So it is time for a little complaining. I have been so blessed with this little miracle and this pregnancy has been pretty darn amazing. No morning sickness, no acne, I have been able to exercise starting at 13 weeks and am still going strong, my skin and hair has felt amazing. I have not been craving crazy unhealthy food and have not had that crazy huge truck driver appetite that others talk about, so my weight gain has been reasonable and right where I want it to be. But man I do not sleep good at night, which totally sucks because if baby is not a good sleeper it is going to get even worse. I was totally preparing myself for no sleep around Dec 14th, but I never thought my pregnancy would be this way. In the past 28 weeks and 2 days I have maybe had 3 good nights of sleep. The first trimester was getting up every 3 hours to pee and being worried all the time about losing this baby. Then second trimester and third trimester has just been not being able to get comfortable and fall into a deep sleep. I am use to not being an amazing sleeper but night after night after night of not getting any kind of deep sleep is so warring on my body, mind and energy. I guess the body is just preparing for baby to come and no sleep. If anybody has any tips PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE fill me in. The best sleeps I get are if I go for a long hard walk, have a bath and then head straight to bed, but it is hard to get that in every night with having a busy life. So I have about 11 weeks and 5 days to try and get some good night sleeps in. Wish me Luck!!!
You can't use my method I just take good drugs, but no drugs for the prego lady. I know there are pregnancy body pillows, do you have one of those?
