DCs are sick. They keep waking me up. I'm premenstrual and peri menopausal. Everything aches. It's light now & the birds are fucking tweeting 🙈I just need some sleep!

It's bloody awful. Unless you think your kids are settled for a while now I'd get up and have strong coffee. You'll only feel worse if you're just drifting off and you get woken again. Family nap later?

I empathise - woke up with terrible acid reflux/heartburn and DH is snoring away next to me so no chance of getting back to sleep for me (spare room is currently occupied by visiting DB). I really don't do well on 4 1/2 hrs sleep.

Sleep deprivation is the worst.

I feel for you. I was awake for two hours last night. I was woken up by our smoke alarm beeping for a low battery. 😡
