I can't remember the last time I slept through an entire night. I wake up every couple of hours to switch sides. It is kind of a big deal to switch sides when you are 36 weeks pregnant, in case you were wondering. Needless to say I am pretty tired at night. Well last night took the cake. I woke up not knowing where I was or if I was awake or asleep. I looked over in the corner and thought I saw a bunch of spiders and other bugs climbing up the wall. I apparently screamed loudly and threw myself onto Orion.
Once I realize that I am awake I find myself listening to Orion's pounding heart. He keeps asking what is wrong. I now feel stupid and tell him I thought I saw some bugs on the wall. He thought someone was breaking in or that I had go into labor. Poor guy. He offers me his cell phone as light to make sure there are no bugs on the wall. Even in the middle of the night he is sweet to me. Turns out there was no bugs. It took us awhile to fall back asleep after that. I can't wait till I no longer have to switch sides in the middle of the night. It will be glorious when I can sleep on my back. Of course by that time the baby will probably be waking me up every couple of hours anyways.
It's true about the baby waking you up, but those 3 hours you will sleep on your back will be glorious! :) so much fun!
