Hi
Is anyone else experiencing insomnia?
I have had it once a week for the past 4 weeks & always on a different night.
I know they say it's common in the third trimester, I'm only in the second.
Anyone got any recommendations how to help with insomnia?
Gonna be fun at work tomorrow my alarm goes off in under 3hr & I am still not tired & sleep shows no sign of coming

If you can't sleep at least rest your eyes & body.
Look up all the good sleep hygiene tips.

@Anjied had it throughout my life.

First tip is to look at sleep hygiene - it helps but may not be a complete cure - and the second is to stop worrying.

If it goes on for more than a couple of days in a row, you have to drive to work and you are exhausted then you are going to have to take a sick day.
