30-3-2009 - Am I EVER going to sleep again!?

My mood while writing this blog: exhausted

Ok... so this isn't my first pregnancy, it's my third, so I should be a pro at this by now right? Well, that's what I thought! This little one is just throwing me for loops though. Overall, it hasn't been a "BAD" pregnancy, somethings have been harder than my other two, but I'm older and each pregnancy is different. So now, I can not sleep at all... little cat naps here and there and that's about it. No restful nights sleep has been in my cards for a couple weeks now. I am naturally a "belly-sleeper" I LOVE sleeping on my stomach and of course I can't do that anymore, nor can I sleep on my back. Options? Side sleeping, of course! But lately now when I'm sleeping on my side, my hips, back and legs get these HORRIBLE sharp pains that radiate and wake me up! It's so painful, I wake up, switch sides and the same thing happens over and over again until my alarm finally goes off and I'm stuck being a prego-zombie for the rest of the day! LOL :0) I've tried pillows between my legs and under my tummy... but all I feel like trying now is some real good sleeping meds! Sure I'll be in excruciating pain when I wake up, but oh the sleep I'll get! LOL Anyone have any recommendations?

THANKS!
