  T: What traits of yours or your DH/SO do you hope get passed on to your children?

  I hope that our kids have DH's dimples and curly hair.  I hope that our kids get my blue eyes.  I hope that the kids get both of our passion for the things they really love!

  W: What traits of yours or your DH/SO would you not want to pass on to your children?

  Sometimes I procrastinate (like when I am bumping and should be working/dishes/laundry, etc.) and I hope they don't get that.  As far as DH goes, he has a pretty good temper and I hope that they are a little more mellow than he is sometimes.  I, on the other hand, never get angry  haha!

  Th: How are you sleeping these days?

  Lately, not very well and it sucks!  Everytime I lay down this kid starts a dance party in my uterus!  But, I guess I should shut up and be grateful that I can feel the baby!

  M: Weekend was ok.  Baby is apparently ok.  I haven't actually been here in July, but I'm assuming we have typical Jersey Shore weather.  I'm hoping to get a nice breeze from the ocean.

  T: I hope our kids get DH's eyes and my ears.

  W: I hope our kids don't get my poofy hair.

  Th: Once I actually fall asleep, I'm fine.  Can't really complain.

  Th: I sleep pretty normal (amount of sleep wise) but this baby must be a night owl because she makes it hard for me to sleep in the night and much too easy to sleep during the day.?

  I've been restless most nights- last night was pretty bad. We're training DD to sleep through the night so she kept fussing when I wouldn't come to get her. Of course, I heard every little peep. I also have my big u/s today so I'm sure that didn't help my sleep either. Can hardly wait for 3pm!!!!

  I've actually been sleeping way better than in the first tri.  Though, I'm a tummy sleeper, so I find it a little harder to fall asleep, but once I am asleep I stay that way. 

  Today, however, is a surprise day off and I could have slept in...but I was wide awake at 6:00am!

  I've actually been sleeping pretty well, nothing's changed yet. I think it was during week 14 or 15 that I kept waking up at odd hours to use the bathroom, but that stopped after about a week and all's been fine since then (but I'm keeping my fingers crossed!).

  Actually not bad at all! I can't stay awake past 8:30 or 9 and I'm a side sleeper anyway. The only thing is that I wake up at least twice during the night to go to the bathroom but I definitely don't have anything to complain about!

  I don't think sleep is  my friend anymore. =(  I usually wake up around 330 am every day.  I don't get up in hopes that I am going to fall back asleep.  grrr.  Usually on the weekends I sleep better, but I think that is because I'm so exhausted come Friday night!

  I'm not sleeping very well these days. Last night I slept pretty good, but the rest of the week has been bad. I have insomnia before getting pregnant, so I know that's not helping! Hopefully I'll have a good sleep week soon!

  Not well at all. I wake up at least once to go to the bathroom and sometimes can't go back to sleep. Also, DH gets up very early to go to work and then I really can't go back to sleep. I'm having leg cramps/legs falling asleep, too. I just want to sleep!!!

  Once I fall asleep I'm ok but its the getting comfortable enough to fall alseep that is difficult.  I have been more comfortable on one side rather than the other so now I am sore from sleeping in the same position.

  I'm sleeping badly, but mostly because our DD comes and gets in our bed at night!  Other than that it's going ok, I just wish I could lay on my stomach.

  I've had insomnia for a long time, add that to FI getting home yesterday and his snoring... So, I slept on the couch, got about 3 hours of sleep, and now I am sick to my stomach and have a headache... ugh! I guess it's back to earplugs for now.

  T: I hope one of our babies ends up with DH's blue eyes, but it's not likely.

  W: I hope none of them get his stick-straight hair!  DD didn't get my curls, which means DS will probably have beautiful curly hair.

  Th: With a 7.5 month old, I can say I've slept better.  She was waking up at 5-5:30 every morning raring to go for a week or so.  She slept from 7:15 p.m.-6 a.m. last night and I'm hoping she does it again tonight!

  Sleeping is a challenge.   I was a HUGE stomach sleeper.   So sleeping on my sides is just killing me.

  I have trouble finding a way to sleep and trouble falling asleep. I'm getting used to the routine though. Sometimes I have to lay on my right side because of my acid reflux, but I try to stay on my left.

  Pretty good for the most part.  We have the 1:00am and 6:00am bathroom trips, but other than that I really cannot complain.  I fall right back to sleep usually.  I try not to nap when I get home from work, that way when I go to bed I am ready for sleep.  It is working out pretty good!

  Oddly enough...I only wake up once to go pee now. But I still wake up tired in the a.m. I think its because I can't sleep on my back and stomach.

  I can crash out right away, but then I get up about 4am every morning to use the bathroom and can't go back to sleep...my mind starts going a million miles a minute about baby stuff, work, school, etc! Usually I end up falling asleep again right before my alarm goes off, go figure!!!

  Sleeping is difficult!  I am usually a stomach sleeper so can't get comfortable at all.  I have a body pillow which helps some, but then I feel like I don't have enough room in the bed with it.
