Fourteen Weeks, two days. Day 102 in the quest to chase our little miracle
I have never been a heavy sleeper, in fact most of my life i have had trouble sleeping.
For the past 4 or 5 years, i have woken every morning before 5am, my body not letting me sleep any later, i would try, i would lay there of a morning and make myself go back to sleep, but most of the time i would get another half hour and wake again.
My nights used to be filled with tossing and turning, waking up every time the cat moved or my husband rolled over, counting sheep, counting back from 1000, counting the things i could do the next day.
This is now in the past.
Last night for the first time that i can remember, i was dead to the world. I feel asleep watching tv at about 8pm, and i dont remember a thing until 4.50am this morning.
This is when my husband told me that he had come home at around 9pm, accidentally slammed the door, had a shower with the adjoining door to our bedroom open, stopped the dog from barking, stopped the dog from pouncing, asked me about my day, told me about his day… Fell asleep, and apparently i got up 4 times for bathroom trips…
I dont remember ANY of it!
Where was i? There were no dreams, no faint memories, nothing, just out like a light…
Do normal people sleep like this? Or is it a pregnancy thing? Or was it because i have been working long hours? I honestly felt like i had been drugged for hours, and when i woke up i was all groggy and hazy…
And to be honest right now i feel like i could curl up on the office floor and sleep for a century!
There is only one thing people like that is good for them; a good night’s sleep. Edgar Watson Howe
