The other night was the worst night of sleep yet. It all started because Ella couldn't get to sleep. After about 2 hours of telling her to go to bed, I finally broke down and rocked her to sleep like I did when she was a baby. I think after all that she just wanted her mommy. When I went to bed, which I put off because of heart burn, I had to sleep propped up and on my side. I have really bad heart burn and this time around I also have acid reflux. While laying on one side, I got uncomfortable and tried to roll over. Well, that made the baby squish my bladder and I had to get up and go to the bathroom. I went about 5 times that night. I also have restless leg syndrome. Then my hips hurt. All this I experienced with Ella and Olivia, minus the acid reflux. On top of it all, Olivia decided to wake up and not go back to sleep.
Well, last night, right when the heart burn started, I got a sweet tooth. There was nothing that was really sweet in the house except otter pops that I bought for the girls. I ate one and the heart burn stopped, then I ate 2 more. I slept great last night! I needed it so bad. I don't expect it to happen like that every night, but it is worth the try.
