Twenty-Eight Weeks, Three Days. Day 201 in the quest to meet our little miracle George, 81 days to go…
I have realised over the past week why it is i am so tired, and maybe the reason behind the baby brain…
A pregnant womans bedtime routine in ten simple steps.
- Hop into bed, no you cant lay on your belly
- Turn to your side, i am not falling asleep but my arm is! Where does your arm go when you lay on your side?
- Ok, now turn onto your back – how do people sleep like this?
- Roll onto the other side, that takes your breath away, and now the other arm is falling asleep
- Turn onto your back again, that also takes your breath away, and its still not comfortable
- Sit up for a moment, let your lungs get back into place, get up walk to the kitchen, get a glass of water, sigh, walk back to bed
- Try laying on your back again, is it really going to be any more comfortable this time round?
- Leg cramp, owie owie owie owie! Get up again, stretch the cramp out
- Back on side, fight with the body pillow, arm falls asleep before you again… sigh
- Repeat steps one to nine until the alarm finally goes off and you realise you have to face the day once again – there will never be enough make up to fix these bags!
If someone is too tired to give you a smile, leave one of your own, because no one needs a smile as much as those who have none to give. Anon
