My new sleep pattern

[flexilexi394]

God I hope this sleep pattern I've created is of use when the baby comes.

Basically I can't sleep til midnight. I wake up about 4, wait for OHs alarm at quarter to 7 and go make him and me breakfast. So I just sit there (I live with my mum and brother so can't really get up at 4 and potter round) then I get to about 10 am and really can't stay awake!

So I sleep til 1 in the afternoon.

Anyone else???

I was doing quite well with sleep but not now!!

I'm just hoping my body is practicing for the babys arrival haha x

I pretty much wake up every hour or so after 2, needing to pee, needing a drink or LO kicks me too hard. Not fun but I manage to survive without a nap but crawl into bed at 9. lol x

It's savage isnt it! I must say I've been real lucky with toilet trips and hardly get up more than once for a wee and I have loads to drink before I go to bed, think I'm just lucky lol. But god when I'm wide awake I can't do anything about it! Drives me bonkers! X

yeah I am the same, go to sleep before 10, awake between 1-2, awake again at 4 and if the fader on my brain becomes too turned on I end up awake getting showered and making the evenings meal. If I manage to get off asleep again I wake up 7ish then need a nap at 3-4ish for an hour I forgot how it is to sleep through

I'm the same. Bed about 11, up again about 2am then what feels like every hour after that. Most frustrating part is i need the toilet but i wake up with a thirst so have to take some water which just makes me go again. I have been snoring terribly aswell have even woken myself up with it a few times.

As you say it's all a tiny bit of preparation for when baby gets here. Just a tiny bit.

I'm usually in bed for 10,then wake up between 1:30 and 2:30 for about an hour then wake up again at half 5. Then always have a kip in the late mornin/afternoon if I get chance x

So glad everyones following similar patterns! Must be baby preparations, how clever of our bodies eh! I used to feel really sick in the day if I napped but now I can nap anytime and be ok, at least I know if baby is asleep I'll be able to kip x

I have a funny pattern too, we are all close in stages so must be a built in pregnancy thing.

Flexi - your sleep patttern is not too off a new babys actually!

I'm like Reych, I have to try not to wake brain when going to the loo or that's me up and awake then!

I go to bed early, OH stays up late, comes up at 2am, and wakes me accidently, then I fall asleep again and he snores loudly and I wake again, and get up and make bread instead and watch baby shows on health channel till kids wake. I can't wait to find out if I can nap in the days my kids will be in school this time round.
