i hear you.  i really, really hear you.

I distinctly remember when I was in weeks 23-27 not being able to sleep through the night, and then it went away until this past week.

my mind is tired, yet my legs and body and baby are wide awake.  I hope this is not a sign of things to come.....

i feel like i've had insomnia throughout.  i'm tired, just can't sleep.  doesn't help when i get up to pee, then go back to lie down and start getting kicked.  everyone keeps telling me this is just preparation....i don't like that answer one bit.  just sayin'.

pumpkinhead06

that sucks.  I do miss sleeping.  peeing is my issue.  I can usually get a good 2-3 hours before I have to do my first pee, then it's about every hour after that.... add to the fun mix, only one bathroom that is downstairs.  gotta love old houses.

 thankfullly I can take naps during the day...but of course not tomorrow.  I have my parents coming over to prep the baby's room for paint....  nothing like waiting to the last minute and having to have other people do things for you while you stare at them.  fun.  I hate the people who baled on our house sales.  f*ckers.

i hate people who do that too.  and, while balance is getting more challenging, i'd totally kick them in the shins for you if i could.

thanks... after tomorrow though, I may need you to kick my parents in the shins.  it's going to be a long day with them... thankfully I have a doc. appointment that will take a while..... or I will make it take a while. lol.

you'll totally need lunch before or after your appointment too, so that should take time up as well.

and a trip to the food store, and maybe Target or Old Navy... one never knows....

the only problem with that, my mom will do all the laundry, my dad will do more work than is needed and I will feel like a shitbag when I get home b/c I can't do it myself......

MayBride2B2007

no, you will feel like a woman ready to give birth to their grandchild who needs to rest and take care of both of you.

MayBride2B2007

okay, i'm going to try to get one more hour of sleep.  wishful thinking.  good luck at your appointment tomorrow.

pumpkinhead06

thanks... good luck on the sleep!  I should try for some of that too....

I hear you 1/3 I wake up I have to pee, 1/3 the baby is kicking up a storm and 1/3 the time my sciatic hurts or I have a charlie horse in my leg. That on top of working 12 hour shifts and nights really sucks. I use to be a good sleeper, now not at all. Poor DH is a light sleeper, so it is really affecting him too.

Yep! I had a research study last night and she wanted me to tell her what I did from 4am to 4am for the last 2 days.  She chuckled when I said play online at 4am.  I think she thought I was sick.

right there with you. I could have slept in as late as I wanted today.. but I was awake at 6am after going to bed after midnight.. I am hoping i'll fall back asleep on the couch in a little bit.
