Insomnia anyone?

Anyone else currently suffering insomnia and jumpy legs? 11 week old will soon wake for a feed and I've had no sleep and don't see it happening tonight until OH takes DD in the morning. I just can't switch off and it's definitely getting worse.

I've still got low iron which gives me jumpy legs but I'm on tablets so nothing more I can do. I take magnesium too.

Have you had your thyroid investigated? Thyroid problems really common post birth. Mine went undiagnosed for months and I had terrible insomnia. Mostly resolved by itself after 9 months but definitely get it checked if you can.
