One night, when I was pregnant with my son, I was sleeping peacefully, for the first time in weeks.
I’m usually a hard sleeper, and only loud, shrill sounds can wake me.
However, that night, something that sounded like feet shuffling stirred me from my sleep.
It didn’t faze me at first, because I wasn’t the only one who often had trouble sleeping.
Then, the footstep sound stopped right at my bedroom door.
I was lying halfway on my stomach (not completely, because of the baby belly), and I tried to turn my head to see who was standing there.
