Why are you awake at this time?

[Psychoticbreak]

I spent all day exhausted and dying for bed, come upstairs and found a new lease of life. I have the dog beside me, laptop here, netflix on, glass of wine on the go and I have to be up at 7.30 tomorrow.

You could be having an allergic reaction to the drop. Have you told anyone about the itching. It could become very serious very quickly.

I hope you feel better soon.

Breastfeeding!

I'm on nights!

I’m at my most wide awake at about 2am as a matter of course and usually get to sleep about 2.45-3, but sometimes I stay awake all night (not by choice). I get up at 7.30am. I get through the day but that’s all I do. I could sleep like a baby at about 4pm but I’m at work then. I’ve been like this for a few years and it’s really aged me. No solution.

@mondaytosunday my son had two Oxford interviews today one of which was quite stressful as he was presented with questions about Sorites paradox (no me neither) which threw him a bit. I’ve read up about it now and even that hasn’t sent me to sleep! good luck to your DD.

Then I'm glad you're awake 🤣

Having cuddles with my 5 day old baby who is still very mixed up with days and nights. Hoping he catches on soon because I’m exhausted!

Pains in my legs. It’s an ongoing problem for me. The doctor says do exercises and take painkillers. Nothing helps.

Blocked nose, sore throat, headache. I need to get up and take a paracetamol. Plus we found out today at work that a colleague has been diagnosed with cancer. She’s only 33 and has a baby less than a year old, and she’s already been in hospital for months. It’s so sad and crap. My boss has to tell everyone tomorrow so that’s going to be hard.

Woke up needing to pee. Stupidly picked up my phone and now here I am mumsnetting instead of sleeping!

Exhausted but can’t stop bloody coughing.

I’m bored with myself now. It’s Day 14 of this nonsense.

Poorly child, hes snoozing, i haven't been able to get any sleep since he woke me at 11.50 - i dropped off at 11.30 🤣🫣

I’m on anastrozole, it totally f*^ks up sleep I woke up at 3 thinking it was at least 7am. Feels like I’ve had a good nights sleep but I’ll probably get another hour at the most before I have to get up for work.
I only work two days a week and on non work days I can granny nap.
I can go for weeks with no sleep disturbance but currently have had nearly a month of chronic insomnia.
Only three more years of taking the drug. Yay!!

Partner snoring, mind whirring thinking about things I've got to do. Decided to give up trying to sleep and get up.

Just basked partner to take baby in other room so I can get some sleep but now terrified they'll unsafely cosleep, so can't sleep anyway.

Breastfeeding my 11 month old. Trying to keep my eyes open 🥱

I've been awake with my 13 month old for 2hrs and counting. I'm sitting in a chair, he's wide awake in his cot, just staring at me and refusing to sleep... perfectly content until I try to leave the room to go back to bed. Alarm set for 6:30!

I'm almost 32 weeks pregnant and waking up around this time seems to be my new habit 😭 luckily I'm off work for a week so don't have to get up in the morning

I have a liver condition called PBC. One of the side effects is interrupted sleep. Me n the dog have been downstairs and had a snack of muesli . Back in the spare bedroom now cos DH is snoring loudly.

@CaribbeanCupcake snap, also nearly 32 weeks! My toddler woke up crying at 3am so I let her come into bed with me and she went back to sleep but I feel so uncomfortable and sick and can’t sleep. Think baby is pressing on my stomach 🤢

Migraine and now the baby is awake 🫠

Littlest Primrose just woke for a feed, which I’m giving now. I’ve just had a tedious two weeks of pain with a badly sprained back, so my husband has been up and down in the night fetching the bottles. I am now going to do that for a couple of weeks to let him rest - usually we’d alternate one night each.

I can hear the man over the road getting home from a night shift, someone jogging up and down, and the Milk and More man has just been past.

Had terribly disrupted sleep with covid then anxiety for about three weeks, waking repeatedly in a panic. Today I felt suddenly calmer and yesterday evening we had a power cut and I've just been woken by the surge of lights coming back on 😂

Awake, stressing about work. This is a nighty occurrence. My mind is racing, I have a rising sense of panic and won’t sleep now. Up in 2 hours and in total dread.

No idea,bloody overthinking again and I have to be up in a few hours and I've got a really busy day and a dentist appointment ahead of me and I'll be shattered when the alarm goes off.

I went to be at 910.
Fell asleep at 11ish

Woke up at 4 after really bad dreams. DH is away (hence bed at 9) so I'm about to put some guided sleep meditation on Alexa to go back to sleep
