Yes, it's 5:30 in the morning and I am wide awake. I've been up since who knows when, maybe 3:30 or so. Every day it's the same- go to bed around 11:30, wake up at some point in the middle of the night and then can't go back to sleep. Truly, this is Mother Nature's cruelest joke. Yes, I realize that very shortly I will be getting up every few hours to tend to a newborn. But that's just it- I don't have to do that right now, so why the heck can't I sleep? Shouldn't it be like a squirrel before hibernation who stores up as many acorns as possible? I get to sleep all I want now because I won't be getting it very soon. Seems logical to me. But apparently my logic is bass ackwards or I'm just messed up and normal people really do get to do that. And can I please go for at least one 24-hour period without nausea or a headache? I'm so excited to not feel like barfing anymore. Haven't experienced that since some time in late July.
Oy.
So if you see me during the day looking completely zombie-fied, now you know why.

I know I've said it before, but hang tough, sweetie. It's just a matter of days now. Catch sleep when you can - you know, like the mother of a newborn!! Can't wait to see all of you!
Think of this as training for the upcoming multiple late night/early morning feedings that will soon become such a "wonderful" part of your life. You should also be working on tha elbow muscle so you can nudge Paul and have him take care of the Sadester in the middle of the night. That's what husbands are for right?
Come out Sadie!
I totally understand. I do the same thing for the last three months of every pregnacny. I can't wait to have a baby just to have a reason to be up at that time. You look great though.
Oh I thought for sure that baby would be here by now. What is she waiting for anyway? Did you jump on a trampoline or go down a slide or ummmmm.....There is this other really good way that labor is supposed to start. You might try that. I am not saying what it is though. HEHEHEHE
