Q: What the Hell Is Wrong With Me???

Okay I swear i'm loosing my mind! I mean growing up ive never had a true problem with sleeping I was like one of the first to fall asleep at sleep overs. Would go to bed when my parents told me... Could sleep till the alarm clock! Everything!

Now its like I never sleep! Everrrrr I mean its 2:55 am and I am flippin wide awake! Last night (well this morning) I didnt go to sleep till almost 8 am! And even then I only slept for like 2 1/2 hours?

Is it because of the pregnancy? Will it change? Ahhhh!

Hey jess, I couldnt sleep either, and everything I did to try and make me sleepy, just woke me up instead.
Garry was startnig to get pissed at me, coz id be waking him up every half hour coz I was bored lol.

I cant tell you that it will pass though. Because I had jay, and now im up all night anyways.

Just think of it as your bodys way of getting u used to having no sleep.

Lol, garry was liek that at one point. Till I told him that if I go into labour at night, for every contraction I have that he's asleep, I will wax a section of pubic hair away from him.
Seemed to work. Maybe u should try it lol.

How far along are you both?
I know that around 20-25 weeks your body starts to prepare for the lack of sleep you will get when baby comes hence not being able to sleep now so it won't bother you as much when baby is here.

I noticed at the begining of me pregnancy, like a little before I even found out, I had a lot of trouble staying asleep at night....I would wake up at like 2 and 4 in the morning.....I think it was because I would get so tired during the day and take naps, and then at night I would fall asleep normally, but wake up way too early.....Thank god that changed though!! I sleep like a button now!!
