9th month and Sleeping

What is it about the 9th month and not being able to sleep? It's so terrible. Every night I'm up walking around till 3 or 4am and then I sleep pretty good until 8/9am. My body is so restless and awake when everyone else is sleeping. You would think it would be easier to sleep because our bodies hurt all over.

Is it because were just anxious to see our babies?
