Trouble sleeping in first trimester?

[Bernadine]

I've never had trouble sleeping before, but I'm waking up all through the night.  Is this pregnancy-related?

[loira]

I've been up multiple times a night for the duration of this pregnancy. In first tri it was mainly anxiety, having to pee, feeling sick. Now it's backache, having to pee, baby moving. The peeing thing is really the main reason, lol.

some nights i sleep like a rock, and some nights i toss and turn and wake up and can't get back to sleep. it's annoying.

It happened to me. I started taking Diclegis for nausea and it has helped me sleep so much better. You can try Unisom, Tylenol PM, or Benadryl if you need to.

I've had trouble sleeping off and on throughout the pregnancy. Mostly getting up to pee and then not being able to get back to sleep. I don't know if it's hormone-related or anxiety.

I had trouble sleeping on and off for a month or two. I'm pretty sure it was anxiety but I don't think it's uncommon. Could be hormones...blame everything on the hormones

I had the worst time sleeping in first tri due to nasal congestion. I woke up feeling like I was suffocating because my nose was so plugged up, so I sipped water all through the night and thus had to pee constantly too. The congestion passed, only to be replaced by other sleep-interrupting things - leg cramps, heartburn, more having to pee.

With DS I had a terrible time sleeping in first tri because my boobs were unbelievably sore. This time I haven't slept well in ages for no apparent reason. I vote normal, but awful.

I've had a rough time sleeping this pregnancy too. Mainly due to anxiety and having to pee a lot, but now I keep having an issue where I roll over too quickly and then get extreme round ligament pain that wakes me up. It hurts so bad!

Yes!!! I still take unisom every night

Unisom really helped me in the first trimester. For a while I was sleeping very well, and recently I started waking up after about 5 hours. Usually it's to Lee and then I can't fall back asleep.

It's the having to pee issue for me. Once I wake up it's super hard to get back to sleep. Usually I'm awake for the day by 5:30am at the latest. That's why I pass out by 9-9:30pm every night.

[tiptoetulips]

I would wake up with horribl hot flashes and not be able to fall back asleep that started early in pregnancy and tapered off second tri. It's kicked back up at the end.

I had that with D. Just random wake ups. Some medicines will help, but I think some of it might not be recommended in first tri. I know unisom is okay.

I had some problems with this baby, and it drastically improved when I got a very thick mattress pad for the bed.

Yep, I had that with DD and with this one. I was so tired first tri but had a lot of trouble getting quality sleep

[winecheery]

I totally had that this time, and last. It did pass for me!

I've been having that issue. I am taking unisom every night and it helps some, and also helps the nausea.
