonin. Unisom is okay. I take only 1/2 and it’s enough to help me sleep but not wake up groggy.

Answer

My doctor told me it is perfectly fine to take because it’s  natural organic

Answer

Took it during my last pregnancy in moderation when needed. My baby is 8 months old and 100% healthy and happy lol it didn’t hurt her at all.

Answer

My midwife told me it was fine and to keep my dose under 5mg. I work night shift so I take melatonin all the time, 2.5mg. I’m 31 weeks currently, no issues as far as I know, everything’s been good at all my appointments.

Answer

Unison or Benadryl

Answer

Try unisom!
