i've been up since 4am. ?went to bed at midnight. ?wtf? ?i'm not tired any longer. ?i don't nap during the day so it's not like i'm so well rested that i wouldn't be sleeping. ?i'm pretty active all day as well. ?so what gives?

anyway, glad i'm not working any more because i'd be a royal biitch if i were.?

    i have the same problem!!! happy waking at 4 a.m.! and there is nothing on tv to watch!

    makes for a long night -- i think it is our body preparing us for when the baby arrives!

    I can't imagine sleeping any less then I do now...  I couldn't live without my DVR, I make sure to record plenty of crap because I seem to be wide awake at 2 every morning.  I'm still working, but I'm definitely not as plesant as I once was.

    Yeah, I am pretty content working from home until the little one comes.  I would be a bear if I had to commute into the office and sit there all day!

    2 am on the dot every morning like clockwork.  I usually toss and turn, trying to go back to sleep for about an hour, but I tend to be up for good.  I go to the family room to watch TV so my husband can sleep and am wide awake until 5:30 when I start to feel like I could doze back off.  If it's a weekend I'll lie back down, but during the week I jump in the shower and get ready for work.  I'm planning to work up until the baby comes.  This has been going on since mid 2nd tri...kill me.

    That's funny, I now wake up around 3:30 or 4:00 and usually don't go back to sleep.  Unlike you, however, I still have three weeks of work left.  I feel like a zombie.  Tongue Tied Enjoy your time off before baby!  Hopefully you can get some stuff done around the house.  I can't wait to be done so I can start cooking and cleaning like crazy!  Big Smile

    ugh the no sleep thing really stinks.  About the same here.  up between 3 and 4, and usually toss around until the alarm goes off at 6am for DH.  I'm tired all.day.long and it isn't much fun

    and people wonder why i'm short tempered lately.  ha

    I woke up at about 3am too after going to bed around 11pm. I felt like I could go out and run errands.  Probably fell back to sleep around 6amish and then woke up when DH went to work at 7.  I'm thinking its good training for when the baby arrives.  How are you feeling megs?

    I have a 9:00 doctor's appointment this morning and I'm about to have a major meltdown in her office to see if she will put me on bedrest or leave early.  I cannot deal with other week in the office.  My manager has NO mercy on me and is going to expect me to work late the next 3 days.  I'm so exhausted from not sleeping.

    I have no trouble falling asleep at night (usually by 9:30), but I wake up a lot.  This is the last week of classes, then my students have finals next week.  Then I'm off until January 5th, and I teach three days a week during January.

    I hear ya.  I have been up since 3:30, but I think thats mainly because I am congested.  I am here at work and surprisingly pleasant...for now... :)

    All of the sudden I don't seem to be needing as much sleep either.

    This whole pregnancy I swear to you I would be in bed by 9 pm sleeping, but lately I'm fine with going to bed after 10 (you know, like a normal person). And then in the wee hours of the morning I'm just lying there in bed, wide awake...

    I wake up several times a night too.  Usually around 2 AM and 4 AM.  The 4 AM wake up is killer because most of the time I won't be able to fall asleep again.  This has been going on for weeks.  Meh!  Last night I slept maybe 1 or 2 hours tops.
