It doesn't get better once they get older. DD18 isn't back yet from the party I dropped her off for at 7.30pm. They went clubbing after the party. I am just dozing on the sofa waiting for her. I've a splitting headache and have had only a couple of hours sleep. Grrrrr.

peaceloveandbiscuits · 09/10/2016 04:21

You are good to wait up for her! When DS is 18 I plan on hoovering his bedroom floor at 7am.

The cat woke me up by knocking a book and two bottles of water off my bedside table. Thanks for that, cat. Oh, also by shouting. She'll be asleep again after she's finished stuffing her furry face.

I am here with a mug of tea, digestive biscuits, my electric blanket. Just read the entire Stunt Pineapple thread

Thank goodness for MN.

4.30 can fuck off too.

Just woke up with heart racing (still is) - been having funny dreams (possibly all the cheese I ate last night!).

Glad to find I'm not alone though.

Jinglebellsandv0dka · 09/10/2016 04:37

I hear you 🙌🏻😖

MetalMidget · 09/10/2016 04:38

I'm just about to put my eleven week old son back in his cot after a feed. If I don't reply again, you'll know I've been successful. If it's business as usual, expect to hear from me every 40 minutes or so. -_-

JanetStWalker · 09/10/2016 04:43

Insomnia can bugger off too!

Giggorata · 09/10/2016 04:46

Woke up for pee (should have gone before bed), stumbled into table, everything fell to the floor, trod on water glass, which shattered underfoot. Am now picking glass shards out of sole of foot & trying not to bleed over rug.....Angry
DH oblivious. I wonder if he'd wake up if I hoovered it all up now....

ChopsticksandChilliCrab · 09/10/2016 04:49

Oh no Gigg- that really is awful. Hope your foot is ok in the morning.

CuppaTeaAndAJammieDodger · 09/10/2016 04:50

Ouch Giggorata! Poor you.

I stepped on a tiny pine needle size piece of glass the other day, hurt like hell.

Theladyloriana · 09/10/2016 04:51

Ooo gig that's harsh hope foot OK

And 4.51 can fuck off too

Bastard insomnia

OutDamnedWind · 09/10/2016 04:54

Sat in the bathroom shivering and feeling queasy as fuck, but nothing happening either end yet, except some horribly ominous stomach gurgling Sad I can't be ill, I have to go to work.

The stomach churning woke me up. I've not known anything like this, except when I had food poisoning...

fldsmdfr · 09/10/2016 05:01

It's noon where I am, but I know the feeling. Though it's 3am for me. Why am I always desperate for a nap at 3pm and wide awake at 3am??

OutDamnedWind · 09/10/2016 05:19

It's started, just thrown up everywhere. Lots. Sad

Work are never going to believe me.

CuppaTeaAndAJammieDodger · 09/10/2016 05:24

Eugh OutDamnedWind - hopefully your system just needs to get rid of it and the nausea (etc.) doesn't last too long.

CreepingDogFart · 09/10/2016 05:24

Been awake now for an hou and a half. Angry

OutDamnedWind · 09/10/2016 05:26

Stomach feels a bit better already, but throat is absolutely burning with acid.

Shit shit shit. This is going to all look a bit too convenient work wise, they knew I didn't want to work today.

MazeMap · 09/10/2016 05:28

Can I join you? Baby's waking up screaming every 20mins. He's been doing it since 1am Sad
Think his molars are coming through. Tried calpol, milk, cuddles, nothing works.

RebootYourEngine · 09/10/2016 05:29

I am up ready to leave for work. Wish i was back in my bed. Ds woke me late last night and it took a while to get back to sleep. Just hope work isnt busy. Hahahahaha like thats ever going to happen Sad

Mol1628 · 09/10/2016 05:34

My ridiculously early waking son woke in the middle of the night being sick. Just a one off because of his cough. I thought Oh well. Because he's been up in the night he should lie in a bit. Will he fuck. 5am instead of his usual 5:30.

Marlene1970s · 09/10/2016 05:35

Thinking of moving to colchester.I'm a new single parent with a 5 year old son. But nervous about whether colchester is multi cultural. Do not want my son to be "the only black child in the class". Any ideas on multi cultural areas?
