[peanutbuttery24]

Hey all, so not sure about these meds. Really tempted not to take them as took one before bed and had crap night of light restless sleep. Now feel awful! my lo is 7 wks old. when is best to take them? XX

Give them time, my gp warned me the first week I may experience some unpleasant side effects.

For me was feeling sick, headaches and really sleepy but unable to switch off.

3 weeks in and feeling loads better.

I take mine at 8pm every night.

If it's causing insomnia it's perfectly ok to take it in the morning.

That's rotten. As if you're not sleep deprived enough with a 7 week old! I take mine in the morning. Find I'm more relaxed in the evening that way. Hope you feel better soon x

Hi there, I found the morning to be better though the first few days were strange as I was very spaced out. But once I sort of got into a routine morning was best .

Congratulations on your baby!
