Im about 8weeks pregnant with my first child. My doctors appointment isnt until next Thursday when im half way thru my 9th week. Im sleeping horribly cant get comfy enough laying down and wake up several times thru out the night on top of waking up early. Any recommendations on what might work? Ill try anything

Lavender on my pillow and bottom of my feet really helps me to relax and sleep better!! essential oils found in health food stores! I still wake up 3 times a night to pee but if I don't use it I'm up all night!!! Hope it helps!!

Thanks ladies. Trying the pillow thing which helps a little but i am so restless when i try to fall back asleep.It takes forever. Hopefully it passes soon and i can get some rest at least for a little while

First trimester I slept great I was so tired in first trimester.

Now sleeping can be tough and I'm only 6mths but I've a huge bump.  
I wedge a pillow between my legs n use pillows to make myself comfy.
Also go to bed before your tired
