Feel really tired but finding it hard to drift off to sleep??

Its really getting me down as i feel so tired and ready for bed but when i get in there i can not sleep at all. When i eventually get to sleep i wake up alot and toss and turn majority of the night.

Are you in the last or 2nd trimester stage of your pregnancy?

At times i also find it hard to wind-down at night. I think it's the anxiety of the body changing so rapidly it's physically tirering but emotionally draining.

Is this also going to be your 1st child ?

Personally as soon as my son "who is 4yrs" gets his head down to bed i start to unwind and start falling asleep soon after. LOL.

Im only 7 weeks. but i can not sleep at all. last night i probably had 2/3 hours. which just made me feel worse! i am feeling exhausted. I think its because of a previous mc although i have stopped worrying and stressing. lack of sleep may be due to my mind working over time!

Hey Parkin, I was the same last week. I'm on week 7w + 2 days. I think it's just anxiety, and don't forget our bodies are changing massively. Are you worried about anything else? Here if you need to talk x
