Anyone want to join the Insomnia club with me? Have been trying to sleep for the past 2 hours, eventually gave up and starting bumping. Nervous for my ultrasound tomorrow and my bp check, hopefully all goes well. How is everyone else?
I am awake too. I had a bad migraine today and slept the majority of the day. The migraine is gone but now I am wide awake. I'll be thinking about you tomorrow @kelsbeno ! I have a bp check and NST tomorrow too.
@lappyfoinker I am with you, I lay here and wonder about things like what she is going to look like! @mislogis that does not sound fun! So far any heartburn I've had goes away with a tums. @jmathi0149 you have high bp too right? I hope to find out if the dr wants to induce early or not for mine, I feel like I'm just playing the waiting game right now. Good luck tomorrow!
Yes, I have had high bp since week 31. Baby boy is staying strong though. I am being induced at 37 weeks. I also struggle with terrible heartburn. I swear even water gets me these days!
Yay, I'm not alone! Just wide awake like every other night. My back is killing me, I tried a heating pad & tylenol for a while but it didn't do much. Decided to take a bath...because everyone takes baths at 3am
Have you ladies tried Prilosec for the heartburn? Tums and Zantac weren't doing it for me so my doctor told me to try Prilosec. It's been a life saver!
Still awake. I've got horrible bastion Hicks tonight. Actually, I can't tell if they're basic contractions or if they're still BH. All I know is they. Are. Miserable.
I'm sorry! You are farther along than I am but I know what you mean. I want a healthy baby and for him to stay in as long as he needs but being on bed rest sucks. I'm going crazy. Also, after the pre term labor scare and having the positive FFN and them telling me it could be 2 weeks it messed with my head! I'm glad we are in the safe zone now but hate the waiting game, ugh
You never know though...you still have a couple of days, it could happen

I didn't know you were on bedrest?! Or did I...I don't think I did. How long have you been on bed rest for? How far along are you now? I bump mobile so I can't see all that stuff.
Since my last visit to L&D (July 4th). I had bleeding for the 2nd time, was @ 1cm and 50% & was showing signs of pre term labor and had the positive FFN. I was 33 weeks then and I had to stop working since my job requires me to be on my feet all day. Was planning on working up until the end of July/first week of August...so that sucked. I was told I can do small things around the house but to be on my feet no longer than 30 minutes. Boo So basically, I'm slowly going crazy! I went into panic mode after they told me it could be 2 weeks and got everything done so there is nothing left to do. And as you know, it's not easy to "relax" when you feel like crap all day!
I feel bad complaining because I know others have it so much worse but. ..it still sucks! Just trying to stay positive, not much longer, we can do it
I had a bit of insomnia in my second tri where I would wake up at 2 am wide awake. I watched a lot of house hunters! This tri I have been super tired and sleeping better. But hunger woke me up and its hard to get back to sleep after grabbing a snack!
I finally moved to the couch tonight, was jealous watching my dog and DH sleep. Update from dr today: bp didn't go up this week, but I have elevated uric acid levels which I guess they look at as a marker, and I am more likely to develop pre-e. No protein though, so I'm clear for another week! Got my growth ultrasound and baby looks great, 6.5 lbs. Going to be AW and attach a pic of her face, best pic she could get, her hands are in front of her face
@lappyfoinker haha I know! I asked DH today where in the world those lips came from. I was not expecting the 3d, but I'm really happy the tech did it for us.
I'll join the club- Blame it on the nap. Rather, I'm more in the sleep during the day and bump in the night club. Good practice for those late night feedings I suppose. Helllooo restless mommas.
This is gonna be a long day if I can't go back to sleep. I want to make a bowl of cereal, I'm just too lazy to get up off the couch. Also, my cat is laying on me purring and its so stinking cute.
Re: Insomnia club
Tomorrow is going to suck!
Have you ladies tried Prilosec for the heartburn? Tums and Zantac weren't doing it for me so my doctor told me to try Prilosec. It's been a life saver!
@lappyfoinker my next appointment isn't until Thursday either...it feels so far away!
