No tips but I'm in the same boat. I'm 19 weeks. Got to sleep easily but ds woke at 2ish & I'm now wide awake. Arghh. So frustrating

Yup, I suffered from insomnia in both my previous pregnancies. Always manage to get back to sleep about 6, half an our before I need to get up.

Hips are killing me tonight too, moan moan moan Grin

Me too. I toss and turn for about two hours before dropping off then wake up every hour needing to pee. It's the least fun..

Not much help I know... Blush

Is physical discomfort a problem? I've found sleeping on top of a duvet as well as under one massively helpful, and those pregnancy pillows are worth it. I am now overdue, and having my body really properly comfortable when I drop off still reduces the amount I need to wake and up wee.

Bath before bed and hot milk also good for winding down.
