It's the middle of the night. Why are you awake?

I'm at work.

Just can't sleep.

Doyoumind · 01/12/2018 02:55

I was asleep. Woke up with lots on my mind and I can't get back to sleep.

My 5 month old keeps getting up 😩

Mediumred · 01/12/2018 02:55

Just got back from a night shift (well a 1am finish) and having a glass of wine. Must go to bed soon! What do you do naked? Haha, that’s a question to the OP, not a ‘what do you do naked?’ question which is definitely for another thread!

palindromeam · 01/12/2018 02:55

Clandestine - that was a really kind thing. Did you sort them out?

MaidenMotherCrone · 01/12/2018 02:56

Coughing so gave up with trying to sleep.

palindromeam · 01/12/2018 02:56

Medium red- does it take you awhile to wind down when you get in?

spoon19996 · 01/12/2018 02:57

@Bananabus I lie down to feed, I don't always fully sleep but it's somewhat sleeping and doesn't wake me as much, my heath visitor told me it's safe too. I think it's a life saver

palindromeam They’re home, she’s livid and he’s passed out on the kitchen floor. But no arrests, which is something to be grateful for, I suppose.

Like you, I now can’t sleep!

SparklingSaskia · 01/12/2018 02:59

Snoring husband, moved to the guest bedroom. Then woke up from heartburn (heavy late meal last night). I’m going to try tp sleep again now.

HappyEverIftar · 01/12/2018 02:59

bella1426 · 01/12/2018 03:02

Mediumred · 01/12/2018 03:03

I’m v bad, i’ve Just increased my number of late finishes, and i’m Drinking too much/sleeping v badly. Sometimes i’m Better than others but Friday is definitely an excuse to have a little party, haha, just a party for one though, everyone else has had their evening out.

Is something worrying you and keeping you awake palindrome?

Topseyt · 01/12/2018 03:04

Peri-menopausal. Sleep patterns are up the spout so I sometimes end up awake at odd times.

KeepSmiling83 · 01/12/2018 03:06

DD2 has chicken pox and can't sleep because of the itching! We are currently watching Paddington Bear 2 in the hope it may distract her and she falls asleep!

IndigoSpritz · 01/12/2018 03:07

I got home (early) from my night shift about half an hour ago. Just having a small nightcap and I'll turn in.
