Mrs Bexie... Amen to that! You know what, I had more than 2 - 3 hours broken sleep with DD as a newborn, plus if your DH gets bub up and brings her into you for a feed occasionally you can stay in bed, feed and have him rock her back to sleep!
I'm over these sleepless nights too, it's the heartburn that keeps me up for hours.... but at least when our babies are here what little sleep we do get will be COMFORTABLE! No more waking up a thousand times to pee, or because i've had acid reflux and practically thrown up in bed, or leg cramps, sore hips. And yeah, you'll still be tired, but it's easier to deal with the sleep deprivation when you get newborn cuddles
I get more sleep now that bubby is here than I did when I was pregnant!!
When I was on maternity leave, each week I'd put how many weeks I had left as my status update on facebook and the week that I said I had 2 weeks left, 2 of my "friends" commented that I shouldn't get my hopes up and that I more than likely had 4 weeks left. I snippily commented back that of course I realise I'm not going to have her on my due date but that it's fun to count down and could they not pI$$ on my parade, kthnx! LOL, very apologetic after that and I ended up having her 2 days after my due date anyway! LOL
It's very frustrating. But I have to agree with Kate too, the comments just keep coming after bubby arrives.
I definately get more sleep now than I did before pregnant too! I had horrible heartburn and was up all night with it in pain now bub is here she is good and gets heaps of sleep
It only gets better when bubs here too soo many people are like they are cute now wait till they get older, my kids were good and now they are feral like seriously can't you just smile and say congrats than walk away rather than telling me how bad your children are!
