Did you guys have trouble sleeping 2 weeks before the big day!!!

I couldn't sleep either sunday or monday nights, and didn't sleep well last night either!!! I don't want to be a dark circle eyed bride from lack of sleep!!! And usually, I sleep like a rock, nothing will wake me up, no trucks, no construction, etc.

Absolutely! I even warned the make up girl ahead of time to bring he best concealer the day of! But surprisingly I slept pretty good the night before!

Hang in there.....you'll probably get to the point that you're so tired you'll 'sleep like a rock' again!

I didn't sleep the night of my rehearsal, after RD I was wide awake and slept 3 hrs and on the night before my wedding I slept 2 hrs if even that so on my wedding day i was running on nothing but adrenaline, but trust me, the loss of sleep did NOT affect me at all!!

Not me either - I think by two weeks before there was a lot of running around but by then most things were done - I did have a lot racing in my head but it didn't effect my sleep!

I didn't have trouble sleeping. I did have trouble with crazy mood swings, though. They subsided and the last few days before, I was calm and relaxed.

I had trouble the wednesday before...the next day I was dropping off the stuff to the hall and picking up my dress...

I remember that was the worst night...I'm a log usually otherwise...

I don't think I slept for a couple of months before my wedding. For me it started in March, but got worse as the wedding got closer. Except for the week of. Once I had eveyrthing done, I slept great. Except the night before where I only got 2 hours of sleep.

I had a little truoble sleeping 2 days before the big day. Not because I was nervouse, but because I was so excited about getting married

Starting a few weeks before our wedding, I would wake up at about 4 or 5 am every day - Even on the weekends! I wasn't really nervous - just had too many things running through my mind to sleep. The night before the wedding, though, I slept like a baby.

Meg, that's what's happening to me!!! I wake up at 2:30 and 5am every morning, and then go back to sleep!!! I want my full 7 hrs, no breaks

alina, the same EXACT thing happenned to me. I had to take a Benadryl sporadically to help me sleep. Don't worry, the eve of my wedding, I slept 2 hours only, and you can't even tell, and I was full of energy all day. I was on such a HIGH all day !!!

I slept fine except for the morning of the wedding. That day I woke up super early because I was so excited. I was surprisingly very calm that day. I couldn't stop smiling and I couldn't wait to see my sweetie at the altar and say 'I do.'

SLeep? what was that? ( even MORE valid now w/ my little one!)

We went to a closing 3 weeks b4 the wedding..I had to move out of my apt within 2 days! and rob had his stuff packed too...

I literally think I slept for maybe 2 hours each night in those 4 weeks...

Then , BOOM! we were in our new home ( new to us!) and I flet like I was a rat in a maze! sooo many boxes...on top of that boxes of my favors, centerpieces, welcome baskets for the hotel, presents/poems for ROb and his parents to be made, make up appts to go to, and a new neighborhood to get used to!

alina, consider yourself lucky. My lack of sleep was for the last 2 months.
Somewhere in there I had like a 2 week period where all I could do was sleep, but that was very short-lived

How did you manage to stay up, I don't want to switch from one cup to two!!!

Surprisingly, I had no problems sleeping when the wedding got close. The morning of my wedding I woke up at 11AM!!! I did have anxiety attacks and insomina about a month or 2 before though.
