Can't sleep and hitting myself

Hello,
I have a 10 month old daughter and am 4 weeks pregnant with my second.
My daughter has finally started to sleep better and for long stretches through the night.
I find it very easy to fall asleep, but I keep on waking in the night (sometimes due to my daughter waking, sometimes by myself). When I wake up in the night it can take up to 4 hours to get back to sleep which obviously leaves me really frustrated. In the past week I have got so angry that I have hit my head with my hand several times due to frustration.
What is wrong with me? I would never self harm but just feel so frustrated. I am in a loving relationship and love being with my daughter. I am still on maternity leave so don't even have much stress, I don't understand why I am having trouble getting to sleep. Any help or advice would be appreciated xx
