anyone up and struggling to sleep?

[EducatingSweary]

so am i.

coukd do with a cuppa tea but dont want to disturb darling dogs beauty sleep.

Loving all the preg/ baby stories
Mine are 9 now, I only get hugs when they are ill
I'm awake because I had another nightmare. I think it's because I'm due on, but three nights with a different nightmare on each night in a row. Think I'll stay awake now

@Poppylizzyrose hahaha oh no! 😂 Already causing you trouble eh? I bet you can't wait to meet her 😊 but yeah I bet you're bored of pregnancy by now!! we just found out on Wednesday that we're having a boy. (I was secretly hoping girl, haha! Oh well)

@graysor do you ever hear DH snoozing happily away and just get the urge to give him a liiiiittle kick? 😆

I'm awake as been suicidal since Wednesday night and around 12 last night something snapped and sat on the ground sobbing and about to end it with loads of meds, thankfully something clicked and I rang for help, so am safe now

crisis team spoke to me for almost an hour and talked me down from there and I've put them away in other room now and am distracting on mn, they will be back in touch later on this morning and get someone out to assess today

I can’t wait! I was secretly hoping for a girl too but I didn’t tell anyone ironically all I do now is look at boys clothes and think how close boys are to their mummies. Deep down I just want her to be healthy and happy wouldn’t have really minded either way. That’s almost a key to having a girl I think. Not minding.

Comgradulations on your little boy

🙋‍♀️ I've pretty much seen every hour since midnight with 4 week old DS. I'm feeling very 😴 but can't sleep as he's currently sleeping on my chest as only lasting 10 minutes in the moses basket!

@smurfy2015 I have nothing to offer except to say that I'm so glad you are still with us and I hope you get the help you need ❤️

@Poppylizzyrose Thank you, congratulations to you too! I haven't bought
any clothes or anything yet, too many decisions! 😁

Thanks @rachieachie

Congrats to all the mummies with their young ones and the mummies to be, hope you get comfy and get some rest before LO arrives,

@Skylucy all the best for your little bundle, who will hopefully be here very soon

I'm up, baby due tomorrow and SPD is stopping me from getting much sleep. I got up and made tea and am back in bed with the dog on my legs. I also have to wee roughly 3000 times a night which isn't helping!

@vampirethriller TY and hope baby makes an appearance for you soon as well, pets are good for cuddles and sleeping on us, The cat pinned me down a while ago and she is a hefty weight (13lb) so I am trying to get thru till next phone call after 9am

I'm up! Love being up early though even though I had a late night eating pizza and chatting to husband who is snoring away.

@HRTpatch did you get anything nice for xmas presents bought?

smurfy.

Oh man my emoticons still aren't working. Was supposed to be flowers.

Bless you smurfy - So pleased you managed to call the crisis team and that you are seeing them today.

Keep going and keep posting on here for any support you need because people on here have got your back!!

Take care of yourself my lovely xx

Thank you all, Im OK,

Moments of madness and thankful for some clarity in the middle of all plus the cat crawled up on my lap as I sat sobbing and started wailing at me, she has never done that before, I think I scared her.

Calvary/help will be coming later, they did offer to get me to a&e but I wouldn't be assessed till at least 9am and as calmed down and put them in the other room, I'm safer for now.

@smurfy2015 I'll be thinking of you, time will pass! ❤️

You've got a good cat there smurfy!

DD still vomiting, DH still asleep. Poor DD and I have had a night of it 

Everyone's up here now 🙂

Smurfy Stay safe, your cat sounds adorable.

@Smurfy2015 cat was guarding you, best wishes for today

Think I woke up about 15 minutes ago, took a swig of leftover tea with fresh tumeric, ginger and lemon then hissed and probably had steam coming out of my ears - it must be dragonfire ginger. I'll go like a rocket today.

Then checked to see if the arms thread had been pulled!

Hi to all that are awake too early, especially on a weekend.

smurfy2015, I’m so glad you’re getting help and just keep thinking that this will pass. 💐

OP, are their no friends that your child can stay with? What about grandparents?

I’ve been awake on and off, with a sore hand but have been putting of taking pain relief because I need to stretch them out. Dog bit a week ago and an operation on Tues to clean it. Hurts like blazes today. I think I overdid it yesterday, but I work for myself and have an adult child with complex needs. Feel sick now. 🤢

My carers came in at 7 and they had to ring their manager who told them to ring 999 so just seen the a&e dr who is getting crisis to see me here and formulate a plan sooner than later, I don't want to go into hospital but am very willing to engage with crisis / home treatment team

Hcat to the rescue, will have to get her a cape

Oh she IS adorable! I knew she would be
