Yawwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwn!

Hi ladies!

Its the middle of the night here and Im sat in bed yet again with the laptop for the umpteenth time trying to sleep.... and its horrid...

I am now 4 weeks post op and my getting to sleep is getting worse and worse... and I am taking longer and longer to get to sleep at night :mornincoffee: :mornincoffee:

I AM SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO TIRED but I cant sleep..

When I go to bed I just lie awake for hours and hours it was 5 am the other morning and I didnt get up til lunchtime!!! Thanks heavens Im a stay at home mum at the mo (of doggies and kitties!!! Kids grown up and flown the nest....) I would be fired from a job by now as I just wouldnt be able to get to work on time!!!!!

But I just lie there in the dark all hot and bothered mind racing on my back looking at the ceiling and it is sooooooooooooooooo depressing... Tonight it is 2 am and I am dreading switching off the light...

Did any of you ladies have this problem of sleeping after ba day and how long til you were back to normal???

I dont remember having this problem with my first ba 3 years ago!!!!

Anyway good night from a very sleepy

I can sympathise with you Lea as I suffer from insomnia too - and like you, it can be 4 or 5 o'clock in the morning before I finally manage to drop off. Fortunately, for me at least, it seems to happen in fits and starts and might last for a couple of weeks and then I'll go back to sleeping normally again (which for me is around 6 hours per night). Hopefully it is only transitory for you and you will soon get back to your normal sleep pattern.

im an insomnia sufferer too, and dont normally fall asleep without help.

its horrible. Hope your sleeping gets back on track soon x

Same here. Have been on prescription sleeping tablets for a long time now and can't get to sleep without them.

Have you tried any of the herbal sleep teas? I use the Clipper one which could help xxx
