Gestational Narcolepsy

I am so tired I feel like I could just fall over asleep at any moment. Every time I lie down and try to get comfortable, though, the baby gives me a jab to the bladder and I have to get up to go pee. I don’t think I’ve slept any longer than two hours at a stretch in the past couple of weeks (and usually it’s less than that), and the deprivation is starting to take its toll. (Please, if you have any regard at all for me, do NOT say that these last few weeks are good “practice” for having a newborn.)

  1. LOL! Well I wasn’t going to say that, but I was going to say that I read that sleep deprivation during those last few weeks is nature’s way of preparing us for the sleep deprivation afterwards. 😉 But my thoughts are that mother nature should quit smoking crack and let us get all the sleep we can!
