If it's your first pregnancy...

Make the most of your rest! This pregnancy has been exhausting for me. I have a 17 month old who doesn't nap, wakes up realy early and goes to bed sometimes as late as 10;30!! I'm sooo tired, I remember being pregnant with her I could sleep when, and as much as I wanted. Make the most of it ladies. I'm jealous!

So true. My first I got to sleep all I wanted and went to moms in the evening to eat. Hub worked on river barges. Now.... total opposite. Mom is 3hrs away. No sleep as a result of 2yr old work and insomnia.

I remember after D was born it was valentines day. He was 11days old. Hub bought a bottle of wine and we sat in the living room for a while talking then when we went to "cuddle" in bed D woke up I went took care of him by the time I got back hub was sleeping too. One if ny fondest valentines days. Always remember the moment with a smile on my face.

100% agree. This my second as well my daughter is 21 months and still wakes up in the middle of the night.  I love when people are like " if your tired take nap"  and I'm like" ummm and when do you think I have time for these naps you speak of" lol.

I just had my first and he is 3 weeks old today. He sleeps during the day and is up every hour or so at night. If i sleep during the day i will wake my fiance who has to wake up at 5am when i am restless at night. I miss being tired and actually sleeping. I second this!! Sleeping is one of the few things i miss from being pregnant. I also miss cuddling with my fiance.. My baby wakes almost everytime i try :/

I agree!! The first pregnancy went SO slow because I had nothing to do, and I didn't enjoy the sleep at all, this one I'm trying to slow down and enjoy following a 3 1/2 year old and I can't, haha! :(
