Sleep... I miss you!

I have to admit that I have been blessed with my pregnancy, having experienced what I can only describe as the joys of pregnancy. I didn't end up with any nausea, no vomiting and the heartburn that I do experience has been very manageable. I keep hearing about the horrible leg cramps some of my fellow pregnant friends have experienced but so far so good, I haven't had to deal with that yet either.
So really I have nothing to complain about, but when you're used to being able to sleep through majority of the night (with exception to bathroom breaks) and then one night not being able to sleep at all it's a little annoying. It is so frustrating just tossing and turning and not being able to rest. Now it seems my nightly routine consists of position changes every two hours if not more and at least two bathroom breaks a night.
Exhausting!
I know all those mothers out there reading this are either laughing at me or think I'm being a whiner. Both acceptable responses. After reading some of those helpful pregnancy books I've learned that it's my body preparing me for the many sleepless night yet to come. But really I should be able to enjoy my last few months of freedom before my whole life alters forever. But like I said I've had an amazing pregnancy so if this my biggest complaint then thank goodness.
