Soo…I am a zombie. I laid down to go to bed last night and knew it was going to be fruitless. It’s amazing how I can tell. So I read Stepford Wives to see if I could make myself tired, or at least be entertained. (It’s a short book, doesn’t take long to get through.) After that I was still wide awake with an achy back. John brought me the ice pack and that helped for a bit, but I soon noticed that every time I moved or shifted I was waking him up a little. I think he’s convinced that the baby will pop out any minute. So I went out into the living room and watched TV for a couple of hours and then laid back down. 6am seems to be the magic hour where I can sleep for a bit, that was a relief. But I’m starting to HATE going to bed! Sleeping during the day seems to work out ok, I can get comfy and sleep soundly, but when it gets dark and quiet and TIME to sleep, my body rebels. I have to go to the bathroom, I have brackston hicks, the baby kicks and keeps me awake, I can’t lay comfortably for my back. Last night my belly was just sooo harrrrddd. So pregnant ladies- what do I do? I hear this is normal, but what do you DO so that you don’t go crazy watching infomercials at 3am? I considered going out for a walk, but figured if I was eaten by a horse or ran into a crazy stalker or even just fell over John and my Mom would be very mad. So in the house I stayed. Suggestions welcome.
