Why are you awake?

I woke up in pain
I have numerous chronic pain conditions and my pain killers aren't really helping at the minute, plus I have a herniated disc.
So I've been wandering the house with my night time catheter (feel free to AS me to get the story on the catheter, I've made recent posts about it) as it's my night time bag it doesn't strap to my leg so I've been carrying a bag I'd piss around as I find something to distract myself from the pain I'm in.
I'm now watching old episodes of come dine with me on Netflix, after buying the DCs new uniform (except the branded stuff) and more cat litter. And a few bits to make a hamper up for my mum (again, feel free to AS and see what my mum means to me and has done for me recently)
So what's keeping you awake? Come tell me your reasons so that I don't feel quite so alone at 4am.

Oh no! Toothache is worse than labour. Have you tried orajel? I swear by the stuff for toothache.
Sorry about your toddler. I would say it gets better but my 8 year old DD still climbs.into bed with me if she has a nightmare so I think you've a few more years of sleep thieving yet.

I agree nothing worse than tooth ache! Oragel has absolutely saved me with this one! Did go to the dentist today so all sorted now.
I love it, I don't mind her being in with me really, it's all part and parcel!
Let's hope tonight brings a better night's sleep! 🤞
