3rd Trimester

Sleep.....more like nap at night!

Does anyone else wake up like every 2 hours for no reason???  I mean I have to pee a few times a nite but I seriously wake up every two hours even if I actually don't have to pee!  Plus even though I go to bed not hungry, by 4am I am STRAVING and LO is kicking like crazy!  Then from 4am on, I'm just trying to go back to sleep w/no sleep in site.

  • yep right there with you! Mother nature's cruel joke to prepare us for motherhood just when you are trying to enjoy the last few weeks of sleep. I have been up every two hours or less for the last few nights. And Saturday morning I finally gave up at 4am and just got up. DH came downstairs about 8am and was like "where did you go??"

  • Yeah, I'm getting a lot of reading done between 4 and 5 AM. 
  • Yes, that's par for the course. It sucks,
  • Yes - every night, for no apparent reason.  It sucks!
  • Yup!  And it's at the same exact times every night.  I also can't go back to sleep right away most times, so I'm up for about 45 minutes each time I wake up.  I'm starting to feel like a zombie.
  • One of the (very few) advantages to having a short torso and carrying high is that I still pee just the same amount as I did pre-preg, no joke.  I figured this would bode well for my sleeping habits... but no.  I don't need to wake up to pee, I wake up because I need to sleep on a different hip because the current one will be in excruciating pain.  Repeat every 40 minutes - mind you it takes me at least 30 seconds to turn onto my other side, at this point.

  • I go to bed at 11 p.m. and then am up every hour, on the hour from 2:30 a.m. until 6 a.m.  SUCKS big time!
