As title suggests, has anyone else ever had this snd got any tips?! I was pregnant last year but ended in MC and approx five weeks pregnant again... I had the same last year couldn't get to sleep and was waking up around 4am! Happening again now!! I don't know if it's my total anxiety or something else.... any tips massively appreciated x

Ugh I hear you OP it's so annoying isnt it. I'm 6 weeks and have been having the same thing.
A cool, very dark room, no phones/screens before bed, and if you do wake up don't go on phone, read a book with a low light and if you still can't sleep get up, make a drink and see if you feel tired again.

@BunAndOven @Mylasmummy2102 thanks guys! Good to know I'm not alone! I remember it being my only symptom last year but it got to the point where I dreaded going to bed! Feeling a bit that way now! I literally wake up and just lay there uncomfortable!!! I think I've heard of this before x

Yes same! I have hypothyroidism so I tend to get tired quite quickly but I wake up at 4 every morning and cannot get back to sleep it's very frustrating! Xx

@Mylasmummy2102 you'd think if we were tired we would sleep!!! I'm only a few days off you! Do you have any other symptoms yet, I had shocking sickness in my first pregnancy so now I'm panicking I don't feel sick yet! I have cramps and pulling type pain on and off and a constant back ache! Xx

@AnxiousAnnie86 this is my third pregnancy I have bad sickness already I had it teller bad with my 2nd too! And I have sore boobs and off my food! The sickness is probably my worst to be fair. I know I'd love a good nights sleep 😴
