32 Weeks

I finally said it this morning, and I said it aloud.

I am ready to not be pregnant anymore, I would like
this baby to come out now.

Yup, those words have come out of my mouth, and I will tell you why. I can’t get a good
nights sleep anymore, which I haven’t for months anyway but haven’t mind because this lil blessing I’m carrying is so long awaited! But now I really can’t get any sleep.

Jake has been on the couch for months because he just can’t stand my hogging of the whole bed and all my moving, but now I’ve come out into his living room bedroom and have taken the floor and the couch. Each have failed me, as well as his good nights sleep ;) I’ve tried piling all the cushions on the floor to make me a more cushy bedding for my belly (our bed is too hard now) and this helped tremendously! So what’s the problem, you ask? Well the problem is I go to the bathroom 5 times at night and my roundness can’t get itself up off the ground!!!!! Which then causes me to get a belly cramp ( a Charlie horse in my belly!) which then leads me to scream, which then leads to waking up Daddy and scaring him.

Ok, now lets move on to the couch. Oh our couch. So comfy. Also Jake’s bed for the past recent months. I tried it out last night and so far so good. Just as comfy as it was in early pregnancy when I needed the extra softness to sleep well. And then it happened. The continuous falling to the back of the couch causing me to not be able to breath. Jumbo Jake has worn the cushions out. There is no longer any support towards the back of the couch, causing me to roll to the back and not able to prop myself into a breathable position, no matter how many pillows I’ve tried.

In all honesty and in a nutshell – I do enjoy being pregnant. Despite all the not-so-fun symptoms, the swelling and the weight gain, I am thankful for this blessing inside of me and look forward to the next one :)

    haha! I know the feeling! I always find that I after I get up and go to the bathroom I have a terrible time going back to sleep. It’s like my brain suddenly wakes up, and there is no shutting it off. I remember with my first pregnancy having a terrible time sleeping because I would roll over onto my back and wake up not being able to breathe. Everyone always said it was just good practice for having a newborn, but I really don’t understand why we need practice at not getting any sleep! Hope you can find a way to get comfortable soon.

    I remember how how it was to turn over when I was pregnant with twins. Everyone thought I was going to explode at any minute. I hope the baby comes soon. Just wait until you get to hold he/she. All the sleeplessness with be worth it.

    A good night’s sleep is hard to come during the third trimester! And just because one position worked one night does not necessarily mean it will work again the next night. :-) I’m eagerly anticipating the arrival of our little one as well. :-)

      Oh I hear ya on that! I was able to get cozy by siting up in bed with lots of pillows all around me, but that one time was the only time it has worked since :(

      I have been checking in on you. Aren’t you “over due?”

      • Carrie says:

        My due date was last Wednesday. :-) It’s been nice enjoying the Christmas season with my family. I know that as soon as our precious baby arrives a lot of my time will be spent taking care of him/her. So we’ve been having fun with just our little family of four. :-)
