Re: Insomnia during pregnancy
The Nanny is on Nick at Nite and that has become the method which I measure my sleepless nights. When DH wakes up in the mornings, he says "How many Nannies did you watch?"
Last night was none. 
The night before was 1.
Last week I had a 3.5 Nanny night.

Re: Insomnia during pregnancy
Yup! And I had it with DS too. I usually fall asleep ok but each time I get up to pee it takes me forever to fall back asleep if I do at all. It comes and goes so I long for the days when it goes :o)

Re: Insomnia during pregnancy
Yep! It was bad for the first tri and part of the second. It went away for like the second part of the second tri and the first half of the third tri, but now it's back. 
Last night, though, I totally slept through the night, which is like unheard of at 38 weeks!

This was my issue my first trimester and part of my second. I used to get up to pee...toss and turn for hours and then eventually fall back asleep. Then i started to go to the couch after peeing and fell asleep right away. But once i bought the snoogle....for some i can fall back asleep instantly even though i go to the bathroom 4 times a night!!! Its been my lifesaver!

Re: Insomnia during pregnancy
I feel like I had trouble sleeping since the first minute is got pregnant it seems. Falling asleep isn't a prob- I get in a good 2-3 hours, but once 3am rolls around, it is all downhill

Re: Insomnia during pregnancy
At the beginning I would fall asleep at the drop of a hat and stay asleep for 10-12 hours if I could.
Now I am going into 12 weeks preggo and all of the sudden I wake up for 2-3 hours in the middle of the night atleast two to three times a week.
It is killing me especially since I go back to work next week!!

Thats me exactly. I am ready to go to sleep by 10PM. However, come 2:30AM I'm awake and can't go back to sleep until about 5:00AM. It's SOOOO annoying. I hate it
ETA: And I'm only 26.5 weeks - does this mean it gets worse?!

Re: Insomnia during pregnancy
I haven't slept through the night in weeks. I usually fall asleep around 11pm and am awake an hour later. Then it takes me hours to fall back to sleep...Last week I slept for 2 hours and then was up from 2am-9am and then slept again until 2pm....It is killing me. I have tried everything. Last saturday I took 2 benadryl and slept for 12 hours. I was like a zombie after that. I have bad restless legs and then i get a rash at night and I am done...Only 53 more days to go....

Re: Insomnia during pregnancy
Ugh- yes! In the 1st trimester I would wake up at like 3 or 4 and couldn't get back to sleep. Now, I am just so uncomfortable that I am up all night rolling around.
