Hi Proud mommy! :-)
I was in the same situation as you. You are up at night because, Finally! - You have some time and don't want to waste it. You need it for yourself, and you want to have some fun time. Escape from the kids, as great as they are, you need it!
If you are married you need to get across to your partner/hubby that you need time once in awhile - Just for you AND just to sleep. There can be no compromise on this. I know. Pick two nights for yourself! Do everything, or do nothing! Then the other 5 - go to bed knowing you are a good mom, with a lot to be proud of, well-rested, and happy. Look forward to your two "me" days/nights.
If you are single, perhaps a relative or a friend can help with this? It's important! Also, you attend church.. Don't be "proud".. ask for help. It's your right - To be a better mom and person, you must take care of yourself, too.
You won't worry or think as much, you'll find yourself happier, and you can go out, too - get exercise, or join a gym/club - away.
Talk to your doctor about this, too.. Otherwise the stress will spill over.. It's not easy to have 3 children under 5!! Demand the help.
C'kins ;-) And pray.. He will answer! God Bless...
ETA: You can also ask about a low dose of Clonazepam or Lorazepam.. to help you drift off on nights like last night...early.
i would go to the doctor and see if he will get you a prescription for a sleeping medicine, i have the same problem and my doctor put me on rozerem.
sorry I dont know
