I JUST CANNOT SLEEP

Me either. I got scammed by a Caravan owner renting me an unfit caravan and paypal just emailed to say they're siding with them! I'm devastated. £350 :'(

LemonTreeLemon · 21/07/2019 04:02

Yes I'm awake. I can't sleep either. I've been awake since 2.30.

I've been like this the last few weeks. I thought it was end of term stress but end of term was Friday so why am I still awake?

😩😩

littleyellowwellies · 21/07/2019 04:03

I wake at 4am everyday but don't know why :(

LemonTreeLemon · 21/07/2019 04:03

Sorry to hear that @HappyLoneParentDay

That sounds really shit.

littleyellowwellies · 21/07/2019 04:04

@HappyLoneParentDay can you appeal PayPal's decision?

Are you in the caravan now?

FuzzyPixel · 21/07/2019 04:05

I'm awake too. I'm 40+2 weeks pregnant with my first, and have been awake for three hours or so each night since about 39 weeks.

Abney123 · 21/07/2019 04:07

Me either - way too much on my mind. Think my relationship is ending so laid here waiting for morning to ask him to just be honest and tell me. My head being pulled about 

Abney123 · 21/07/2019 04:09

@HappyLoneParentDay - horrible thing to happen. So sorry. PayPal might allow an appeal?

Everyone is worrying about something.

Anxiety and worry is zapping us ALL from sleep.

I'm getting more and more worked up!

I hope everyone's unresolved issues get sorted. I try and tell myself that no amount of worrying will change the situation or outcome Blush

I just woke up from a very vivid nightmare. If I go straight back to sleep I'll just end up back in the middle of it because I'm thinking about it. need to refocus and 'reset' before I try going back to sleep, I really don't want to find out how it ended Sad

chocolatebuttonsandcheese · 21/07/2019 04:11

Wide awake and feel like I've got the flu! My chest is sooo tight I can barely roll over but also have a one year old snuggles up to mv!

@HappyLoneParentDay PayPal May allow an appeal?

Christ people are just immoral. Karma will bite their arse

@chocolatebuttonsandcheese there is something going around, I had those symptoms and now left with a horrible cold :(

But having a 1 year old snuggled up is heaven. My DS is 5 .... he still snuggles with me but time just goes so quick Sad

@Deucebumps have a drink of water and see if that can throw your mind off course

Was on the “awake” thread last night and on it again now. Exhausted and no trouble ever getting to sleep, but PING at 4am for last fortnight.

Oh, and I’m five weeks pregnant today after three ivf miscarriages, which is absolutely why 😅 And today is my birthday!

Nogodsnomasters · 21/07/2019 04:25

I'm up. My ds4 fell out of bed at 3.30, cue crying yet still asleep and floppy so needed to soothe and put back. Then I needed a drink, then a wee, then did a check on the dog who was neutered 2 days ago to make sure her cones still on.

I'd love to go into the garden for a cigarette but my drunk dh is crashed on the sofa after an evening of beers with his brother and so I don't want to accidently wake the drunk tit.

@LividLaughLove oh and Happy Birthday

Hi all, I'm just awake because I wake up early, I'll stick a pot of coffee on for us, and maybe warm some milk for those able to get back to sleep.

Brenna24 · 21/07/2019 04:30

Congratulations @LividLaughLove. I hope that this is your sticky one. I am awake because pregnancy number 4 after 3 miscarriages (now 18 months old) is absolutely exhausted after a very fun day and is very restless and needing frequent feeds and cuddles to stay asleep.

I hope that you can appeal @HappyLoneParentDay.

I hope that you get through this @Abney123.

Sabich · 21/07/2019 04:36

Just woke up. @sashh a milky coffee would be gorgeous!

Thanks @sashh that's made me feel all wanted Grin

LividLaughLove · 21/07/2019 04:39

Thanks @soberken! And @brenna24, thank you for your story too. I know logically that this pregnancy is different and has statistically more chance of making it than not, but it’s not just at 4am that these things seem unutterably terrifying!

(Also, all the progesterone. I’ve never been able to stay asleep on progesterone!)

MrsSiba · 21/07/2019 04:50

Awake here too. Fell asleep putting baby to bed then woke up at 2.30 so went to let the cat in and ended up doing dishes. Also worrying about relationship like @ Abbey123, hope you get things sorted . Things feel more final after this last row.

Congrats to those in the third trimester. Sleep can be really hard but believe everyone when they say try to get as much rest as you can 😄

OK coffee, late, Baily's latte macchiato all being poured into my keyboard.
