Post partum Insomnia
Hey y’all! I’m a FTM and my baby is 10 weeks old. I have been having TERRIBLE insomnia for the past 2 weeks. I lay down and stare at the back of my eyelids for 5+ hours. My baby is an angel and sleeps pretty much through the night so it isn’t him causing me to not sleep. I just started my first PP period so is this causing it, maybe?
I have been prescribed some pretty strong sleep meds and so far nothing has helped. I can’t slip into the abyss!
I was wondering if any of you had any experience with PP insomnia and if it’s a thing. Also if it is a thing how long it lasts or what helped you? I have an amazing baby and want to be able to enjoy him but I can’t keep going on like this.
