Yes I’m awake too.
I’ve got Covid and am feeling a bit yuk.

I've just taken a test but it's negative. Feeling so ill though! Sore throat, hacking cough, lungs on fire, headache and raging temperature 😥

Me! Been awake most of the night with a teething 10 month old 😭

megosaurusrex · 09/10/2022 05:03

Yep! DS's dummy fell out at about 4am. He has eventually gone back to sleep, unlike me!

ellesbellesxxx · 09/10/2022 05:05

Woke up at 4:26 and can’t get back to sleep 😭
👋🏻

Yes....I am at work though.

Ilovetocrochet · 09/10/2022 05:08

Turned light out at 10.55, went straight to sleep, woke up at 1.45 and am still awake! I’ve tried reading, listening to a boring podcast, watching silly film clips on FB and have now resorted to checking MN!

Luckily I’ve got nothing planned for tomorrow other than some gardening if dry so hopefully I will catch up then!

Urgh it's past 5am now , is it just me or when it gets to this time of day, just seeing the time stops you from getting to sleep again

Awake most of the night here....twins being the culprit. Both in the bed with me now and dad gone to spare room. This is how it goes most nights for me. As tired as I am 11 months in, wouldn't change it for the world ( would love a solid night sleep though sometime).

Bridetobe9 · 09/10/2022 05:13

Yep I’m awake as full of cold. Just let the cat out as could hear him crashing about downstairs. Could fall asleep again but I expect he’ll come in soon and wake me up! Going to be a long day

Hi all.. been awake since 3. So tired but can't drop back off. Have got a Siamese kitty on my head which is lovely though! 😻

BagpussBagpussOldFatFurryCatpuss · 09/10/2022 05:49

Awake since 2am.
Frustratingly I know I will fall asleep half an hour before I need to get up. The alarm will wake me up and I’ll struggle to stay awake…
Happens every night/morning!

DD and I been in A&E since 10:30, she's finally been seen, after 6 hours and been put on a drip whilst we wait for blood test results.
Severe stomach and back pain with vomitting.
Waiting for the doctor to come back with next steps.
I just hope it's not gallstones as that's where the pain seems to be.

I slept well but woke at 5.45am. I feel angry at myself if I wake before 6 😂

tapdancingmum · 09/10/2022 08:57

Went back to bed just after 5 and have just woken up.

Hope everyone who didn't get back to sleep has a good day x

BagpussBagpussOldFatFurryCatpuss · 09/10/2022 09:10

Sure enough I fell asleep again for a couple of hours… just as DH was getting up!
I just wish I could sleep through at night.

Sh05 · 09/10/2022 12:22

She's been seen by doctor who is a little concerned about test results so we are waiting for the surgical team to check her

Sh05 · 09/10/2022 12:23

Total waiting time for majors is just over 25 hours!
