sleep. Before the ‘Big Day’ again. But that is too much to ask isn’t it??!!
I go back into the hospital to try for the induction again and this is the night that I really need a good nights rest (as it’s hard to sleep in a hospital) but I can’t get it. Why?? Acid Reflux. Tonight it has been particularly bad. So……I am awake at 3:30am and on the computer.

Thankfully, I don’t have to be at the hospital until 2pm again. So I have a bit of time to go back to bed and try and get more sleep. As I am already packed and ready to go from last time

I had reflexology on Friday after I got home from the hospital and it was really nice. So if it doesn’t help anything, it was a nice way to spend an hour. Then on Saturday, my mum generously spent an hour massaging my feet for me!! It was sooo nice AND then…..last night (sunday) Rick spent an hour massaging my feet as well. And when he came with me over the weekend for my CTG’s he has been rubbing my feet in the wards as well. So I have had a nice relaxing weekend of foot massage. And it has been lovely!!

So after all of that, I kicked Rick to the spare room for the night so that I could make sure I got a good nights sleep, only to end up ruining it for myself without his help. I hate this. I have absolutely 100% had ENOUGH of this!

for the baby to come out now.
Bedtime is becoming more and more undesirable, as the quality of sleep I am getting is rubbish. And I don’t even have the baby here yet. I hate it when I hear “it’s getting you prepared for when your baby is here”. That is BS. The reason I am having bad sleep is because I am pregnant and I wake up every 2-3 hours with acid reflux and the water I drink at those times is waking me up also, as I am busting to go to the bathroom. I can’t sleep on my back. I can’t sleep on my right side (my fave side) as it’s quite painful for me. And my hips are really painful every morning now too. I won’t be going through any of those things once the baby is born. I will be going through a whole new set of feelings along with tiredness.

Anyway, there really isn’t anything I can do about it. I am just very lucky that I don’t have to wake up at the crack of dawn to get ready for work. I am able to sleep in a little while to try and get a couple of hours of decent sleep in the bed alone.

I will hopefully be seeing an OB this week as well as the Diabetes Educator. I am thinking of asking for another ultrasound to get an idea of how big baby is as I am totally freaking out since my last appointment. As I was measuring quite big. I am also thinking of having some reflexology on my feet done as I have read/heard that it can help bring on labour….. so we will see.
