Guess this will be my new sleeping schedule for the next 3 months

Welp! Looks like this is where i'll be getting up throughout the night a lot and waking up at the crack of dawn! I must say, i can't complain THAT much, getting up early makes the day SO much longer!!

 

any of you ladies having this issue yet? I've "slept like a baby" (which we know that saying is not literal) this whole pregnancy! So this is quite the transition for me! any tips? 

 

So weird to think my little boy will be here within 13 weeks :) I'm too excited! 

Hope everyone is having a happy and healthy pregnancy :)

    I haven't this time yet but with my last pregnancy I was up around 430500 every morning.

     Again, i'm not complaining! I'm surprised it doesn't really bother me much! The one thing i don't like is waking up in the middle of the night and just LAYING there doing nothing. It gets semi-boring! and takes FOREVER to fall back asleep! 

    Yeah i'm usually up around 6:30 now! and i've noticed i've been going to bed much later than normal, so i'm only getting roughly 5 hours of sleep all together! but i try to nap atleast 1 hour during the day so i have energy!

    I used to joke it was my body preparing me for the newborn. I do wake often in the middle of the night and have trouble getting back to sleep. I'm ready for a nap by 9am lol.

     

    The plus is when the child is here and i'm waking up in the middle of the night atleast it's for a REASON! Plus, i'll have someone to bond with :) haha!

    I agree 100% If i'm not working i do everything in my power to get back to bed by 10!

    I have a reason to get up in the middle of the night... I have to pee. I've bonded a lot with my toilet.

    I was actually waking up so early in first tri. I think because I was so nervous that I would wake up bleeding that I just couldn't sleep soundly. Now I'm waking up to pee a lot but am able to fall right back to sleep afterwards.

    my sister had her girl almost a year ago everyone told her that getting up srveral times to pee prepares you for getting up to feed baby. she told me it's all a lie. it's easier to go back to sleep if it's just a bathroom trip. I already have insomnia even before I got pregnant. it's hereditary. and I auffer from allergies. the omly thong I can do is take benadryl before bed. it works for a few hours but I still wake up every hour. not to pee; just to wake up. I hate it only because I can't nap and catch up during the day. small price to pay though.
