Only 7 weeks and not sleeping at night!
What is wrong with me? For the past 2 weeks I have been waking up in the middle of the night and not falling back asleep. Does this happen to anyone else? Any advice on how to overcome this?
I am going to the doc tomorrow, maybe she can shed some light!

Re: Only 7 weeks and not sleeping at night!
are you waking up to go to the bathroom? That is what happens to me. I wake up once a night to pee and then i go back to sleep. Sometimes it takes 2 minutes, sometimes it takes an hour
maybe try keeping a note pad next to your bed and writing down what you are thinking about. that could help you fall back to sleep!
Let me know what the doc says!

This happens to me all the time. But I was always a horrible sleeper, now it's worse.

Re: Only 7 weeks and not sleeping at night!
get used to it. Seriously I have not had a FULL nights sleep since 2 weeks before I found out I was PG. I am 12 weeks today and it is getting worse. Last night I was up from 3-7:15 this morning. I asked the dr last night and she said I can take Benydrel I was jumping for you. I just need to go buy it.

Re: Only 7 weeks and not sleeping at night!
yes, welcome to my world. Not only do I wake up in the middle of the night for at least a couple of hours, it takes me about that long to fall asleep when I go to bed initially. I keep saying how tired I am and everyone keeps saying, just wait til the baby comes.

Ugh, the sleeping situation is just horrible. I can't fall asleep for hours and then wake up really early. I am always tired.

Re: Only 7 weeks and not sleeping at night!
I had really bad insomnia in the beginning, and then around 8 weeks I started to get up to pee 4 times a night. Its getting a little better now.

Ditto...If I don't get up to go to the bathroom, I'm up tossing and turning and my mind races about all the things I want to do, get, etc....

Re: Only 7 weeks and not sleeping at night!
This happens to me all the time. During the first trimester, I woke up every night, typically around 2 or 3 am because I felt nauseous, had to pee, and/or was starving. I usually couldn't fall back alseep for several hours. I'm still sleeping poorly in the 2nd trimester. It sucks.

I have never slept this poorly in my life...being pregnant has brought serious insomnia! :) Not to mention the weird dreams I have once I do fall asleep!!

Re: Only 7 weeks and not sleeping at night!
I have been waking up in the middle of the night to go to the bathroom since about 5 weeks...sometimes I go right to bed, other times it takes a little while. One night I woke up at 2am and didn't go back to bed until 5am...that was terrible!

Re: Only 7 weeks and not sleeping at night!
Since my IVF, I've been getting up to pee everynight. Now it is about 3 times a night. In the beginning, getting up would keep me a wake for awhile afterwards. Now, It more like I am sleepwalking and I go straight to bed without a problem.

Re: Only 7 weeks and not sleeping at night!
Update: I went to the dr. and she didn't really offer any advice on this...just to empty my bladder before I go to sleep, which I already do. Oh well, i guess I'm getting used to these sleepless nights!
