Its tough sleeping with a big ol’ belly, especially if you’re typically a tummy or back sleeper. One reason may be that you’re waking up more often to use the bathroom, so you have more chances throughout the night to have trouble getting back to sleep. Changing hormones can cause snoring, frequent bathroom trips, restless leg syndrome, heartburn and congestion which can make it difficult to sleep. Hormones are typically the culprit as is true for other pregnancy related issues like pregnancy acne, constipation, and other strange pregnancy ailments. If you’ve had trouble sleeping before getting pregnant you may want to optimize your general sleep first with these sleep tips.

Insomnia is characterized by having trouble falling asleep or staying asleep, waking too early and feeling unrested. If this is a problem for you, check out these natural and safe remedies for pregnancy insomnia. Is pregnancy insomnia hitting you hard? Not being able to get the rest you need, especially while pregnant, can affect your whole day.
