To ask why you are awake?

[hellcarryingahandbag]

Hi all, I’m visiting my grandparents overnight, and I heard Gran coughing so I got up to see if she was OK, and she was asleep by the time I got in to the room she was sleeping in, and I’m now sitting at the kitchen table crocheting and Mumsnetting. What about you?

Sorry to hear that @stillfunny
How long have you known?

Up with 11 month old ds, he's woken at 3am for a week now. He's starting to settle but I will struggle to get back to sleep now. Very windy here, in loft room and can hear slates rattling in the wind.

@Stillfunny you shouldn’t have to live with that! Tell him to FOTTFSOFTFOSM!!

I’m a chronic insomniac. 😢

Insomnia. Hope you manage to fall asleep again.

Been up working, just finished night-shift, so time to make some dinner!

My 4mo woke at 2. Took an hour and a half to be able to put him down. He woke at 5 for his bottle. Now I need to make the transfer from my bed to his cot.

I would kill for an early night and a long lay in. Like 9pm through to 11am would be idea.of heaven.

Now listening to magic radio with my earphones in, on the loveseat, and drinking tea.

Left the fan heater on automatic cut off by mistake so at 3.00am when the temperature dropped it suddenly noisily went into action nearly giving me a heart attack! Had to get up to turn it off and am still not back to sleep yet.

Not quite bedtime yet for me.

I fell asleep on the sofa and woke up with a terrible crick in my neck now I'm trying to un crick it in bed.

Woke before 5.

Either a dream or child sleep talking.

Then needed toilet so got up.

Hear the wind and rain now.

Won’t get back to sleep.

Was feeding my 12 week old (how is he that old!) Normally I am half asleep when I do this and then he did a big 💩 it was so loud I was wide awake after that 😂😂😂

Woke up an hour ago due to late pregnancy insomnia and am so glad I did as I somehow managed to remember that the tooth fairy hadn't visited my eldest son yet. She has now!

Nightmare.

My 7 month woke wanting her bottle, so now I'm waiting for her to go back to sleep before I can. On the plus side she woke up at 5am today instead of her usual 4am, extra hour sleep for me so lucky 😂

@Verily1 can you not put earphones in and listen to music?

Whole other thread on this. But it has been a year now. And horrible thoughts keep me awake most nights.

Different time zone, but I stayed up late scarfing licorice all sorts, and now I feel sick. Dummy.

My D.C. woke me up at 4.30 and I can't go back to sleep 😔

DH woke me up, again, by crying out in a loud falsetto tone in his sleep.

His dreams are always scary enough for a shrill outburst but not so scary that they actually wake him.

🙄

My stepdad once ran his finger through the dust on top of my bookcase and made this face envy so now I scrub everything.. How rude, hand him a duster next time rather than waste your life pleasing a rude man.

I woke up at 5 and now wide awake.

Had to get up for a wee so now downstairs watching Anne with an E on Netflix

I’m a rubbish sleeper at the best of times but we went out last night and I had a few drinks and I always sleep really badly when I’ve been drinking

Woke about 4.30. Bad cough, awful headache and rocketing pulse. 95 at moment according to fitbit and that's resting.

So many of you awake for more noble reasons

Night shift #2 of 4 was last night. DS didn’t let me nap much during the day as he’s outgrowing his naps so I’m pooped! Dp is getting left to wrangle them so I can pass out in about 20 minutes when I get home lol
