i keep having dreams about what my baby will look like and how labor is lol all the time

[erwintipton]

I have dreams about water and the ocean walking on the pears and I have to wake up in the middle of night to pee . Ive notice I cant sleep on my belly any more . I can sleep on my side with my shoulders leaning towards the bed . but I leave the TV on at night with valume turn down so that works

@speratum the only thing my doctor could tell me was try tylenol pm it does help you fall asleep but not keep you asleep always. also i baught the sample size of sleep body kit from bath and body works and it honestly helps too .

@speratum hi,i am sorry that you are not getting the answers you need....Have you tried "sitting up" in an easy chair?....maybe even laying on the floor with pillows supporting your hips and stomach....your doctor should be giving you better answers...try eating a lot of turkey...that may help.

I have all the pillows in the world, but I just can't sleep at night (nor during the day). I can't find a comfortable position. When I'm sleeping on my side, it hurts and I feel like I'm squeezing those poor babies inside me. (I'm expecting twins. I'm in the 27th week). Sleeplessness is driving me mad! My doctor can't give me any good advice, just tells me that I must hold on. Could somebody please give me some more tips?

Hi thanks again for these vids I learn so Much and I'm not even married! Also I heard it's bad to even sleep while you're pregangnet because You might be asleep when the baby is ready to leave his mom'mas body-house. Thanks & dears, Kenng
