Living in Canberra the overnight lows are pretty damn chilly - like -4 today - I leave ours on 13 overnight - sounds low but believe me it does kick in.
Anyway, I put the vapouriser on in our room for the last couple of weeks and it has been great - I think I am getting addicted to the white noise of it bubbling away.
Me too Kimbaz - 2 other kiddies in the house - can't afford to lose anymore sleep than necessary!!!
Maybe you could try chewing gum, sucking on butter menthols, hard boiled lollies or mints when your mouth is dry instead of drinking water to lessen the toilet trips??
oh the toilet joys. I have found that the more time goes on the more i pee. Also i find myself pretty much still being nearly all the way asleep when i get up to pee now. Try and keep it that way tho, try not to wake urself up too much so that its easier to go back to sleep. I always drink a 750ml pump during the night. Nothing is going to help me not drink that much coz its just the way my body does things. Its just one of them joys of pregnancy. Hopefully ur body will settle into a better weeing routine so u can get a little more shut eye.
How about keeping the ducts on in the rest of the house, and turning the duct off in your room? Overheating will cause a dry throat. 18 is quite high for overnight. We have ours set at 10 overnight. Try maybe setting it at 14, and go from there.
kim there is stuff call biotene you can get from the chemsit in mouthwash form or a gel that helps keep the mouth lubricated, maybe try rising your mouth with it before bed and if needed during the night instead of drinking heaps of water
