Anyone else up?

I'm trying to labor at home right now. At least long enough to get DD1 on the bus in a few hours. Anyone with me?

Re: Anyone else up?

  • No labor for me, but I'm definitely still up :-q
  • Loading the player...
  • *lurking from D15. Not in labor but insomnia here. Good luck!
  • I woke up with some contractions not too long ago. I'm snuggled up with my dog on the couch. Thank the Lord for furry critters.

    You got this!
  • Team no sleep here, again.
    Not laboring, but you ladies that are, good luck! 
  • Lurking from D15 too. Up with vomit nausea and massive heartburn. So in a lesser way I'm suffering along with ya lol! Good luck mama many blessings!

  • No labor. But I'm at work...
    Good luck!
  • No labor here ,but my 4yo just peed the bed so I'm up. That's always fun to clean at 3am.
    Good luck!
  • Up contracting occasionally,but not active labor :(( :-q
  • Wide wake all night long...mild contractions starting to space themselves out though. Good luck!
  • I'm awake. Had some cramping but that's gone away. Scumbag brain now thinks it's time to get up and have breakfast. Ugh.
  • Been up for a couple hours with bad cramping which are thankfully beginning to subside.
  • Up as well with cramping and contractions. Sitting up in bed with the heating pad. Bah.
  • Was up all night convinced I was in labor. I had contractions but they were irregular. The baby moved to my left side so that also may have been causing the cramping. And like always, she kicked all night long b-(
  • I was also up most of last night. This baby does not stop moving!

  • Was up all night last night, too.  No contractions, just achy hips and horrible reflux keeping me from getting comfy at all.
  • Sleep? What is sleep?

    Nearly every single night I wake up anywhere between 1am-3am & I can't fall back asleep. I am a zombie. Maybe it's my body's way of preparing me for what's to come? Either way, it's cruel & unusual because this is the time I should be "resting". HA! Whatever that means...

  • Same here! Did not sleep hardly at all last night. This insomnia is torture. Seriously a cruel joke that this is the time we should be resting. My brain just will not shut off. :(
  • Insomnia is the frickin worst. That is all.
  • As a FTM, it's so hard to know exactly what I am experiencing. I, too, was up last night with what I'm pretty sure were contractions (not just BH). Crampy/twisting pains that lasted prob 30-50 seconds and came and went (not regular intervals). I realize you can have contractions over a period of weeks, but it's also hard to know if/when things could escalate and go into full on labor. I just know that, like you ladies, I'd love to just be able to sleep and be comfortable!
  • 2am. Every. Single. Night. Then baby decides it's party time. I am dragging these days!!

  • About midnight and cannot get comfortable. I'm so over this. Ugh.

  • 2 day old baby with trapped wind - I'm so up its not even funny.
  • Up again, I really should start taking the Procardia in the morning. :( 
    @TacoSarah I hope Elliot gets some relief soon!

    Gripe water saved us with my daughter. That and lots of bicycling her legs and pumping them in and out.
  • Oh and I was once again up half the night.
    Husband woke me up at midnight when he was taking out the garbage (he gets home from work then) and I never fell back to sleep before my alarm went off at 2. Then he got mad at me when I said I was up since midnight and said he wouldn't have woken me up if I had taken the garbage out myself. Sigh. Nothing like a fight at 2am before going to work. At least it's Friday...
  • 5am so of course I'm awake!
  • Awake here... Not because of labor. Currently eating a granola bar and string cheese while watching an infomercial for Golden Age Country music hits. Exactly what I want to be doing at 2am.....
  • Ahh heartburn really sucks
  • Aaand I'm awake. Woke up to use the restroom and dealt with my son's feet in my ribs and can't fall back asleep.
  • I keep waking up thinking I'll be in labor but I just have to pee...again. and this pelvic pain is something else too!
  • Same here !!!! Having to pee every hour is horrible
  • Hey, the smoke alarm decided it needed a new battery AT 2 IN THE MORNING.  That was fun trying to sleep through for 5 hours before giving up and changing the damn thing.  Oy.
  • Last night was the worst night of sleep I've ever had. Up from 230-630 with contractions every 5-7 minutes apart. Finally was able to fall asleep until 730 but kept getting woke up because of the contractions. Thinking today may be the day. (Hoping anyways I can't handle another night of that!)

    I might just stab the next person who says something along the lines of "you're tired now? Just wait till you have that baby." Shut. Up. Just because the kid isn't hear means I'm not allowed to be tired/have trouble sleeping? Grr.

    This. It gets really old. I need helpful, positive responses...otherwise, STFU. And I keep saying, well, at least for the first 12 weeks of baby being here, I won't also be having to drag my hiney to work every day ON TOP of being exhausted. People are the worst.
  • I'm awake...it's only 3am and I have to be up at 6...
  • Wide awake since 4am. Thankfully I'm done working so I don't have to worry about that! But annoying nonetheless. Hoping a bubble bath will lull me back to sleep.
  • Last few days have been killer. Waking up every hour or so because I'm no longer comfortable in certain positions, and then also bathroom trips. It's 6:15 am and I've been up since 5 just tossing and turning then I made the mistake of grabbing my phone....
  • 6 days to my due date and I'm miserable. I'm now waking up every night bc of the extreme heartburn and reflux making me sick..... When will this be over? I Judy want to feel like myself again
  • The past few nights I've been up up up. Tonight got in a fight though so now I feel extra awful. Why can't you just hug or cuddle a 38 week crying pregnant woman?? Why snap at her that she's being crazy and emotional? Damn it. The one person I care to be around and he's got to be an ass. So I go for a drive and get mcdonalds. Only to feel food guilt and fat and now I can't eat it. BOO. Can't tell if I'm ready to sleep. PROBABLY NOT.
