A night sleep FINALLY

Last night was probably the first night in 17 weeks that I didn't wake up once to pee!! It was amazing. I think it was only because the last two nights I haven't slept at all really. Thursday night was like a sitcom. Josh and I went to bed at 10ish, ( which is late for us, we are old married people) about two minutes after Josh fell asleep I became STARVING. I tried so hard to ignore my screaming stomach and just fall asleep but it was impossible. I pulled my tired body out of bed and made so food. I peed before going back to bed probably around 12. I laid in bed unable to get comfortable for EVER, ok more like an hour. But can you imagine tossing and turning for an HOUR. It feels like forever. So then after an hour of uncomfort I HAD TO PEE. That is right it had only been an hour and I had to pee again. So I got up and used the bathroom hoping that once I did I could finally fall asleep. At 1:00 am it is very dark in the apartment so I was forced to turn on the bathroom light so i didn't pee on the floor or the closed toilet seat.(wouldn't that of sucked) Of course, the bright light shocked my brain to wide awake. So once I laid back in bed I was having to fall asleep from square one. Finally, after ten or so minutes I fall into a sweet slumber. It was amazing to finally be comfortable and asleep. Sadly this didn't last very long. Around 5:00 I woke up to that so familiar urge, that right I had to pee again. The terrible part here is when I got in bed my lovely husband's alarm started to go off. He decided to hit snooze for a half an hour. During this time I laid wide awake listening to Bob Marley every five minutes(his alarm). When he got his lazy butt out of bed I got to finally fall back to sleep just to wake up two hours late to start my day. It was easily my worst night of pregnancy.
Friday night was bad too, my hip was hurting and getting comfortable was next to impossible. At least, on friday I only woke up to pee once. But, I still only got like 5 hour which was divide up by uncomfortable wake ups.
So two Horrible nights of sleep led to one great night of sleep.

  1. I have been consistently waking up 3-4 times a night to pee right now. I can only imagine what I'm going to be like at 7 months. Kill me! I am glad you got to sleep! Sounds like it was much needed!
