Last night I fell asleep before the kids, thank God for my husband! I was asleep from 7pm until midnight, with a brief waking when my husband put my son in my bed at around 9pm. At midnight I had to have my husband move my son (he wasn't getting his night feeding in my bed) and then I was up until 3am with heartburn.
Right now I am too tired to get the things done I need to do to go to sleep. My son's lunch needs packing and I have to get my daughter's papers together for her tests in the morning. I have to find something to eat so I can take my night time medication before I go to bed.
It is ridiculously late and I am so frustrated with myself. My sleep cycles are a mess. I have to get them back on track. I think if I was getting more sleep, and sleeping through the night my energy level and my memory would both be improved.
I feel like I am pushing through a physical and mental fog all of the time.
I wish I had advice for you, but alas I do not.
ReplyDeleteJust know I am thinking of you.
When are you taking your thyroid hormone and your calcium supplements? I did some reading and found the best time suggested and for me is to take the hormone early in the morning, a few hours before food, then take calcium with noon and evening meals. Praying you'll find the source of insomia and find a way to overcome it. I have struggled with that off and on for years, too. Gets much better when hormone has been taking regularly and am healed from surgery. Praying for you fondly!
ReplyDeleteMindy I take my thyroid meds first thing in the am, and my calcium later in the day. I am thinking I need more sunshine. The days are so short and I keep on napping in the mornings because I am having trouble sleeping at night. It is a terrible cycle. Thank you for the prayers!
ReplyDeleteMikimi thank you.
