Ah, what am I thinking with the title, I knows it's not random if its the same time every morning! Haha

Me! 34+3, and I wake up every morning between 4-5am, for various reasons. Last week, it was hip pain, today it was stuffed nose. I struggle to go back to sleep, even though I am really tired Confused

I had the same thing in my previous pregnancy, so I am resigned to this now being the norm until the baby arrives...

I had this for about a month or so during late 2tri and early 3tri. Except I couldn't go back to sleep. I called it my witching hour. Bloody horrible.

Now at 34 weeks. I cant move without waking up. I'm very tired!

Total sympathy OP. I've got awful insomnia (37+6) I will go to bed but wake up with restless legs and wide awake after about an hour and a half. Then I'm awake until about 5 am. I don't know whether I'm coming or going!

Shirkingfromhome · 23/11/2015 13:07

Me too. Although I get this before I even know I'm pregnant (which I've now cottoned on to) all the way to the end. It's craps and even worse now this is dc2.

It really doesn't help when people say "oh your body must be in training for all those sleepness nights" Angry

mrsmugoo · 23/11/2015 18:15

Yes I've got the dreaded 4-6am preggo insomnia too but as I've generally had at least 5 hours sleep by this stage I count myself lucky and know that this is nothing like what it's like with a newborn not even close Grin

Glad its not just me! Sorry to hear some of you find it hard to get back to sleep. Sometimes I find rolling my ankles helps get back to sleep (I don't know why)

Mrsmugoo, I keep thinking that! Its my first and I think I'm in for a shock. Mat leave starting in a few weeks so will sleep as much as possible then! X

I usually wake up around then due to horrific nightmares. Last night in my dream I had the baby and it was attacked by a dog.

Luciferbox · 23/11/2015 21:54

I did with DS1. Around 4.45am everyday from about 32 wks. I watched a lot of box sets. You have my sympathies.

MrsCrimshaw · 24/11/2015 02:08

hello world, my restless legs are twitching to buggery and I am wide awake!!

Cheshirehello79 · 24/11/2015 02:25

ive been in bed since 9pm and I'm still awake - this has been going on since 36 weeks I'm 38+6 today

Sighing · 24/11/2015 04:28

Hi. Yes. All the way through this pregnancy (now 26 weeks). 3 am today. Occasionally I get back to sleep (msybe 3 nights a week).
I just wish I could get motivated to do things in this time!

DowntonDiva · 24/11/2015 06:39

I'm only 22 weeks and this weekend I've had a 1.30am, 3.30am. Cannot get back to sleep for love nor money!

Last two days have been a glorious 6am - I feel so much better for it. I generally walk around feeling like I have hideous jet lag Shock

MrsCrimshaw · 24/11/2015 11:18

I feel hungover without the bonus of the fun beforehand!

Bixxy · 24/11/2015 15:19

Yes here too! Last time I remember it was later on in preg that I started with insomnia, but I'm 15 weeks now and I've had it for a while. Generally tossing and turning between 4 and 6am Sad

ChicaMomma · 24/11/2015 17:12

2am, then again about 5am and that's it for the day.. oddly though i dont feel that tired. Also have an 18 mth old so i guess i'm just used to the disrupted nights!

mrsmugoo · 24/11/2015 18:27

I'm the same chicamomma - I think since having my DS I can survive on much less sleep than I used to!
