I found there wasn't much I could do to get round it, my dr prescribed Ativan when I was having huge problems getting to sleep in my first pregnancy. I'd take it every few nights to get a good rest in when my insomnia was bad. I have never been a good sleeper though.</p> <p>Hope it improves ... Try and rest when you can otherwise! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/insomnia-5#post-1071367 Sat, 07 Sep 2013 07:02:09 +0000 Ash 1071367@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I haven't found anything to help mine (without meds). I was up at 130 the other day and decided at 330 to just have some cereal and lay on the couch :P </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/insomnia-5#post-1071355 Sat, 07 Sep 2013 06:49:23 +0000 MamaBehr 1071355@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I had it really bad with my first pregnancy, and it sort of worked itself out. This time around it is more that I get up early and can't go back to sleep, especially when I get 6+ hours in a row (aka this morning). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/insomnia-5#post-1071350 Sat, 07 Sep 2013 06:44:26 +0000 MrsTiz 1071350@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My dr told me Benadryl was okay, so if I have a few rough nights in a row il take one and finally rest </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/insomnia-5#post-1071333 Sat, 07 Sep 2013 06:11:52 +0000 Sugar.Biscuit 1071333@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I was up early too! Its the pits. My dr had unisom(?) On my list of approved meds for sleep. Otherwise your body should work it out on its own. Maybe more pillow support. Last time I had problem I added an extra pillow &amp; it helped a lot! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/insomnia-5#post-1071319 Sat, 07 Sep 2013 05:52:11 +0000 Espion 1071319@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I read a ton about breastfeeding, went on Wikipedia tangents, and stalked Hellobee! It seems like some weird nature's way of preparing you for late night/early morning feedings. (It's 3 am here!) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/insomnia-5#post-1071315 Sat, 07 Sep 2013 05:46:58 +0000 swedishfish 1071315@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I never found a remedy for pregnancy insomnia. I played games on my iPad once and got up extra early most days to do chores and keep the dog company. Hope you find a remedy that works for you! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/insomnia-5#post-1071311 Sat, 07 Sep 2013 04:51:38 +0000 MrsH 1071311@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>For the third day in a row I'm up at four and can't get back to sleep. I feel tired and just want to go back to bed. This morning I decided to stop waking DH up with my tossing and turning and have gotten a couple of hours of work in. Yay?!?</p> <p>Des anyone have any remedies for pregnancy insomnia? I normally can sleep for 8-10 hours with no issues. I &lt;3 sleep. If you had pregnancy insomnia and talked with your dr, what did you dr say? My next appointment isn't for a couple of weeks. </p>
