ARRRRRRGGGGGHHHHH!!!!

i can't take much more of this! i get back ache from being in one positon for too long so get woken up by it throughout the night and have to keep changing positions problem is after about 5 hours of tossing and turning it is so bad i can't sleep anymore so at about 4 every morning i have to get up and watch and film or read until hubby gets up at 6:30 and i have have the bed to myself and use the duvet to prop myself up on my front and doze the rest of the morning.

I am absolutley sick to death of missing half the day by trying to catch up on sleep, and sick of never getting a proper nights sleep. I know wen lo arrives i won't be getting much sleep either but at least i'll be able to sleep when i can and want to unlike now where i want to be asleep but the constant pain in my back is stopping me. I just can't wait to go into labour and be rid of this problem.

I have spoken to the midwife about it and bascially there's nothing i can do except the normal prop myself up with pillows which is useless. I know i just have to put up with it but needed to rant to someone other than huby as i thik he's getting relly bored hearing me moan about have to stay in bed all morning when he's at work! i don't blame him really.

anyone else got insomnia rants to get off their chest?
