sleep

Sleep seems to be an obsession of mine ever since I had Joanna. Lack of sleep is seriously debilitating, and only 5 1/2 hours sleep on Saturday night reminded me of that. However that was in a good cause, as we were out having fun at a wedding.
One of the nuisances of being pregnant at the night time toilet trips. Thankfully it's not too bad at the moment for me, however spare a thought for poor TinyBaby. Apparently the waking and sleeping cycle for a fetus is 20 mins. Which coincides with the amount of time it takes for them to fill their bladder. The sonographer theorises that this isn't coincidence, and that foetus' wake to empty their bladder. Every 20 minutes. Wow! I'm not 100% convinced by her argument, as babies fill their nappies at night, but it's an interesting theory. And an awful lot of waking up for TinyBaby to do. And yes, you can see a baby empty their bladder using ultrasound, it was Joanna we saw do that!
