For the last few weeks I have had incredible trouble sleeping of a night. I can't get comfortable at all, I toss and turn, I get heartburn, I get hot flushes & haven't been sleeping for much more than an hour at a time and (TMI ALERT.............embarrassing but) the hemorrhoids I have developed seem to play up something shocking - but all this happens only of a night! If I try and nap during the day when DD is napping, I don't have these problems (which I often don't have time to do as that's when I tidy & get things done without a little one under foot). It's to the point I dread going to bed of a night even though my eyes are hanging out of my head. Has anyone else been going through the same thing? How have you overcome it? Please help. Somethings I have tried have been to have a nice warm shower before bed, using creams on the hemorrhoids and drinking plenty of water (don't even know if that would help... but does stop most of the leg/toe cramps I was getting), packing pillows around me everywhere, even sleeping elsewhere (ie in the lounge - don't know why but sometimes this helps me fall asleep for an hour or two).
