SLEEEEP!!!

Last night was the first night since Friday that i got some sleep...well it was more then 3 hours which i have been getting the past couple of nights. So that means i have had another day off work.

I went to see my Doctor last night and he was a bit worried about the whole not sleeping thing as for most pregnant women they tend to sleep more... But i guess i like being difficult lol. Anyway another concern he had was that because i have had depression and anxity he is worried that the lack of sleep might trigger it again, so he tried to find some medication that he could put me on to help. Thank god he couldn't find any because i didn't really want to take a pill to help me sleep, i have been so good to not take anything (apart from panadol), the best medication that he could find was a Class C medication (in other words don't take it unless you it is the last resort).

My Doctor told me that there was 4 classes A - being good to take, B- meaning it is ok, C-don't take it if you have too and last of all D- DO NOT TAKE!! So by the end of the appointment me he gave me a sheet on insomnia (which all the stuff i already know as i read it in "What to expect when your expecting"). Also he told me to find something natural to help me sleep, but i have been there and done that when i had insomnia before and it didn't work.

So i guess the only thing that i can do is try and get into a routine to help me sleep, so last night i had a bath and sat down and watched some TV with DH and then went to bed...although i waited til i felt a bit tired and that was at 10:30pm and then went to bed, and that is not going to help when i am going to go back to work tomorrow and starting at 6:30am.

I am not looking forward to going back to work tomorrow, but the good thing is that i have a Doctors certificate but i doubt that anyone will really care about it. I am really thinking when i go back to work full time i am going to look for another job as i am starting to hate working with people that don't really give a damn if you are pregnant, if your sick, or what ever...i know that it is like this probably where ever you work but i don't know i am really going to think about things while i have time off and i think i might take a management course and see what comes up there.


Anyway on the baby front he has been really active which has been really nice and i am starting to feel when i press on my belly where he is. Also i think DH and i have choosen a name!!

The Insomnia continues

Like the title suggest i still have insomnia. I woke up this morning at 6am to get ready for work, sat on the edge of the bed and burst into tears. I was so tired and couldn't even put my clothes on...mind you i did end up putting my work clothes (determination) and walked down stairs to see DH standing there asking me whats wrong (as he must have known that i was crying) i ended sitting on the couch with him for 30 minutes crying and with him telling me not to go to work. I eventually caved and called work to tell them that i wasn't coming in.

I feel so bad for not going into work again and i know everyone will be cursing my name as i have work that needs to be done, but what can i do when i walk around and stand all day and i know i won't be able to function.

I will be heading into the doctors today (as i need a doctors certificate) and see what he can do, i have also put a shout out on BH to see if any of those ladies know of anything i can do.

Insomnia

Well I think i have insomnia. For the past 3 nights there has been so much lack of sleep that i think i am going to go crazy!!!!

I had to have a day off work today as i couldn't even lift myself up off the bed to get ready for work, and then i felt so bad when i rang into work to tell them that i wasn't coming in and they told me that none of the morning staff had come in as they were all off sick...i felt so bad, but what can i do, i guess you really can't help how you feel.

After i had some sleep this morning...which i just managed to get as i kept waking up and i think that all up i had 4 hours. I decided to clean the cupboards in the baby's room and our room, I was really surprised as i thought that it was going to be a big job but it only took me 2 hours all up, there was some really heavy stuff that i will need to get DH to move when he gets home from work. But all up it is all coming together nicely and i am so glad that i am actually doing something now and not waiting til the last minute.

Oh something really cute happened this morning, DH called me into the baby's room this morning as he was leaving for work to find that Hamish (our Kitten) had fallen asleep in the cot and he looked so cute and comfortable.
