Dreams...
Being pregnant gives me terrible awful dreams. I'm constantly waking up, crying, panicking and terrified that something terrible had happened to Clay or Jack. It's affecting my ability to get more than 5 hours of sleep a night. Clayton jokes that I still get more sleep than he does - which is true, but I can't function on 5 hours of sleep when I'm NOT pregnant. . .Being pregnant I need like...12 hours of sleep a night. Arg.
Last night I had a dream that Clay, Jack and I were on a plane and it couldn't get up high enough in the air. So, we were hitting the tops of cars and power lines and the flight attendant was driving the plane from the back. At some point there was a floating car, it looked like someone was dragging it by the back wheels and then threw it over the edge. Magically I was there helping get the car and as we pulled it out (we being myself and my coworkers...) Clay was dead in the driver's seat. I woke up shaking and called Clay, who of course was on his way to work in the 8 inches of snow we've gotten so he couldn't answer the phone so I proceeded to freak out and thing the worst. Needless to say, I've been up since 4:30.
We find out the gender of the little one in my belly on December 21st. I can't wait. Hopefully this one is a girl so I never have to be pregnant again. This pregnancy has been such a different experience from Jack. With Jack I was starving all of the time, I gained close to 30 pounds, I slept perfectly until I was 30 weeks, thew up only once, napped all of the time...With this one I can't sleep, I can't nap with a toddler, I'm never hungry, I've lost 16 pounds, etc and so on. I've also gotten terrible headaches that last for days.
Thank goodness it's Friday. Hope all is well!
