Answer 3

Why don't you have your husband give you a massage right before bed.  It will relax your muscles and your body and you might not be so tense when you get into bed.  

Answer 4

I remember that time. It can be pretty bad especially if you have restless leg syndrome also. I would say to try relaxation methods such as meditations. I know you have already tried a bath and yoga but really trying to clear you mind should help during this uncomfortable time.
