Which worked but you're not suppose to take alot of that when you are pregnant (it slows down the babys heart rate). So they discharged me with taking a 175mgs of Benadryl at night before I try to go to sleep and its just NOT enough my body doesn't fall asleep with it. AHHHHHH....I'm seriously running out of options. Its extremely simple if I don't get my sleep I WILL have hallucinations and those aren't fun by no means. Does anyone have any other ideas.  I NEED sleep.

Tmac,
I took a quick peek at your bio and since you are pregnant and might be on some other meds, it's going to be real important for you to keep in touch with the doctor on this one. The relaxation stuff like the warm baths, meditation and music are helpful, and the only thing the doc would let me take when I was pregnant was Benadryl. Make sure you are not taking too much of it cuz it will have the opposite effect on you and make you zombie like. I wish I had some better ideas for you.
