I've been suffering from awful stomach pains for two hours, on and off the toilet, now going to run a hot bath (at 1:30am!) to try and soothe it. Keep me company and stop me from going insane - I'm in so much pain!

What are you doing? Are you okay? What's keeping you up? :-)

popskipen we are currently downstairs watching his favourite tv program - I’m struggling to stay awake and he is full of beans!

I’ve got mastitis & feel awful. I’ve fed DS & hoping the awful lumps will go down soon. Temp of 38.9 yesterday so I was in bed until 4pm! Sad
Just took some paracetamol so fingers crossed that kicks in for the headache soon.

@Xmasgetaway

I finished a book that was very exciting and disturbing and now I know I’ll have nightmares if I sleep straight away!
Ooh, intrigued…what was it?

Hello people. I am suffering from insomnia - have been on and off for 12-18 months, thought it was hormonal (perimenopause), started HRT 2 weeks ago and hoped that would knock it on the head.

I’ve now been awake for, I think, THREE HOURS which is the worst night I think I’ve ever had. I’m going to be the walking dead in the morning 😫

JuneFromBethesda · 10/01/2022 03:46

Sorry for those of you suffering, whether from grief, anxiety, illness or restless children … may we all have peaceful dreams soon …

I accidentally slept till about 2 in the afternoon

needmoreshinys · 10/01/2022 04:20

Insomnia coupled by the fact DS is sick, so I am keeping an eye on him

StopStartStop · 10/01/2022 04:35

Had five lovely hours of sleep - unusual for me - nipped to the loo, grabbed my phone to get the time, got involved in a thread and here I am. Warm, cosy, feeling great. I'll be tired out by lunchtime.

ShrimpingViolet · 10/01/2022 04:37

Sorry for all those ill or worrying about various things. I'm 32 weeks pregnant with DC2 and enjoying third trimester insomnia even less this time around.

PigeonPigPie · 10/01/2022 04:44

Third trimester insomnia. Have given in and am watching Sort Your Life Out in the nursery. Preparing for the night feeds??

Happymum12345 · 10/01/2022 04:44

I’ve woken up with a dread of going to work tomorrow. I hope to leave soon.

Someone needs to let my body know I've had plenty of night waking prep already the last three years thanks to DD

Squiff70 · 10/01/2022 04:50

Severe stress due to complications with my pregnancy. DP snoozing away next to me and our 2 year old flat out in her cot. Usually awake by 2.30am but managed to sleep until 4 this morning. Still so tired...

StarCourt · 10/01/2022 04:51

I'm moving house today. Couldn't sleep. Back up and sorting/repacking things that have been packed

Carrotca · 10/01/2022 05:11

My 9 month old baby thinks it's playtime HmmGrin

StinkyBumFartyBaby · 10/01/2022 05:15

The dog shat on the landing. The smell woke me up 🤮

piney07 · 10/01/2022 05:17

I was woken by a helicopter circling overhead and it is now back 30 mins later?! I looked out the window and it doesn’t have a search light, not sure why it would be circling? (If someone has the answer please share!). Now I am awake I have noticed I have a sore throat so now thinking I have omicron.

UniversalAunt · 10/01/2022 05:33

@badlydrawnbear my condolences for your loss.

UniversalAunt · 10/01/2022 05:37

Sodding wobbly tooth again!

I had the smart idea that I might read the printed leaflet that came with the Oli of Clove, someone missed it in my rush to open the bottle.

Turns out that OoC should only be applied directly to the tooth, not to the gum as that may cause tissue damage. Ooops!

So a more careful series of applications today. Just been woken by a grumbling. Certainly better than yesterday. Roll on the dentist appt.

badlydrawnbear · 10/01/2022 07:04

Went to bed at nearly 2am, was awake for longer because DC2, who now sleeps in my bed, was shouting and talking nonsense in her sleep.

AllThingsServeTheBeam · 10/01/2022 07:40

Ahh I woke at 3am and didn't see this thread! I was and still am awake because I am day 9 post op from having my knee replaced. Worst pain and time of my life these last 9 days have been!

RedHot22 · 10/01/2022 08:07

After a fretful night, DH and I have cuddled and talked. We’re feeling rough but ok and ready to face the difficult week ahead.
