How can I sleep?!

Question

I’m 24 weeks pregnant and I CANNOT SLEEP. Last night I got a whopping 1 hr and 45 mins of sleep. The maternity pillow is not working for me anymore. I try to do some light yoga/stretching before bed but all it does is get me relaxed which is nice but it’s not what I need in order to sleep. I find myself on my back all the time but I know it’s not ideal for blood flow to the baby. Any tips on what I can do or buy to help my sleep situation? I work full time and I’m desperate for some nice sleep 🥺😩

Answer

Unisom actually helps my sleep and my nausea. I tried going without it and was regretting that decision the next morning.

Answer

I was told it was okay to take a benedryl if it gets really bad. Not ideal but it’s totally safe for baby and it works wonders.

Answer

Sleep on your back. Sleep how you need to, your body will tell you if you need to change positions. I sleep on my back most of the night, 32 weeks.
