16 Weeks Pregnant - can you sleep comfortably while pregnant?
Ahhh...sleep in pregnancy! Quite the topic! It can be more challenging than non-pregnancy sleep for so many reasons… Before my first was born, I spent probably the second half of the pregnancy trying ALL sorts of pillow combinations to get comfortable. I would get SUCH sore hips, and it seemed I spent all night rolling from one side to the other to get some relief. And when I say “rolling”, of course I mean, “picking up my belly, managing to manoeuvre onto the other side, and putting my belly down again” 😂

10 Weeks Pregnant - crazy dreams!
It’s crazy how pregnancy affects your sleep! I don’t remember it starting so early my other pregnancies, but maybe that’s just my brain blissfully shutting off those memories 😂 If I wake up during the night, I’m wide awake. And what seems like at least half the time I’m sleeping, my brain is going crazy with calculations. Why calculations? Nooooo idea. Maybe this baby is going to love maths? A couple of nights ago my brain was figuring out the right sizes for wedding cake tiers to serve all the guests (an actual thing I was working on during the day in preparation for making a couple of family wedding cakes). All while I was asleep. Last night my we took it up a notch and invented a new client who lives 2 hours and 20 minutes away (yes, I remember looking it up on Google Maps in my dream, and seeing the exact travel time!), and I was trying to figure out how on earth I was going to fit in a home visit of an afternoon with all the driving time factored in as well. For the record, I do not take clients that far away, it was just my brain having fun 😂
