A couple of cookies or a slice of toast, and I'm ready to sleep like a baby within the hour.<BR/><BR/>Milk is good too, it contains something that stimulates the sleep hormones in the brain (can't remember what they're called).<BR/><BR/>In case of feeling hot, I run cold water over my feet. Instant coolness.<BR/><BR/>However, there are times when nothing works, and then half a sleeping pill will knock me out for at least 10 hours.dabrahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00689887581549281393noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6998770.post-80333157703749139932008-08-02T15:10:00.000-04:002008-08-02T15:10:00.000-04:00I have to admit that I take sleeping pills.

I kicked the pills this past spring for two months and my quality of life went way down. These choices we have to take... Surely, for a couple nights I wouldn't worry a bit. You deserve the sleep!Woman in a Windowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14747858840088922077noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6998770.post-28792981320190088322008-08-02T13:39:00.000-04:002008-08-02T13:39:00.000-04:00Oh Anvilcloud!

I've been drinking tons of soy milk to help with the night heats (I'm going through the change)...and I'm happy to report that it works for me. I too take a little pill on nights when i can't sleep. Husband and I are on vacation (a two month off)...Richard is a teacher and works four months at a time then receives two months off...getting up at 5:00 am every morning is extremely hard for him. Right now he is in sleep heaven! :)<BR/><BR/>(((Hugs to you)))Kathy Trejohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08320525571609595412noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6998770.post-90098857744982774702008-08-02T12:01:00.000-04:002008-08-02T12:01:00.000-04:00You will feel the benifit from a great nights slee...You will feel the benifit from a great nights sleep. I usually sleep well, but i wish that the little one would stop getting up at 5:30 every morning 7 days a week!Amandahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13652316916683235671noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6998770.post-77385770973247800732008-08-02T11:22:00.000-04:002008-08-02T11:22:00.000-04:00I too have been plaqued with many sleepless nights...I too have been plaqued with many sleepless nights, especially since "the change". I too take the little pill and find it to be most effective. I too worried about the necessity of artificial means, but my Doc assured me that getting the proper sleep is the real goal here.. so I no longer worry much about it. Having a good nights sleep can make all the difference in my day.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
