Best of luck and try to chill out when you can x
Ive got 19 days left and not had good nights sleep for last month. I can fall asleep straight away but wide awakebetween 1 and 3 am each day. Ive finished work so been getting up so not to disturb oh then when he leaves for work at 7am i go back to bed for a nap and also try napping in afternoon.
I'm the same as you, my lo is so active still despite him having hardly any room left, plus I am up for a pee at least three times a night and then I can't get comfy or I get cramp! I think part of it is also that our minds are on overload thinking of things we want to get done and imagining what it is going to be like with a lo.
If you have loads of stuff to do (you mentioned assignments) what I used to find useful was to write down a 'to do ' list and if necessary keep it by your bed so you have a way to release all these thoughts that are buzzing around!
I usually get up when my oh goes to work with the intention of having a nap at some point during the day but it never happens as there are always jobs to do - or I am on here!!
