Question

helo ladies

Last night i couldn't sleep..felt awake ..whenevr I changed postion. legs felt tired and now i have a headache and neck ache. Neck feels hard ..is this all normal? I usualy sleep like a baby, and now i feel awake all night...is this a part of the joys of pregnancy?

Answer 1

oh yes, I am 14 weeks and already feel like that some nights. try sleeping with a body pillow, that helps me out sometimes.

Answer 2

Yep, thats one of the joys of pregnancy, and it only gets worse. They say that the farther along you get the harder it is to sleep because your body is getting prepared for a newborn being around and you dont get much sleep with them. But i feel the same way, im 38 weeks and my legs get restless and tired and my neck gets sore and my back aches! I hate it, but its all worth it in the end!

Answer 3

Absolutely. I had pain in my legs and hips from the second trimester on. Sometimes it actually was more comfortable to sleep sitting up with a bunch of pillows behind me. I recommend prenatal yoga for the pains in your neck & legs. Most yoga gyms have a prenatal yoga class that is tailored to your needs.



I like the link in my source because it explains how to do the yoga poses.



Good luck!

Answer 4

i am 24 weeks and i am feeling the same. i wake up evry night at about 3 and then i cant go back to slep till 5.00. at times the baby is kicking or there is some sort of anxiety or i have back ache and i have to wake up every time i change sides so sleeping is not so good anymore.

Answer 5

Yeah this is one of the many joys of pregnancy. You can never get comfortable when you go to bed and then once you do you gotta get up and pee. And you prolly layed wrong and your neck hurts and worked it's way up to your head like a tension headache.
