I am going crazy from lack of sleep and just wondered if anyone has any insomnia tips??
I have two DDs (3 and 1), both are great sleepers and have slept through the night since they were tiny, so why can't I??? I go to sleep fine and have always slept well until morning, except that if anything wakes me up in the night that's it and I won't go back to sleep. Recently DD2 has taken to snuffling and squeaking a bit in her sleep, or letting out a cry. She doesn't wake up though. It's always around 3am (she obviously comes into a light sleep around then) and I wake up with a jolt and am then completely unable to go back to sleep. Here I am, it's 6am and I've been effectively up since 3.30am (tossed and turned until 4.45 then got up as it's pointless).
Help... maybe relaxation tecniques to help me get back to sleep? Any ideas??
I'm horrible when I'm tired and snap at the girls and DH non stop.
