Third trimester and my neend is completely gone, keep turning side to side all night with this big pet. By morning im so thaka hua. How do you all manage to sleep?
Sleep? What is that? In my 3rd trimester, my baby literally starts an aerobics class inside my belly the moment I close my eyes. Just prop up 5 different pillows and pray you get at least 3 hours, haha!
Get yourself a good C-shaped or U-shaped pregnancy pillow immediately, it is a complete game changer. Also, stop drinking water 2 hours before bed so you don't have to keep running to the washroom.
With a 9-to-6 job, you need good sleep. Keep your screen time zero at least an hour before sleeping, and do some light breathing exercises to wind down quickly.
When I was staying at my parents' place, my mother would make sure I had a peaceful, dark room and would gently massage my head with warm oil. It made me sleep like a baby.
I am struggling with this so much in my second trimester, I just keep tossing and turning! Does anyone else find it impossible to sleep on their left side all night?
Medically, sleeping on your left side is highly recommended as it improves blood flow to the placenta. My doctor also told me to avoid sleeping flat on my back after 20 weeks to prevent dizziness.
My saas told me to drink a warm glass of milk with a little cardamon before bed, and honestly, it really helps calm the mind. Also, try keeping a regular soft pillow between your knees.
