Why are you awake ?

[cantseeforlooking]

I'm still awake because I got called out to work at 11.30pm and I've only just got in .

I had hoped for a quiet Christmas Day at least but hey ho , it's what I get paid for .

DH obviously kicked off and has accused me of having an affair . He knows my job role and this is not an unusual Occurrence so I'm pissed off with him and can't sleep even though I'm back home now .

I'm making plans to get out of here but my tongue is red raw from bitting it to keep the peace just a little bit longer until I can do what I need to .

Why are you still up ?

Bless u OP - hubby sounds like he’s being a dick! Aren’t they all … grumble grumble … I am still up cuz I’m 7 months pregnant and cant lie down for heartburn and vomiting. We are at in laws and there was nothing toddler friendly to eat all day except toast so my 2yr old DD is wide awake and starving hungry and eating dry corn flakes out of a bowl as I vomit my Christmas dinner in the bog. Oh and she’s just smashed a lava lamp!!!
Not like there’s four other adults in the house who could be helping - it’s all down to me as I am “up anyway”! Shithead partners are theme of the day at Christmas on mumsnet innit … wtf are our so called families playing at!!

I just don't feel sleepy - even after sleeping pill. Now have fancy for cheese and pickled red cabbage sandwich.

Because we crashed through far too much fizz yesterday. And after a huge lunch didn't bother with tea.
I've now woken up at 3am with a grumbly tummy and the beginning of a hangover but I need to drink more water as we have a 3 hour drive in the morning to see DS

What an absolute arse, to you op. I hope your plans come together for you.

I'm up as my 18 month old woke up and it's taken me an hour to get her back to sleep. Now I'm freezing and feeling quite hungry, am contemplating going downstairs for a mince pie.

Glad you’re planning your exit, what a twat.

I’m awake because my seven week old has decided this week that sleep at night is for the weak.
Well then, pal, I guess I’m weak so get tf to sleep and let me do the same 😂

I’m awake because 2 of the 4 kids have decided to constantly throw up since they went to bed! Not the best end to Christmas Day 🤢

I'm awake because I'm in the most uncomfortable bed ever, so bad that I've migrated to the floor which is marginally better.
Husband could literally sleep on a chickens lip so I'm pissed off even further.
Overstimulated child also in the same room has been loudly sleep talking for the past 2 hours, they're going to be a bundle of fun tomorrow.

Hi all, 👋
I have COVID and I'm sleeping really poorly. Too many naps in the day, but I can't help it. Been in my bedroom for a week 😩

Baby seems ill, husband tested positive for COVID two days ago (lateral flow). So I'm sat up with baby so he can get some sleep on me.

Getting up for mince pies and other edible treats sounds lovely. Hangover about to kick in, however, does not!

Good luck to OP for leaving your partner.

Well MN's classics is keeping me occupied whilst I the Royle family Queen of Sheba on in the background .

I am actually quite enjoying the peace , I'm a bit chilly and have suddenly gone really hungry so I'm going to trot off to the kitchen for snacks and hunt out some fluffy blankets .

I hope everyone settles shortly

Awake with painsomnia here from Fibromyalgia.

Luckily I have nowhere to be tomorrow.

I always wake up early. It's so annoying as I am off work, in a nice holiday cottage with DP and would love to just lie the fuck in. But no, here I am, 4am and wide awake.

Working night shift in a nursing home!
OP, what an arse your DH is being x

After rushing around like a blue arsed fly all day and drinking copious amounts of wine, I fell into bed at 10pm and went straight to sleep.

Just woken up, the birds are singing and it's raining outside and I doubt I'll be able to go back to sleep.

Woke up just as dh was going to bed! I went to bed at ten aswell. This is about my normal wake time though. I went to bed with everything tidied ready for today because I always do a massive boxing day buffet for about 12 oclock then everyone can eat it all day, I think they've all used every glass in the bloody house, worktop full of random darts flights and playing cards. It's really bugging me so I don't know whether to tidy up now and get the dishwasher going or try and get a bit more sleep, but don't want to wake the 3 year old. I have managed to hide to 2 massive Thor hammers they got yesterday though. No Amazon they are not made of foam and they bloody hurt. Worst present I brought ever

Tried sleeping downstairs but the dog is snoring loudly...here upstairs my husband is snoring even louder...haven't gone to sleep at all yet and no spare room to escape to....I am also sensitive to noise.....I am just about ready to fucking scream....MERRY FUCKING CHRISTMAS

My girls were up at 5am so we all crashed out early in my bed. Woke up a couple of hours ago & decided to clean the house. Now I'm having a Baileys & watching Anthony Bourdain. My ex will be here at 9am to take the kids to his for a week. After they leave I will return to the sofa and enjoy my quiet clean house. I'm sorry you're having a rough time. Wishing you strength & peace for your next chapter.

I'm on nights, it's been bloody busy with loads of domestics.
Happy Fucking Christmas 🍺 🍺 🍺 🍺 🥊

Normal occurrence here, waking up at stupid o'clock.

Stress over the fact we have to move and the day is getting closer but we still haven't found anywhere and stress that we are waiting for an appointment for my husband to see if he has cancer. AND HE WONT STOP SNORING!!!
The cat has also decided 5am is a great time to walk over my head.

I'm at work until 07:00 but it's enhanced pay and was too good to turn down!!!

Always get up at this time...body clock doesn't know it's Boxing day! My DS has to do his paper round so I'll probably help him today

I’m awake as I got pissed last night and woke up wide awake at 4.15 in pain as I didn’t take my usual painkillers. I debated staying in bed as I am definitely not a morning person but was hungry so I’m up a solid 5 hours before anyone else so I’m eating a leftovers sandwich, cup of tea and hot water bottle. to anyone who needs one

Second night shift, be glad when it's over.

Oh god now I'm hungry. Wish I didn't polish off all the m&s stuffing last night

I was up at 4.30am due to side effects of having to take steroids to try and help my COVID related deafness/hearing loss. I'm waking up every couple of hours needing to wee, it's like being pregnant again.
