All mums-to-be know sleep will soon be a luxury, so it's important to make the most of it while you can.
Is sleep a thing of the past?
Sleep problems are very common during pregnancy, for all sorts of reasons.
In early and late pregnancy in particular, you may need to get up in the night to wee.
As you get bigger, finding a comfortable position to sleep can be difficult.
Your body's 'thermostat' can seem permanently set to 'over-hot'. You may find it too hot for bedcovers, but then wake up feeling cold.
Backache can keep you awake.
You may have 'restless legs syndrome'. This isn't uncommon and is exactly what it sounds like: jerking or twitching of the legs, particularly when lying down.
Leg cramps, which are a common complaint.
You may feel itchy.
