I have been having trouble sleeping for the past few months. I know it's stress related (not only wedding), and that I have to learn to relax but as I'm sure we all know it's easier said than done. I was just wondering if anyone had any tips for me to help me sleep. Thanks ladies!

I feel your pain, I'm the same way. I've heard that lavender scent is good for sleep, they have baby bath oils for that reason.
When I have trouble sleeping, either insomnia or a headache, I close my eyes and in the blackness try to look BEYOND the darkness...if that makes any sense? This is better for headaches cuz you take the focus off of the pain, but also works for sleep. Good luck!

I have always suffered from Insomnia, but old school trick warm milk or I like Sleepy Time tea from celestial seasonings.

Do not add anything, heat about 45 sec, not too hot!
chocolate or anything sweet will keep you up due to the caffeine and or sugar.
I hope this helps!
FH has barely slept in months. He has always been a light sleeper but its gotten to the point were we are sending him to the doctor. But its probably stress related. Still if it persists then maybe you should see a doctor.

Thanks so much! You really are like my little helper these last few days...I'm Grace by the way.
Still up? I use tilenol PM. I take two. I try not to do it often, but I dont really know anyone who isnt knocked out within twenty minutes. it might help to at least reset ur sleep schedule so you go to bed earlier. HTH
I was going through a very stressful time where I couldnt sleep either. I found this stuff called LunaSom PM which is a supplement of melatonin, valerian, and chamomile. (Not to be confused with Unisom) I like it because I can take it at anytime and not get that 'trouble waking up like i have a sleeping pill hangover the next day' feeling. I found it at Harmons but have not been able to find it anywhere else.
ugh hun i feel you! i havent slept well in days and i dont know what to do myself! even when i lay in bed and try to go to sleep i just toss and turn for hours till i finaly fall asleep! fh even has been getting annoyed with me, lol! because i cant sleep so ill just hang downstairs on the couch and watch tv alone or go on the computer until the wee hours while hes up in his room sleeping away and he doesnt like that cause he just wants me to go to sleep and lay down with him but all i do is toss and turn and move around and i dont want to wake him up when hes sleeping soo peacful, hehe! :) i guess i cant sleep cause i have soo much stress going on, with the wedding planning and all the things i have to do that i lay in bed and think about all of this! so i know exactly what you are going thru.. ive taken nyquil to make myself go to sleep, lol!
