Musical beds in my house tonight so I'm in DCs bed contemplating the very nice dream I had before I was rudely awakened that Cillian Murphy started work in my office Blush

What has you all up at this ungodly hour?

34 weeks pregnant, baby kicking.
Sleep with nearly 2 year old, who decides to lay horizontally across the pillows thereby wedging me into the bedside!

I'm worrying about starting my new job on Monday

21mo has been feeding for an hour. I hate that I'm still feeding her and want to quit but can't bear the screaming if I do that

Had a sudden freak out about the floppy toddler lying next to me. He was just in a very deep sleep but I accidentally woke him up with my small (large) panic.

Stress. Someone has backed out of something that I was relying on them to do - leaves me in a bit of a fix.

My 12 week old is hungry!
But he has slept through since 10pm so I feel like I've won the lottery in the sleep stakes!

Not asleep yet. East coast USA. Just gone to bed. First cool night since May, so curled up under the duvet and contemplating getting up to switch the fan off.

Teething toddler!

taytosandwich · 05/10/2019 04:28

@TinyMystery that sounds familiar! I've been panicking about my toddlers deep sleeps at various intervals since he was born Blush

I've have a bout of chronic insomnia for about 6 weeks. Mainly work related stress. I'm exhausted and a bit tearful. But at least I get some extra time to mumsnet.

100PercentThatBitch · 05/10/2019 04:30

Toothache so bad I got up to swig neat alcohol, and I'm now wide awake

Apolloanddaphne · 05/10/2019 04:31

I went out with DH for a curry and a few wines last night. Woken up boiling hot as my body tries to process all the food. Hopefully I will get back to sleep soon.

Aomame83 · 05/10/2019 04:37

Breastfeeding my 6 week old. Shattered!

stayingaliveisawayoflife · 05/10/2019 04:39

I've got a stinker of a cold so I woke up to unbung my nose! Hopefully going back to bed soon. I may stay there all day!

Peridot1 · 05/10/2019 04:42

Coughing. Coughing. Coughing.

Been coughing for a week. Am soooo over it.

I sound like I smoke 60 a day. Chest is crackly.

Felt better today than I have for a few days. Now just want the cough to fuck off.

Benylin is my best friend atm.

6 month old feeding every 3 hours due to bloody growth spurt.

5 year old wet the bed at 4am (first time in over a year), she was very upset and distraught.

OH is in the deepest sleep ever. Contemplating elbowing him.

Alarm due to go off in two hours as we are going legoland for DD's 5th bday. I plan on sleeping in the car!!!

Lima45 · 05/10/2019 04:48

I'm at work. Don't finish til 6. Wish I was in bed!

FenellaMaxwell · 05/10/2019 04:49

Leaking nappy. After I had to strip and change the bed, DS (2yo) won’t go back to bloody sleep.

MotherWilliam · 05/10/2019 04:51

Just too tired to sleep. And when I think of all those years when the DC were small, what I wouldn't have given........

zeddybrek · 05/10/2019 04:51

Fell asleep with the kids at 715pm and now wide awake and can't do anything or I'll wake them up.

EyeDrops · 05/10/2019 04:54

Baby (8 months) is awake and really fighting going back to sleep!

allthegoodusernameshavegone · 05/10/2019 04:56

I had an op on Wednesday, thought I could stop taking the pain killers by now, I was so so wrong.

Ebonyandivory2 · 05/10/2019 04:57

Thought it was a good idea to down espresso martinis earlier

tangled2 · 05/10/2019 04:57

My 8 month old is also fighting going back to sleep
