A question and bump pictures.

Hey ladies! So I'm almost to the 6 month mark and I cannot sleep. I fall asleep fine, but wake up 2-3 times a night and sometimes can't go back to sleep at all. Sometimes I'm just awake and sometimes it's because I cannot get comfortable at all. Any advice?

1. You are freaking adorable.
2. Do you have a pregnancy pillow? Since I got mine I sleep much better.

Thank you! :)
And no, I've just been using a regular pillow between my knees. Where does one get a pregnancy pillow?

BRU carries them and I saw a Boppy body pillow at Target yesterday. They really do help once your belly starts to get big.

Cool, thanks!

I'm agreeing on the adorable.
and a body pillow from walmart or whatever will work wonders, I'm starting to get worried that I won't be able to sleep without it after I have the baby. I wake up alot in the middle of the night to turn over since my hips have been killing me!

You too! :) I think will be going to target after work tonight. I hear you on the hip pain, that's been the worst part so far.

I don't have any advice really (I'm having the same sleep issues...) but I just wanted to say that it looks like we're doing the same kind of outfits - shirt + mostly unbuttoned cardigan. Also, cute top!

LOL this is my current look almost every day. I decided I hated all maternity sweaters so I stocked up on cardigans. And I can still wear them next winter!

My doctor recommended a 25 mg tablet of benadryl to help with sleep. I feel your pain!

I'm 27w, I had this problem for about a week or two a couple weeks ago. It magically resolved itself this week, though, thank god. I was SO TIRED.

One thing that helped some nights was taking benadryl before bed then keeping another dose by my bedside to take if I woke up in the middle of the night.
