Get an OBGYN textbook and read it. It WILL turn your mind off!
Okay - practical things ...
warm milk or hot chocolate
lavender smell / lavender essential oils
Drugs-wise
a touch of alcohol (bad habit) or a valium
or even a phenergan
Oooh - yeah! Read the Bible! Almost as good as the textbook idea!
Start at the book of Numbers!

The easy way is to go do some routine activity that you don't like to do. FOr some that is cleaning, or balancing the checkbook or filing your papers and mail.
A more correct way is to practice formal relaxation:
*lie down on your back in a comfortable spot
*practice taking slow deep breaths and holding them for two or three seconds each
*concentrate on your body, starting with your feet, then slowly moving up your legs and the rest of your body
*as you concentrate on each part, clench it tight for five to ten seconds then relax it

Do a logic problem or crossword. It helps you focus on something other then the problems you dealt with during the day, and makes you fall asleep.

Try not to think of anything at all and just clear your head. You'll be asleep in no time!
