My Cerclage

In September 2005, I was pregnant with twin girls. I lost my pregnancy at 19 weeks apparently due to my "incompetent cervix." I became pregnant again and wrote all about it on this blog. I now have a wonderful son. Since bed rest, anxiety and cerclage were so much fun, I've decided to do it all again.....

Why Am I Awake?

Tell me? My husband is snoring next to me. The baby is asleep in his temporary room (oh yes, we are still living in the hovel. We will not be home until the weekend of March 22nd!!) I am totally exhausted.

Why I am awake?

I'm making a list:

1. I am living in a hovel.
2. I am nearly 34(!) weeks pregnant and my body does not get comfy easily at sleep time.
3. I am a terrible insomniac.I have been my whole life. In fact, I can't believe I haven't dedicated more blog time to my sleep issues. They're major.
4. I am filled with anxiety over nothing and everything (hence: sleep issues). A few of things I can do nothing about at midnight that make me worry: ruining my son's life with a new baby, preschool for said son, labor--this subject will get its own post soon, having two children under two, my unfinished house and my poor dog.

You know what? I'm really tired after writing all that. Maybe my list worked as good sleep hygiene.I am ready to put my issues to bed (no pun intended) and actually drift away to dream land.

I know you can't tell me why I am awake anyway.

Get some rest! I think women have more insomnia (even more than usual) right before they have babies to get them ready for what's to come. Oh joy!

Ahh, the insomnia. The fun just never stops, does it?

Thanks for your comment over at my blog. I always check yours, too, since yours was the first one I started reading. Remember back when a google search for "cerclage" would lead straight here? That's how I discovered the IF blogosphere!
