One thing that I am not enjoying about this pregnancy is insomnia.. It doesn't happen every night.. But enough to be really annoying.
Tonight/this morning was the worst so far. John stayed up late watching footy (comiserating the end of the season for Richmond) and came to bed at 1:40am... Of course I woke up as he drifted off into a deep deep sleep. I tried for 3.5 hours to get back to sleep and then got to the point that if I slept, I wouldn't be able to get up in the morning.. So I got up at 5. This would be ok if I'd had more than three hours sleep..
Little M has kinder at 12:30 so I'm hoping to have a nap then.
I am gonna need to work out some kind of solution to this insomnia thing. Maybe caffeine needs to be cut out after lunch (noooo!)..
Yawn!
insomnia, restless legs, cramps etc are all related and it is a magnesium calcium deficiency. Take a specific supplement and I'm sure your insomnia will improve.
ReplyDeleteThank you Lisa! Angelic creature that you are.. I have started popping a mag/cal before bed and I have started to notice the difference. My new pre-bed snack is celery and cream cheese, hopefully that will help too. :) Thanks again!
