Night parties!!

So... Here I lay at 3:15 am wide awake! What started as a simple trip to pee has now turned into another sleepless night! This happens almost on a nightly basis now. I wake up at some ungodly hour because I have to pee.... I quietly go into the bathroom try to pee quietly, at first I flushed the toilet, then i didn't, but have come to realize it doesn't make a difference, go back to bed and 5 minutes later it starts... PARTY FOR ONE!!! Baby is up and at it for what seems like hours. Dancing, kicking punching!!! I can't get comfortable or fall back asleep... Does this happen to anyone else???

Awh! It's so sweet hearing all your stories of your baby movements!  I love feeling my little guy move - such an awesome experience! I don't recall my first baby moving so much during the night hours like this little guy does!

Sometimes it feels like it was just yesterday we were all hoping to get to that 12 week mark and now we are in the home stretch! Last night I didn't have to pee (YAY) so he stayed sleeping and so did I!! So I finally got a good nights sleep! Hopefully it continues for a little bit!!

haha I wake up to pee a couple of times in the night, but I have a very quiet girl in there. She is usually asleep when I am asleep. (hoping she keeps these habits once she is here too!) hahaha But it's so hard to get comfy anymore, I literally sleep with like 5-6 pillows, hugging one, one for my belly, one between my knees and two for my head since I need to elevated because of horrible acid reflux. It's ridiculous. At this point, I won't feel better until she is here! Not too much longer girls!! :)

I'm right there with all of you too! Although it's not so much the baby's movements that keep me up, I just can't get comfortable. My back and the muscles around my belly are just killing me! Oh, and the fact that I'm up about every hour and half to pee doesn't help any! LOL!

i fall asleep hard! I actually fall asleep TO her kicking :) When i wake up to pee sometimes it wakes her and other times it does not. My baby likes to sleep (a lot) so i don't feel any regular scheduled movements.

I'm in the sleepless phase too! Although, I wake up because I find myself on my back, as soon as I roll over he gets frisky. I feel so guilty though, I wake up on my back 5-6 times a night!!! I can't tell how my guy is laying either, I feel kicks/punches above my belly button and way down below my waist! And on either side. I do love his movements while he still has room to move :)

This happens to me also. I don't think my baby is awoke until the sun goes down, and then it is PLAYTIME!!!. I toss and turn, cry a little bit, and then plead with baby to be still, but of course it never works. This is extremely hard when I have to go to work the next day, but it is well worth it knowing that in a few weeks, I will have my baby in my arms.
