Just fed DS and changed his nappy and now he’s sleeping - I would say peacefully but it’s more of a grunty, drunken piglet type newborn sleep Grin - and typically I am now wide awake.

Anyone else up!
I’ve been reading about the coronavirus, bad idea at this time in the morning, freaked myself out. So am now drinking tea and eating dark chocolate and browsing make up as I’m planning to sort all mine out soon.

Also thinking about what to buy for the next online shop and everything I have to do tomorrow / DS has his jabs in the morning and I’m dreading both going to the GP and him getting a bit poorly afterwards.

How’s everyone else ?

@LatteLover12 congratulations! Tea and chocolate is what gets me through :)
I was really bad for being up in the night going to the loo when I was pregnant, now that seems to have completely stopped. Unfortunately so has the being warm all the time which I quite enjoyed as a naturally cold person, now I’m back to being freezing all the time!

Urgh. Hi all. DC and I are ill, and I've been awake since they both came trotting in around 2 and clambered into bed. They're snoring Smile but I have the sinusitis from hell and feel like my face is... in a fiery vice of ice? Lined with hedgehog hide? Something like that, and can't go back to sleep. Normally not a worrier, a few little niggles are occupying my mind. Grr. I hope everyone has a restful day once it gets going properly...

Shiney

You have some friends who are nuts.

I had flu at the time swine flu was around, I was tested and it wasn't but as I had 3 part time teaching jobs it was probably best I was isolated. One of the colleges I taught had did have a number of students ill with swine flu so I probably dodged a bullet.

Interested in this thread?

I’m up. I’d love a cup of tea but don’t have any teabags. Or energy to make it. I was just imagining one of those Klix machines by the bed would be nice.

@AdultHumanFemale your poor thing! Have you got any menthol crystals? You can get them same
Day delivery on prime and use them in the shower, they are the only thing that works for me
With sinus pain plus a breathe right snoring strip afterwards as it keeps the nasal passages open. Hope you feel better soon!

@sashh you’re such a good late night/early morning thread hostess 😁

In severe pain with joint problems, I was awoken at midnight and had to face a lot of washing up left in the kitchen. I wasn’t impressed since I made dinner too. Later this morning my house may be very quiet.... I am extremely unimpressed.

Piglet snoring sounds so very cute, but I’m sure having to listen to it is quite different!

AdultHumanFemale · 18/02/2020 05:05

Oh dear, Dennis, I think the mention of space cake and being so bloody tired has addled my brain; meth crystals, you say? Exactly what I would expect a mum on the night shift to recommend... Wink
Thanks for the tip, I am open to trying anything!

LatteLover12 · 18/02/2020 05:06

Thanks @Dennisreynoldsduster Smile

DP has just started singing/howling in his sleep WIBU to record him?! 😂

sashh · 18/02/2020 05:06

@Dennisreynoldsduster

I do try.

Hi all I'm awake, a bit worried about something, was playing game on partners phone, when a girl popped up on his messanger he instantly got funny about her messaging, it's his ex but apparently still get on, she then trys ringing on messanger he wouldn't answer it, and repeatedly keeps being worried who's calling and pretends to go toilet but takes his phone, should I be worried or am I being to paranoid, it's racking my brains

Dennisreynoldsduster · 18/02/2020 05:18

@LatteLover12 absolutely not, record record record! When you’re up at these hours you have to get your entertainment where you can 😂

@AdultHumanFemale 😂 meth crystals would probably work also, I imagine, to distract you at the very least haha

@PulyaSochsup that’s rubbish on many levels. Sorry to hear you’re in pain and hope you get some rest. I think you should refuse to do the washing up in protest! Piglet snoring is cute but it’s the grunting and straining noises that are less so!😂

@Aimsybabe that does sound a bit worrying :( I wouldn’t be happy with that. Can you talk to him about it properly and tell him how you feel/your concerns? Has he got form for messing around that has made you not trust him? Might be worth starting your own thread in relationships I’m sure you will get lots of advice

Hes very shady just recently, said he didn't have messanger, which of course was a blatent lie as I have just found out, now the messages have stopped all of a sudden

crazycatlady7 · 18/02/2020 05:54

@Dennisreynoldsduster the first Jabs just made my DS sleep... he was a little grumpy but slept and woke up fine.

I got about an hour co sleeping and he woke screaming again. I'm hoping he sleeps better tonight as I'm driving 2hrs to see my friend and not sure I will be able to if I have a third night like tonight.
