as the saying goes i cant sleep i dont know what it is but its like my body is telling me i cant sleep i got to be on my feet all the time ......

at the moment im finding it hard with no sleep i have a 10 month old baby and i want to play with him and i feel too exhausted to i feel like a walking zombie..

ive tried all the basic stuff have warm bath before bed,drink warm milk have tried reading ans just lying in the dark but nothing works ,my body is acheing and im in agony most the time

midwife came today for birth plan told her im not sleeping she didnt seem concerned or anything just seemed to brush it off ,im not sure if i can take anything or not to help

has anyone got any useful tips i could maybe try for me to sleep xxxxxxxxxxx

I know melatonin works, but honestly I dont know if its safe during pregnancy. Would your oh massage your back until you fall asleep? LOL, I know mine wouldnt, but worth a shot. Maybe make sure you arent eatting too late, or having too much caffiene during the day.

I hope you get some rest soon! How many weeks are you?

yer hun it does ease off once baby is here ,when my 10 month old son was born i had more sleep then than when carrying him ,the thing is tho i found because i was so exhausted and very tired from no sleep at all that i found it hard to get up with my baby xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

I know the feeling.... I have about 3-4 hours of broken sleep a night, normally about 1 hr at a time and then I wake about 4:30ish and I'm awake then for the rest of the day . It's hard when I have to go to work and stay awake all day ..... I will admit that I have fallen asleep at my desk a couple of times

No tips though I'm afraid, I'll keep an eye out cause I could use some myself.
