i been having labor symptoms the past few days... so at night when i go to bed i keep thinking something is going to happen .like my water is gonna break or something....i get absolutely no sleep...what can i do to calm my nerves so i can get a descents night sleep?

Answer 1

Is it your first baby? Just rest your mind knowing that most first labors will last a Little while, you will definitely not sleep through labor, plus your water could break whether your awake or asleep, so just tell yourself that you might as well be enjoying the sleep now, because in a short time sleep will be somewhat of a rarity...It is normal to be  nervous, you could drink some chamomile tea, benadryl is safe to take when you are pregnant, I had to take it once to help me sleep. good luck :)

Answer 2

try drinking rasberry leaf tea, it helps labor and soothes your muscles so you feel tired
