Insomnia during pregnancy - anyone else got it?

I'm in my third trimester and keep waking up super-early - 3.30am this morning - and then not getting back to sleep at all for the rest of the night.
I wouldn't say there's anything in particular keeping me awake - no heartburn, discomfort etc - just my body thinking it's time to get up or something!
Maybe I should use the time to clean out the kitchen cupboards instead of being online...
Anyone else experienced sleep probs in their 3rd trimester?

I had it the whole time I was pregnant with all three of mine, hideous, not pregnant at the moment though, just bored and on a night shift. Wink The only thing that helped was listening to my i pod!

Haha I could ha wrote that post for you!

Had ot really ba in first trimester, back to normal in the second, am now 38 weeks and have been waking at 4 am. Luckily I've started my mat leave so have been going back tk Bedford a sneaky hour later on but would much prefer just to be able to sleep when the rest of the house does!

Hello! Yup, been having serious sleep issues almost the whole of my pg but it's got worse since getting into 3rd tri! Have been awake since 4am this morning but only just gave in and got up at five. From what I can figure out it's, unfortunately, quite a normal thing and thankfully now that I am on leave I can nap during the day if needed. I'm currently trying to ignore the cat that's purring in my face that thinks it's feeding time just cos I'm up.
