I’ve had a grand total of sixty minutes sleep and I’m now wide awake. Anyone else still up? No doubt I’ll be starting to fall asleep as the dc wake up.

So sorry to hear that Scunner, I hope it’s not too acrimonious, even a mutually agreeable parting is difficult enough emotionally.

I’ve had a few messages from friends that they’re there if I want to talk, including a couple of other ladies who’ve also been through it but I just don’t feel like saying the words out loud yet. I went through the ivf on my own, I was going through the pregnancy on my own, I would have given birth on my own (well, apart from the medical professionals!) so it feels right this way. I’m quite pragmatic by nature, and I find it easier to work through all my r et motions by myself. If I try and talk about it with a friend or family member I’ll be constantly worrying about their feelings too

@memberofthewedding that’s a great reason to be awake! It’s clever of you to have found a way to work with your sleep patterns

I'm here, no sleep at all tonight yet. Had az in vaccine today and now hot and cold, shivering, headache and achy. Can't have anymore paracetamol for a while either.

You'll probably feel much better tomorrow.

Sunbird, I'm so sorry.

TopBitchoftheWitches · 30/03/2021 01:58

I hope so, still very pleased I had it though. This will pass.

Hello
Wide awake

I’ve just discovered I got an email yesterday about a course I’m apparently enrolled on for work that starts on 12 Apr. First I’ve heard of it, but also, I did this course 3 years ago and the one that follows it last year!

Ok thanks. I'm now awake and worrying about it again, Imposter syndrome combined with anxiety at its worst. Thank you for asking,

Sunbird24 · 30/03/2021 02:13

@en0la both of those things suck. I’m sure you’re much better at it than you give yourself credit for. You clearly care a lot about it.

If I can’t get a decent sleep tonight I think I’m going to have to call in sick tomorrow. How is it possible to feel so tired yet not be able to sleep?
