To ask how I can reset my sleeping pattern now!

I have an autoimmune disease and the night before I was awake all night very unwell and in pain. I went to the doctors first thing and my observations weren’t good and he said I needed to go to the hospital. I was in the hospital all day and got sent home in the evening (being contacted on Monday r.e investigations) and was then awake until 1am still unwell. I hadn’t slept for 42 hours. I have a baby and my partner stayed home today to look after him so I could sleep - but I didn’t wake up until 4pm! I was asleep for 15 hours! Obviously feeling guilty as hell and like a bad mum. But how do I reset my sleeping pattern now? There’s no way I’m going to be able to get an early night - do I just stay up all night again? Help :(

Oh also - as I’ve previously posted about it before, I have ulcerative colitis and I’m currently flaring and am on the toilet every hour so it’s all messed up as it is!

Can you take an antihistimine? I find Piriton particularly good for knocking me out!

Hope you're feeling better soon.
