suddenly i'm the princess and the pea


it's official, i've turned that corner where i'm now the pregnant woman who can't get comfortable at night.  i thought i was there a few weeks ago, but no.  my sides are really sore from laying on them all the time.  i would love to lay on my back but apparently that is verboten.  

a couple of nights ago i was so sore and frustrated i ended up going to the much softer couch.  our bed is a good bed but i just needed a little extra fluff.  still, i ended up doing a crossword puzzle on my iphone before drifting off at 4am even with the comfy sofa.

it would be so sad if i were to leave the marital bed until the baby is born so last night i layered my side of the bed with lots of big fluffy comforters.  ahhhh....relief!   for a little while.  at first the downy pillow puff of my side of the bed was like a giant cloud.  then after a half-hour i started feeling the old pain in my side.   

part of the problem has to be my keyed-up brain.  i miss wine.  i'm going to stop complaining about this and start taking a bath or something before attempting to go to bed.  there's no way my pillow puff bed could be that uncomfortable.  i'll say it.  i'm a little crazy right now.
