Ok, so for about a month now every 3 days or so I wake up between 3:00 am and 4:00 am. Wide awake! What is the deal. I can stay up for about an hour or two and then go back to sleep just fine, but if I just lay in bed I just lay there for about 3 hours. What do you guys think is causing this, what should I do to prevent it? I have tried to watch what I eat or drink close to bed time/after dinner; but it doesn't seem to matter. I can stick to all water to drink and no sweets and nothing... no difference... UUUUHHHGGGG! This is so frustrating.
The Sunny Side of Life:
I guess one think that I can say is it will only last a little longer, I'm sure after the baby comes I will be so exhausted I will have no problem sleeping, b/c I'll be up half the night anyway:). By the way, I can't believe the baby egg has almost reached the end of the ticker and soon we will have another birthday timer at the top of our page! Wow. I'm so excited and nervous all at the same time. :) What will he look like? What will the brothers think of this little baby? How will he sleep? How will he eat? What is his personality be like? All things I'm so excited to find out!
Anyways, enough with the rambling.... you have to give me this one, I mean it is 3:45 am. :) I'm going to watch some Food Network Re-runs and then head back to bed. Goodnight, Hope you are all sleeping tight. :)

Hey Audra, I can't believe how close you are! I had that problem with Grayson towards the end and my doctor told me to just take Tylenol PM and it worked great! You might ask your doctor about it and see what he says.
ReplyDeleteI have no help on the sleeping matter! Maybe it is just your body's way of preparing you for what is to come...middle of the night feedings! Of course, all of this is old hat to you...you're a pro!! I hope it gets better. The Tylenol PM is a good idea!
ReplyDeleteyou are crazy!!! but i think that you should have a project planned for in the middle of the night so when you wake up you will have something productive to do without any boys bothering you. since you are awake you may as well be doing something!
ReplyDeleteThat is a great sign that you are getting close!Hope you guys are doing well.
ReplyDeleteGod is just preparing you for the 3:00a.m. feeding....
ReplyDeletei remember the same thing happening to me w/ all three kids. it's kind of a blessing to be eased into the "less sleep" time. you could use this time as a special time to pray for the baby. of course new posts are nice too. :) oh, audra, it's getting so close!!! i'm so excited for you!
