im in my 6th month and i literally cant find one comfortable position, kamar starts paining and then im just awake at 3am scrolling. any tricks that actually worked for u all? im so tired during the day now.
Listen, stop scrolling on your phone till midnight first. Drink a glass of warm milk, put a pillow between your knees, and just sleep on your left side. Acidity is usually the main culprit, so don't eat heavy food at night.
Managing office and pregnancy fatigue is so tough, I get it. I made a rule to finish dinner by 7:30 PM so acidity doesn't ruin my sleep. Also, keep a small warm water bottle near you, it really saves time and helps you relax quickly.
When I had severe sleep issues, I directly called my coordinator at Cloudnine hospital. The doctors and staff there were so helpful, they gave me safe breathing exercises and told me exactly how to position myself. Definitely ask your hospital team, they have great resources.
I used to track my sleep cycle on my pregnancy app and it suggested a proper C-shaped pregnancy pillow. It literally changed my life! Try tracking your screen time too, turning off the phone 1 hour before sleeping really helps.
Please don't force yourself into uncomfortable positions trying to sleep. I was always so scared of sleeping wrong, but my doctor assured me that sleeping on the left side is safest for baby's blood flow. Just take it easy, listen to your body, and rest whenever you can.
