Insomnia

[alisia]

Hello
I have had insomnia since last Thursday- 5days :sleeping: and have rung my OB who says she wont presribe anything until absoloutly necessary. She suggested Valerian tablest which I tried using with no luck. I go to bed, relaxe am tired and only sleep for 1-2 hours and wake up straight away and alert. I have an 18mth old and 2 jobs and am 6 1/2 months. What can I do?:hair:

Hi,

I have been similar but not so bad - you poor thing! I also have a 3 y.o and 2 y.o and am 13 weeks. I have tried a few drops of an oil I have called "relax and unwind" - I checked all the oils were OK during pregnancy - and I had the best nights sleep I've had in a while last night. Even though I woke I found I wasn't lying staring at the ceiling and listening to my husband snoring for as long! I managed to get back to sleep easily. Just be careful that any oils you use are safe.

Good luck..........
