Let the sleepless nights begin

Slept for about 2 hours at a time last night (or at least that’s how it felt), constantly having to get up for a wee and then horrendous heartburn both contributed to the general discomfort. Not to mention the fact it takes me about 2 minutes to turn over in bed (or heave to as Eddie kindly puts it). Urgh.

Brain on overdrive worrying about childbirth, but I have a plan and hopefully it’ll work for me. As Lowly said this morning, it’s all about your pain threshold, and I’m no woose so with a bit of luck I’ll get through it relatively unscathed. Much as I enjoy all the classes, I’m at the information saturation point now. A girl at Wednesday’s class said the same – you get to a stage where you just know too much.

Just one more marathon NCT to go now on Saturday, but I’ll be on my own as Eddie has tickets to NZ vs England at Twickers. Suspect he’s going to be the envy of every other Father-to-Be at the class!
