Can't sleep

1 reply

Sigrid Guest ·
I'm 34 weeks pregnant now, and I can't sleep at night, though I can during the day. I'm also running a cold, have to cough up phlegm, and sometimes even vomit from it. The doctor just prescribes a cough syrup that doesn't help. I'm going crazy because I can't sleep. During the day I can sleep, but then my partner wakes me up, and I still have to do household chores. He doesn't understand that I can't sleep at night. So I sleep during the day. Does anyone have a tip on how I can sleep better at night? Sigrid

    Oh, that's such a mess, Sigrid. That cough syrup doesn't sound strong enough. Feel free to call your GP for something that really works. Being sick and sleeping at the same time is just not possible. Ask your partner to help with household chores too; you really need some rest right now. The health center can also give good tips on sleeping when you have a cold. Get well soon.
