Ok, so it is 3:15 am here and I've been up for an hour already- again. Anyone else having trouble sleeping?? It seems like I am just uncomfortable then my stomach bothers me and I have to get up... I guess baby is preparing me for when he or she arrives... (I'm 17 weeks today)

I dont' sleep well either, my dear. I toss and turn most of the night or when I wake up in the middle of the night to pee, the baby wakes up and starts kicking me so I end up awake from that. I swear I wake up more tired than I go to sleep.

I find that I have to thoroughly exhaust myself and not got to bed until my eyes are closing on their own and then I tend to sleep through most of the night.

I am so tired of switching side all thru the night. I am about to buy all type of size of pillows and try to sleep as comfortable as I can.

in the past two weeks I've started being so conscious of my belly that I wake up if it's slightly being pressed, or I roll over or something!!!

Golly the trials and tribulations of pregnancy! :)
