pregnancy isn't an easy thing to go through and if the baby is kicking or you have morning sickness you my have trouble sleeping. The baby could be active and sleep can b difficult.

Many pregnant women say it's hard to sleep because they can't get comfortable, need to run to the bathroom constantly, have leg cramps, and are excited – and anxious – about their baby's arrival.

I have been pregnant three times. There are several reasons you could not be sleeping. The baby could be in a bad position and they are kicking your rips, during late pregnancy it could be back issues, could be gas getting pushed places it didn't before, the million times you have to go pee, your hungry, too much energy, anxiety, depression, and many other factors, just to name a few. If these still do not seem right it could also be morning sickness, if not talk with your doctor.

There could be many reasons...It gets increasingly difficult to get comfortable as the baby grows...then on top of that, it could be heartburn, among a number of other things. When in doubt, see your doctor :)

Probably not in a comfty position or the baby is keeping you up at night by kicking. Try drinking tea or lemon water and taking a nice warm shower

Having never been pregnant myself, I cannot speak from experience. Yet, I can say that I think it might have something to do with the thoughts that constantly run through your mind. It's really hard to sleep when you're constantly flooded with different thoughts. These thoughts often are due to the hormones in your body and the baby.

Mostly because if hormones but also your body won't be use to the added mass heat and physic compromise to the digestive and respiratory systems, you could have extra trouble if you've changed your diet or routine, try getting in to the swing of one and eat plenty of bananas; they give energy to the mitochondria for energy and they product melatonin for sleeping well.

As your baby grows, so do you. Trouble sleeping can be because you can't find a comfortable position for your baby belly, hormones, having to use the rest room all the time, heart burn, leg cramps or anxiety about birth.
