I just want to sleep and it's driving me mad!
Yesterday afternoon and last night I was very uncomfortable, and knew I'd have trouble sleeping, so I left it late until I went to bed, knowing I'd be more likely to sleep. about 11.30pm I had a lovely bath and about 12.30am tried goig to sleep.
Between the weeing which I seemed to do every 15-20 minutes, the pressure in my bits, the stabbing pains UP my bits, the tummy tightenings, heartburn and backache I just couldn't drop off.
So about 2am I got up and decided to have a milky drink (really didn't help heartburn wise) and sit in the lounge for a bit, thinking maybe things weren't as bad as I was making out and it seemed a lot worse as I was frustrating myself.
Nope, I was in agony.
So I took the back and seat cushions off the sofa and arranged them all on the floor as this is where I seem to be comfiest and managed to get myself reasonably comfy back and leg wise, only I had to keep getting up every 20 minutes of so to wee
and I don't know whether it was coincidence or the movements but them my tummy tightenings would start again.
At 3am OH came down with the duvet and joined me so I wouldn't be lonely, bless him, but I still felt awful.
6am when OH got up for work I was still awake! I had some cereal thinking maybe a full tummy would make me sleepier and I'd drop off and managed to drop off to sleep just after 7am, o the lounge floor. 10am I was awake, uncomfy and irritable too
Now I just can't do anything. If I sit it hurts, if I potter about it hurts, I just want a few hours sleep, you wouldn't think it'd be too much to ask really? So I'm going to get my bits and bobs done now, as OH will be home 12.30ish for lunch and to check on me, and when he goes back after 1pm I'm going to have another bath and try and get comfy.
It's just so annoying as the MW always says things along the lines of "Oooh you look tired, make sure you get plenty of sleep" blah blah blah like I stay up partying or something!
