"No Sleep Till Brooklyn....."

So I keep hearing people tell me good luck and get as much sleep now as you can because once the baby is here you will never sleep again! Now, I know well enough that this is an over exaggeration. I know there will be sleepless nights and cat naps during the day will be a hot commodity. But I was not prepared to not be sleeping now! This is going on 3 nights now where I cant get comfortable left side, right side, etc. I even tried belly and back just to see if I could last night to no avail. 4 pillows later and still no sleep, counting sheep was not even an option. Any advice on how to get some serious Zzzzzzz's now??? I walked around the exterior of the mall across the street from our house last night to get some exercise and to relax me to get me ready for bed. I even went to bed at 9pm (by the way, that's my new curfew for bed per the Daddy). Still nothing. How is it that something so small could cause so many complications? I laugh when I think of my mother-in-law saying she kept the receipt for Dan when he was born. That way she could return him at any point in time if "she wasn't fully satisfied". Ha, Ha Not that I would, but the offer is enticing. I guess no sleep for the weary is in order.
