Can I just have one day of sleep please! (vent)

I tried to sleep in my office chair last night.  I work from home so my home office is right next to my bedroom.  I got to sleep for about 30mins then woke up because the wheels started moving and I almost fell out! LOL.  

I take tylenol every night before bed to try and calm my hips down from hurting.  I can't take tylenol PM because if I sleep to long my bladder will start to ache.  I have IC.  I am miserable in the morning.  Today I have been crying left and right because I am just so tired and I have a long day ahead of me. My in laws are in town because today is DD's bday.  I can't even be happy cause I am so freakin tired.

    Sorry you're feeling so crappy! I had such sore hips too...I would try and take a bath right before bed and I found this was soothing and at least allowed me to have a good amount of sleep right at the beginning on the night!

    Hang in there.  Hip pain has been really hard for me this pregnancy too.  It wakes me up at night.  I hope you can sneak in a nap or two.

    I'm sorry, it's miserable I know! Then you get the people who tell you dumb things like "oh, just wait, this is preparing you for not sleeping once the babies arrive." A comment which does not help, at all! 

    Hang in there. It's truly amazing how uncomfortable we can be, and still somehow we get through it.  I doubled up on a few of those foam egg crate mattress pads toward the end of my pregnancy and it helped ease the pain a little bit to have a softer bed.

    Ugh I remember being a hot freaking mess at about the same point in my pregnancy.  All I can say is that for me it did get better, I used the Boppy pregnancy pillow and it really helped.  They are expensive, like 50.00 but I used it for quite awhile after delivery too.  I hope you can get some sleep and not fall out of your chair!!! :)

    I feel like my mind could sleep for a month, but my body won't allow even one good night's rest.  I am irritable and just feeling down, and I know it is lack of sleep.  I am waking 3-4 times per night to go to the restroom (I feel an extreme urge to go and then have very little actual result).  I am sooo tired, and I  totally feel for you.

    I used a body pillow thing also but I had carpal tunnel in both hands something terrible toward the end & that was even more uncomfortable for me at night...I really wish we had gottne a reclining glider that I could have slept in for hte last month or 2 of my pregnancy...so that's my advice- get yourself a recliner. GL!
