From last few nights im just not able to sleep at all, eyes open till late. My period is delayed by 4 days too so my mind is going everywhere. Did anyone face this as an early sign?
Oh, absolutely! It's just your body preparing you for the sleepless nights after the baby arrives, haha! I had it in my first trimester and now in my third, I'm practically a night watchman.
Actually, according to my pregnancy tracker app, progesterone spikes in early pregnancy can cause both daytime fatigue and night-time insomnia. It's a very common symptom listed on most apps. I used to track my sleep quality daily on my smartwatch!
Yes, sleeplessness can definitely be an early sign due to all the hormonal changes happening inside. I had it too, but I tried to stay positive and read books instead of worrying about the clock. It usually gets better as your body adjusts, so hang in there!
Hormonal shifts can definitely disturb your sleep cycle in the early weeks. However, if your insomnia is accompanied by extreme fatigue or anxiety, please discuss it with your gynac. Don't take any over-the-counter sleeping pills at all during this time.
Look, insomnia can happen due to hormonal changes, but it can also just be stress or acidity. Don't assume you are pregnant just because you can't sleep. Wait for your missed period and do a proper test to be absolutely sure.
Haan na, early pregnancy hormones can totally mess up your sleep! Mere saath bhi ho raha tha starting me, I used to stay awake till 3 AM. Try drinking some warm milk and keeping your room cool, it helps a bit.
