This heat is slowly killing me off.... But I don't want it to end either, would just be nice to have a good night sleep 😴😴😴

Me! I'm two days past my due date with baby number 3. There is no way to get comfortable and the heat is driving me insane.

Aintnothingbutaheartache · 24/07/2018 01:35

timshort you ok? That sounds a bit shitty

80sMum · 24/07/2018 01:35

Me. I rarely go to bed before 2.00am these days.

Aintnothingbutaheartache · 24/07/2018 01:38

What do you do 80sMum to amuse yourself?

mollymcguire · 24/07/2018 01:43

Me! Getting ready for a4 hour journey to Holyhead to go home for a few days! Waking Dh and dc soon! Cannot wait to see the lovely shores of Dublin in the morning!

Smurf123 · 24/07/2018 01:45

Me because my 20 week old has woken up for a feed because it is so warm so he now wants a drink 4 or so times a night.. Can't really blame him though it is roasting!

hattiebugatti · 24/07/2018 01:46

Yep, wide awake here at (almost) 2am ...

Been looking at the moon, and the stars, and watching netflix programmes, and still don't feel I can go to bed. Hubby went 4 hours ago. I don't know how I am going to get up tomorrow. I need to be up at 8am. Confused

Booie09 · 24/07/2018 01:47

Me...my type 1 diabetic daughter has just thrown up everywhere and were going abroad tomorrow!!

Thishatisnotmine · 24/07/2018 01:53

I fell asleep about 10pm. Dd2 woke up at midnight. Dd2 is still awake... She's hot but so am I and with teething she has chomped a hole in my nipple. I am not in a happy mood right now.

MissConductUS · 24/07/2018 01:55

I'm a yank so it's earlier here but I'm off to be soon anyway. It's been not here too but we have central air conditioning.

Kismett · 24/07/2018 01:56

I miss American air conditioning so much.

GiraffeCat · 24/07/2018 02:12

Just got home from holiday and there's a fly infestation in my kitchen/house Sad

Aintnothingbutaheartache · 24/07/2018 02:28

Flies?! Oh shitgiraffe that sounds lovely 😬

AndBabyMakes3 · 24/07/2018 02:41

Still awake here too. @ReasonableLlama huge congrats. Enjoy the newborn squisyness and special cuddles and that wonderful newborn smell (where have the past 5 months gone since mine was a newborn?!?!) Far too hot to sleep, 24° and baby keeps moaning and shuffling around in cot. First night alone with baby too as DH is at the airport for an early morning flight so just want to keep checking on her...stupid paranoia...

penguingirl · 24/07/2018 02:48

Yep. In pain and have a mild addiction to aibu. OH has been asleep for 4 hours. Heat is radiating off him and I feel like I'm in a sauna. Perhaps I should chuck some water over him to get a sizzle.

WowLookAtYou · 24/07/2018 02:52

I'm awake because some guys in hoodies just tried to break into my car (and a few others in the road). Bastards.

Lavenderbathbomb · 24/07/2018 02:59

Me. DH is travelling to a family wedding 5000 miles away and I’m watching his flight on flight radar, I won’t sleep till he’s there safely.

Aintnothingbutaheartache · 24/07/2018 03:06

lavendar that will take hours!

makingmyway10 · 24/07/2018 03:07

Still up here. I lost my wonderful dog on Friday and have not been able to sleep since. Just stay up all night watching TV and crying. It's hell. Sad

ChestOfFields · 24/07/2018 03:13

So sorry to hear that @makingmyway10 Flowers

Aintnothingbutaheartache · 24/07/2018 03:14

So sorry makingmyway10
Pets are very special, often I think people don’t realise that and treat the loss a little lightly. It hurts.
Thoughts with you

AndBabyMakes3 · 24/07/2018 03:15

@timshort hope all is ok

@makingmyway10 so sorry to hear about your DDog Flowers

@WowLookAtYou that is terrible; they must be locals. Hope they are caught.

SeaToSki · 24/07/2018 03:17

Im on the other side of the world, so its dinner time here. Sending you all lots of cooling thoughts. If you make a towel really damp and drape it over you (and if you have a fan, aim that at the towel) it really helps with getting to sleep on hot nights. Cant help with the vomiting, thirsty babies and sad thoughts though. Hope you can see the stars and take a moment to be peaceful.

LorelaiVictoriaGilmore · 24/07/2018 03:17

@makingmyway10 Thanks

I haven't been to sleep yet. Worrying myself crazy over back to work arrangements for September and beating myself up for putting more pressure on the situation by being bad with money. Sad

WowLookAtYou · 24/07/2018 03:18

Hats off to the police, they've caught and arrested two people!
