i never had this with my first pregnancy but my first pregnancy i was also 16 and in high school and would die as soon as i got from school untill dinner then sleep all night and be fine at school the next day...

i have tried unisom sleep aids and they only keep me awake
my two year old lives with his dad 3 weeks outta the month and i take my vitamin wit dinner otherwise i get sick i have tried warm milk and warm baths. i was told unisom by my obgyn i even tried eating more filling foods like turkey and other comfort foods but they didnt help at all. i lay in bed in the complete dark staring at the ceiling i have an alarm that oes off at 530 andd 8 for the dog and to try to get up and the second i stand up and move to the couch i pass out again. i hve tried pillow toppers and everything t make me more comfy but it didnt help...i tried music and forcing myself to stay awake but no matter what i still am up untill the wee hours of the morning and cant get myself moving untill like 2 pm. im starting to think its the whole first trimester tiredness that hasnt wore off yet

Try taking 1 Tylenol PM or 2 Benadryl -

Stop napping during the day, and force yourself out of bed at a reasonable time in the morning, I would think with a two year old you would be up around 7am. That way you'll be more tired in the evening and more likely to sleep through the night. Stop taking sleep aides whilst you're pregnant, no drugs are good for your baby.
Try having a bath right before you crawl into bed and then read before you go to sleep, that used to help me.

Take your prenatal vitamin after supper. I know it sounds weird but it helped me. If I took mine in the am and I would be tired and hungry all day so I started taking it after supper and I slept like a baby. I wouldnt suggest taking any sleep aids unless instructed to by a dr.
