Or lack there of.
I swear I should get a job in a bakery for the next month or 2 to combat the blasted boredom of not being able to sleep!! Went to bed tonight at 10pm, woke up fresh as a damned daisy at 4am (i usually sleep from 10-11ish til 7am) got woken up this morning by a nice kick in the bladder - thanks baby. So it looks like I'm awake.. wonder if theres anything decent on TV? |

i am right there with you. I went to bed at 12 & back up at 430am. Now I'm feeling shattered but we're going out today & I've been looking forward to it so off to look for matchsticks to keep my eyes open lol.
When are you due, Miss angel? I'm due early march. I'm sure I got woken by bubs rolling around as I went to sleep with bubs on left side now have a bot on the right grr. |

I remember waking up heaps during my pregnany (if it wasn't Ella kicking, it was the constant need to go to the bathroom)........helps prepare you for when the baby arrives and you have to get up for night feeds. I can't remember the last time I slept through the whole night. ------------- Mum to Ella (5) and Tom (2) |

Oh I remember those days. I would always try and find something to watch on TV (usually ended up being E channel) and falling asleep in front of the telly. ------------- I was a puree feeder, forward facing, cot sleeping, pram pushing kind of Mum... and my kids survived! |

Yep, been there too! I used to be awake half the night - just couldn't seem to get comfortable - it was awful. And as much as everyone tells you that it will prepare you for those sleepless nights after baby is here - it doesn't!! Nothing can prepare you for that! At least you are feeling refreshed when you wake in the morning so at least thats a good thing. Maybe get some baking done??!! ------------- http://www.myfitnesspal.com/weight-loss-ticker">

I would have a milk or milo, do some journalling, and snuggle back in and try to sleep. Hard tho. How far along are ya? -------------  |

23 weeks.
trying to go back to sleep wasnt an option, the boyfriend and the dogs had already taken over the bed completely and i couldnt be bothered disturbing them all :P I cant fall asleep with anyone else in the bed anyway, has to be me in there first. Bit annoying, but that's the way it's always been :P |

I barely slept through my whole pregnancy-I hired out cheap DVDs-I think most rental places do 5 weekly hires for $10 or so, and that's how I survived! Had to turn them up loud enough to cover the sound of DP's snoring tho

I seem to wake up at around 5am at the moment too! Don't mind if Gina wakes up too (well not too much ) as it gives me an excuse to get up and do something ------------- http://lilypie.com">  http://lilypie.com">
