Im in my second tri and honestly i just cant fall asleep at night. Either my back hurts or i keep turning side to side, and then bathroom trips on top of that. How do u all manage to actually sleep? pls share what worked for u.
Honestly I struggled so much, I felt like I was awake the whole night turning sides. What helped me was stopping water 1 hr before bed so I wasnt running to washroom every hour.
My amma always said warm milk at night helps and it did calm me down. But if you are not sleeping for days together do mention it to your gynac na, sometimes they check if anything else is going on.
I used to overthink at night which made it worse honestly. I started listening to soft music with earphones and it distracted my brain enough to fall asleep. Try it na.
Sleep on your left side with a pillow between your knees, that one thing changed everything for me both pregnancies. And keep a small pillow under your belly in later months, gives so much support.
Yaar same problem here. Actually a warm bath before bed and dim lights made me sleepy faster. Also no phone scrolling in bed, that was killing my sleep.
A proper pregnancy pillow (the long C shape one) is worth the money trust me. I used to prop myself slightly and that reduced the acidity that was waking me up.
