Sleep Deprived...
I haven't been able to sleep well for the past few weeks.
I wake up with my hands asleep and after waving my arms around, massaging my fingers, walking around, they finally wake up-- only to have this start up again sometime during the night.
My fingers are stiff and a little swollen and my ring fingers hurt when I bend them, especially in the morning. I know-- I have to cut down on salt and drink more water. I am trying. The doctor says the only thing I can do is give birth. Great.
I am so tired, I can barely keep my eyes open today, and my legs are now achey too.... I guess this is what the third trimester feels like for me. I'll take it-- as long as I can continue to feel our little kicking and moving, all of this is worth it and just fine.
Oh-- I did purchase a body pillow and tried using it last night. At first it was hard to get comfortable, but then I got used to it. It's okay right now, I'm not loving it yet- I hope I do. It's kind of like hugging a giant sausage. Ha Ha.
Anyhoo-- it's going to be a cooooold weekend here but I am so glad it's Friday. I am counting the hours until I can be on my comfy couch watching hours of food network. I know, exciting.
Have a great weekend!
Please G-d keep our little safe, growing and healthy...

if you think you are sleep deprived now- wait until the baby is born! (I;m saying this at 7:30am after being awake since yesterday morning!)

I loved my pillow (they weren't called budy pillows bakc when I was PG with Nick). I would wrap my legs around it and just sleep the whole night. I hope it helps you as much as it did me!
I agree, too, with Gemini. Just wait until you really see sleepless nights, LOL!
