Welcome to the joys of parenthood darling !!!! I always found a few drops of lavender oil on your pillow helped me sleep, if your uncomfortable try laying on your side with a pillow under your knees, it helps the pressure on your pelvis. Dont worry once the baby arrives you will be so tired your be able to sleep anytime anywhere. Its well worth it thou i promise. Good luck, keep us informed. I was wondering if lewy would put a topic for pics of our newest members. Under other reptiles will be good lol.

Hi Roz, you really are taking the breeding side seriously, have you got your incubator ready for your new arrival?lol.
My wife used to swear by the lavender oil like Rie as suggested and even used to add a few drops into a bath which helped her to relax whilst she was pregnant with our twins.

I have Brandy - but I guess that's no good with a baby on the way.
Try dry toast - complex carbohydrates... should send you straight off.

Was chatting with my mate aswell and apparantly, kinda strange but, a lettuce sandwich helps as there is a natural ingreedient in lettuce that aids relaxation and sleep, might be worth a try :)

Don't worry, I've not slept for the last few nights, maybe it's the heat- it makes you restless sometimes. (Although I have had a few job interviews this week so that can affect your sleepy time too)

I have heard that a lettuce sandwich helps you fall asleep. One of the main ingredients in NYTOL is wild lettuce so there may be some truth in it!
