What's up

Good and not so good but no bad things happening here, alhamdullilah!
Starting with not-so-good. Husband’s been feeling unwell for the past couple of weeks. He’s going to have a general check-up done, inshallah there’s nothing serious. He’s been working far too much and not taking enough care of himself – not enough sleep, no sport, hardly any time off. It breaks my heart to see him working so hard and not being able to do much to help.
Good stuff: just when I thought I can’t take anymore, was so exhausted, had a tension headache bordering on migraine and was in no state to drive, Saboodlette decided to sleep through the night. Yes, that’s right, 7 hours straight, 22.30 – 5.30, then ate and slept another 3 hours. The night after was even better – 22.00 – 6.00, feed and 3 more hours. Today is the third night and Husband’s travelling so we’ll see. Inshallah it will continue. Funnily enough (NOT) my body was so set on waking and feeding that the first night I woke up at 3.22 and couldn’t fall asleep again for 1,5 hours. Second night was better, though. It’s easy to get used to good things. Getting almost 7 hours of uninterrupted sleep really makes a difference. My brain actually doesn’t feel cloudy for the first time since pregnancy. If I get more nights like the last one I might even manage to write a post about something else than baby babble. Unfortunately, the good ideas come in bed, right before I fall asleep and by the morning they’re gone. All the wit and brilliance wasted, haha.
