I have always been a great sleeper. I never have to wake up to go to the bathroom and I tend to sleep very deep. I have been this way from the beginning (or so my mom tells me). Well pregnancy has changed that. I hear it is preparing me for when she actually gets here. I hate not feeling well rested. It scares me a lot to go on little sleep because frankly for my sanity and everyone else's, I need sleep.
So from now on everynight I am praying our daughter has good sleep patterns like me and AE. I hope I get a sleeper because I know I will be a better mom.
Is it weird to pray about something like this? Is it sad that I am more nervous about her not sleeping than labor?.......

Perfectly normal. You'll forget about the labor as soon as you hold her for the first time. The non-sleeping thing lasts longer and for those of us who need sleep, it's harder to deal with. I hope she's a sleeper too, for your sake. Read some books on sleeping babies and put together your own little routine with her and stick with it. I was lucky with Amelia, I'm hoping this little boy is just like her.
Love your maternity pictures by the way. You look so cute.
No not weird, I pray every night that Max will sleep all the way through :)
Just be prepared for the first little while they need to eat every two hours...I'm sure you know this but I NEED my sleep as well. So plan on lots of naps during the day. Annabelle and Rebecca are both good sleepers and I think your friend is right just keep a good routine and know you can always nap when she naps. It gets tricker after your first with sleep but you'll be fine! Plenty of us sleepers do it!
