Cant sleep, cant eat

[clb1982]

I feel so fed up at the mo as I cant seem to be able to eat much. Literally i have a few mouthfuls of something and feel so full up its stupid.

Then when i go to bed at night i just cant seem to get comfortable and wake up at least once an hour. The trouble is I always sleep on my front as its the most comfortable position for me. But for the past week when i lay on my front its uncomfortable as my insides feel a little swollen now and crushed by this position. I do the cushion between the legs thing but still i dont sleep.

Im only just over 8 wks and already i can no longer sleep on my front. Is this normal this early? anyone else having the same problem?

I can't give you advise but I can sure sympathize with you

Can't sleep on my front either.
Can't really sleep well. Not eating well. It's madness I tell ya!

I just get comfort out of knowing I'll be able to start eating properly soon. Right now nausea is making it IMPOSSIBLE! And hopefully that'll help the sleeping problem a bit. Nausea and discomfort also to blame there.

Hi Gabi

How many wks pg are you? x

Definitely felt that way, you are not alone. It does eventually get better, I know it's not a lot of help. As far as the not eating much I snacked every hour or so, just something small and light but it did help a bit and try not to get too dehydrated. As for sleep, I found I just ended up napping a lot during the day ( not always an option tho) right now I can only get to sleep on my back but that will change soon I'm sure, I used to ONLY be able to sleep on my tummy.

Good luck trying to get comfy. and try drinking something warm (starting to remember that helping)

i havnt had any trouble sleeping but can sympathise with the nausea bit as i was sick up until like 5 months preg, then it went for abit then the past few weeks i have been starting to feel sick again in the morn and on a few occasions have actually started being sick again including this morn
i thought it had finally gone lol!

I am quite similar at the mo,

I haven't had nausea too bad, although sometimes a smell will make me nauseous. I made my SO change his bodywash because the stuff he was using "stunk up the whole house" LOL!

I can't sleep either. I'm 7 weeks along now and have been getting up at 5am every morning for some reason. I can't fall asleep early or nap so I'm getting really tired. I also can't sleep on my front mostly because my breasts hurt so much.

Gees, I must be getting sympathy pains from all of you in regards to sleep. The past two nights have been horrid. Of course, doesn't help with my younger ones waking me up in the middle of the night. Sad thing is though, I am up for an hour after.

When my nausea was at its worst I couldn't sleep on my stomach either, I found that sleeping on my side was the best option.

oh ya, I also found that I would crave something for days, then when I finally ate it I wouldn't want it anymore and the thought of eating it made me totally turned off food.

hmm maybe this baby is a girl.. she likes to change her mind lol
