Not sleeping and dreaming in 2ww

Hi guys. Just wondered if anyone else in their 2ww is struggling to sleep too. Feel ok and pretty relaxed just have not been able to sleep much since transfer and am dreaming a lot. Not sure what all about. Maybe am more anxious than thought and coming out at night. Oh 🤨😩

Hope you all well ☺️

I have this too! I can sleep ok but wake up numerous times and have the strangest dreams ever. I think it’s a side effect of the medication - another one to add to the list!

I wouldnt worry too much, hopefully they will settle down and you’re definitely not the only one!

Wishing you lots of luck for the remainder of your 2ww xx

Thank you. That is good to know am not only one☺️ let’s hope it improves. Hope u well 😊

I think anxiety definitely shows up in sleep even when we are not consciously anxious during the day. I was waking up for hours in the night for the first week after my egg collection whilst waiting to find out if we had any blastocysts suitable for testing, and I couldn’t even really blame it on drugs, as I wasn’t on any by then! My conscious mind was worrying about work but my sleep went back to normal once we found out we had four blasts, and work didn’t change! Brains are funny things!

Hey.

I’m also experiencing the same thing. I’m having loads of dreams and waking up at 2:30am with my mind racing.

I have 2 more sleeps till my test. So nervous.

Good luck ladies😘xx

Yes I had the same problem. Hard to drop off and crazy dreams/ nightmares. Definitely think it was anxiety in my case. Maybe you could try a bit of guided meditation or something before bedtime to help you fall into a more restful sleep? x
