Sleepless Mom

A blog for moms

August 28, 2016

Soon To Be Mother

stacie

You’ve caught me on a good day… waking up with hemorrhoids!! I am currently 35 weeks pregnant with my first child and have had an easy pregnancy so far. Until now. I’ve been told not to brag about the lack of pregnancy symptoms (i.e. morning sickness and heartburn), because they will come and when they do, they will get you good! Let’s put it this way, my husband left his happy wife in front of the TV devouring a pizza and came home to a ragging lunatic complaining about my newly acquired veins in my rear and hating everything about our newly decorated house. These hormones are NO JOKE!

Along with these new beauties on my behind is the morning sickness and exhaustion I have been so proud to never have gone through. I have been told that every woman is different and has a different pregnancy, but no where have I read that you will also become a narcoleptic. I have mastered the art of puking when almost no one is watching and what to eat to keep the nausea to a mini Linda Blair.

I have heard from just about every expectant mother nearing the end of her pregnancy that they can’t wait to get it over with. Although I complain about the uncomfortable weight gain in the summer and the mass amount of spider veins, I have a feeling I will miss this beautiful time in my life. When I can truly enjoy the small baby kicks and dreaming of how my family dynamic will change forever.

About Jessica

Jessica Sleepless Mom Welcome sleepless moms! I haven’t had a full nights rest in over 2 years. Why, you ask? Because like you, juggling a toddler and a baby, working, and finding time for myself has left me sleepless, yet full of joy.

The inspiration for my blog came from tirelessly searching online for the answers new moms have, just to find out there is no right answer. My hope and vision is to create a community for moms to comment and share real life stories with one another when Google just isn’t cutting it. Whether you have specific questions or just want to comment and relate, this is your space to ask your fellow moms advice and know you’re not the only one that screws up from time to time.

I have assembled a well-rounded team that’s here to share their struggles and successes with you, as well as offer support in any way possible. This is an interactive site and we are here to cater to your mom needs. Please feel free to contact our team members with new topics you want us to tackle or even simple questions about motherhood. That’s what we are here for….
