Welcome from me as well, supermum.
Regarding poor sleeping - I usually wake up a couple of times and am often awake by 4 or 5 in the morning. Night sweats are a small problem at the moment - not a major one.
More recently I have been waking up feeling stiff, with backache and hip pains and take a few minutes to get moving.
The thing is - I've started wondering if I need a new, softer mattress. I have just bought a really expensive one in the sales, and it will be delivered soon.
I hope I am not clutching at straws, but I have been finding my mattress too firm recently.
Has anyone else found that a new mattress has helped??
