Waking Life

Every night, I wake once for each of the following reasons:
  • Drink water
  • Go pee
  • Snap out of a really bizarre dream
  • Turn over because I am laying on my right side and perhaps cutting off the baby's blood supply. Paranoia never sleeps.
  • Kick Daddy R so he stops snoring or breathing garlic-breath on my face...or both
I think I average about 2 hours of uninterrupted sleep per night. After February, I can replace the "Turn over off my right side" with "Feed Baby" and increase the waking frequency from 'once' to "x times/night". Joy.
I have heard that the sleep thing gets worse too. I think somewhere around the time when my belly entirely obscures my feet from my view, I won't be able to sleep on my back either. Yet another cutting off blood supply thing.

Well...the lack of sleep makes me feel like the walking dead...does that count?
