Sleepless in Gig Harbor, yet exhausated!

Hi all! So, I am asking those of you who have been pregnant, or who have gone days with no sleep. . . . I am in desperate need of the stuff! I haven't been able to sleep since the awful news of the baby having open spinal bifida. Though I know things are fine now, I still can't sleep. And I can't sleep at all during the day. So, any sleep help remedies are greatly welcomed and appreciated. Yes, I've tried the milk and the tea and even tylonol PM. Nothing seems to really help! Sigh. . . I need and want sleep! There's only so much of a happy mom these days and I have been pretty calm regarding. . . But, I want to continue to be a good mom and do something before my patience wears out! So, please help if you can!

Thanks a million!

Hey Brianne! I remember those days, but mine didn't start until about 7 months. Have you tried rooibos tea? It's caffeine free, really good for you, and supposedly helps with sleep. Also, I think I would steer clear of the Tylenol PM...never know what it could do to the baby...just to be safe.

Hope you're doing well. Would love to hear from you.
