Last night I woke up around 3 AM with energy and a filled mind. I couldn't fall back asleep. Instead I tossed, I turned, I thought about flowers and babies, I sat up and laid back down, I sang Rick Aistley in my head, and around 5 AM I woke up Jacob. In tears. Absolutely frustrated. Lucky for me ... Jacob is the most understanding and calming person for me to be living my life with. He rubbed my back and ears, talked me out of my tears, and within 15 minutes I feel right asleep.
This morning I talked to my midwife about this, and she said it's natures way of preparing me for motherhood. She advised me to watch movies or read, to get out of bed during the night, and learn to nap during the day. I feel better about talking to her (as always!) and will have to begin taking things slower.
There are only 5 more weeks until I'm due, and I just can't believe how fast this time has gone by. The most exciting part of my life is about to happen...

Never gonna make you cry, never gonna say goodbye, never gonna tell a lie and desert you.
Truer words were never spoken. Rick Astley, you're more a prophet than a singer.
