Get your sleep now!

YEAH RIGHT!! Everyone keeps telling me, "get your sleep now". With a huge, heavy stomach that's highly uncomfy, REALLY? I wake up probably at least 6 times everynight to use the restroom and change sides (I can't just sleep on one side through the entire night). After changing sides (which kind of hurts), it takes about 5-10 minutes to get situated and comfortable again! I don't care if I don't get any sleep when Deegan is born...at least I will have comfy sleep!! Even if it's only for an hour...it will so be worth it!! Darrell bought me the BOPPY pillow when I was about 4-5 months and that thing works WONDERS!! I'm sure you could pull it off with regular pillows...but it is amazing and actually helps me to get some rest!

So I've done ALOT of research on postpartum stuff to help me get back into shape. The BELLY BANDIT...after doing some research, I purchased it on ebay! It's a waist band used by celebrities that you wear after your pregnancy, helps your waist slim down (NOT tone, but slim)! I'm totally excited about this...it has REALLY good reviews! It goes for $50-$60, but I got it for $35 on ebay...SCORE! The SHRINKX...I've done research on this as well...research queen haha! The shrinkx has really good reviews as well...it's a band for your hips that helps your hips go back to pre-pregnancy size faster. I bought this on diapers.com because I had a $10 coupon so it was the cheapest for me! I'm using these right away (if I don't have a c-section) for the first 6 weeks, when you're not supposed to do strenuous exercise, and then stop using them when I start working out hardcore! I'm going to keep blogging after my pregnancy to let you know how it goes!! :)
