Sleep is wasted on me.

I haven't slept right for the past few nights.  I had this problem last week and it's starting to get to me.  At night I'm up for hours at a time just tossing and turning. Although when I do sleep it's pretty decent...but it takes me hours to wake up.  I can't shake the sleepies.  I know it's because I am so uncomfortable.  I can't roll over by myself.  And if I somehow manage to lay on my back, it's like a turtle trying to get off its' back.  I keep telling myself that I won't be like this forever.  Eventually he will be out and although I'll have to deal with a newborn then, maybe sleep won't be so difficult. 

I'm sure I'm going to those words hardcore.

I'm not sure if my lack of sleep is causing my next problem: severe mood swings.  They aren't like the mood swings I've had so far.  Basically I've been crying like it's going out of style.  Yea, it's probably lack of sleep and me stressing out and all the bullshit that goes into late (LATE) pregnancy.  All I know is that I want it to stop.  Everytime Greg turns the corner I'm crying for some reason or another.

To make matters worse; Greg's sister (Lori), 16 year old neice (Donea) and twin nephews (Zach and Aaron) were in a car accident last night.  They were taken by ambulence to Hershey Medical Center and the kids were admitted.  It's super difficult to get any sort of information.  I know that Donea was driving (she just got her permit, pulled out in front of a car, and was t-boned), one of the twins had to have emergency surgery.  We also got news that one of the twins fractured his neck but we don't know which one.  Scary stuff.

Who knows maybe all of this excitement will send me into labor, although I'm doubtful.  I haven't had a SINGLE contraction since they stripped my membranes.  Although I'm having more of a discharge, I'm suprised I'm not having more of the "pre"labor pains anymore.  I just want this baby out and in my arms.  :(  I swear he's never coming out. 

Until Next Time:
