What is the deal??? It's almost 11:30pm (which, yes, is quite early for this night owl) but I've been in bed since 10 and cannot sleep. And yes, I'm exhausted. I haven't had a good night's rest in awhile and am just beat. So I should be able to lay my head down on my pillow and fall fast asleep (like my dear husband who I'm envying badly right now for that).
Ugh. It's frustrating.
I know Paula, too, is having this issue, so I'm not alone. But it doesn't help when tomorrow comes around and Christian is rearing to play and Mommy feels like she's been hit by a semi truck.
Any advice, ladies? (assuming only ladies read this blog...Boys, if you're out there, prove me wrong with a comment). lol
Good night. I'm off to toss and turn myself to sleep. Wish me luck!

6 VERY much appreciated comments:
I totally remember that when I was prego with the girls! I just heard a study, for real, that a bowl of ice cream can help put you to sleep. Your body has to warm up with the cold of the ice cream and so it helps induce sleep. I would give it a try! Also, I know if you really need to you can take on of the OTC sleeping aids, just ask Cooper which one is alright, I think it's Unisom. Good Luck!!
I totally feel your pain!! Seriously, it's killing me. I just want to sleep, that's all. :-( I really don't think it's TOO much to ask! I will keep praying that you some sleep too! I'm so sorry I wasn't there on Sunday...I suck! Love you!
My Ob/gyn had me take an over the counter sleeping pill, but only 1/2 of a pill. It knocked me out for two days. The next time I did it I took 1/4 of a pill. It was perfect. I don't know if you remember, but it was when we were living there and I was pregnant with Spencer.
A browine, glass of milk and a banana were my cure for everything when I was prego, it cures heart burn, helped me sleep in the middle of the night, and cured my leg cramps. Keep a note pad and paper by your bed to write down everything running through your head. Also Tylenol PM lady, take it for a couple of nights, it is safe while prego and your body is over tired so it needs a bit of help getting to sleep. Good luck
I totally feel for you! I can usually get to sleep fine to start with, but when I wake up around 3 or 4 am to go to the bathroom I will lay there for 3 hours and fall asleep 15 min. before I have to get up! So frustrating!
Poor Rach! This happens to me every day that I don't go walking. I can't sleep well unless I have done some kind of exercising. Even if I'm really tired. That's why I'm up right now, because I didn't go walking yesterday!
