Can’t sleep?

wfmwheader_162.jpgI used to be an expert sleeper. No problems whatsoever. When my head hit the pillow I was a gonner. Then I had kids. That changed everything. I had one particular kid who decided not to be a dream baby and continued to need his mother 3-4 times a night until he was over a year. (yawn) It’s a good recipe for Insomnia.

One thing that I do try to help me get to sleep I’ve been unconsciously doing since I was a child. My mother, if she heard me tossing and turning would alway say “Turn your pillow over”. Yea I know it’s simple but when you’ve been lying on the pillow for a while, it gets all hot and bothered just like you do, turning over your pillow gives you a nice cool side to lie on.

I’m not sure if this is the complete answer but I sure do like a nice fresh feeling pillow and so although this may not work for you it certainly works for me.

    How do you get to sleep, though, with an overactive fetus??!!

    Hey, love your blog template…probably becuase I have the same one :)

    My daughter did the same thing till she was 13 months and even though she is almost two, I can’t sleep most of the time! I’ll try the pillow thing, i’ll try anything!

    Thanks! :)

    I love this tip! My mom used to say the same thing but I guess I’ve forgotten over the years. :)

    Hey thanks for visiting me - I loved the Scripture memory idea too - we are having fun with it - I am constantly thinking up a cartoon in my head now whenever I come across a new Scripture I want us to learn! ( :
    I do the pillow thing too - but more because I am a slobberer!! ) : LOL

    Warmly,
    Mandi

    Thanks ladies I guess I knew it wasn’t brain surgery but it’s just one of those things that
    you wonder if everyone else in the world does or not ;-)

    Tnn2833 - I reckon you just keep telling yourself that the sleep pattern is going
    get worse before it gets better. Sorry hope I haven’t ruined your day.

    jpslauen - I guess that makes us twins.

    Mandi - I’m a slobberer too - something else we have in common - I just wasn’t going to
    mention that :oops:
