I am currently going to be around 10pm-ish and unable to fall asleep until at least 1am. I then wake up at least three or four times a night after that to go for a wee. Husband's alarm goes off around 6.45am.
My main problem is that we're practising hypnobirthing and listen to the accompanying music CD at night before we go to sleep - I'm worried that I'm starting to associate the music with frustration and desperation to sleep, rather than with relaxation!
I've tried burning essential oils, drinking warm milk, using a pregnancy pillow, taking warm baths, getting up and doing something different elsewhere in the house, listening to different music, reading etc. Husband reads hypno scripts to me, which is relaxing but doesn't actually help send me to sleep. We've swapped sides of the bed in anticipation of the baby's arrival (can't fit Moses basket on my usual side) and I don't think this has helped. Also my husband doses off as soon as his head hits the pillow, which just makes me more frustrated and jealous!
Any advice or recommendations very gratefully received...
