To ask why are you awake still

I've been up since 3am yesterday so almost 24h. I'm absolutely knackered.

3x DC who are all poorly. I'm stuck between 2 DC and keep having to settle the other one every hour.

Meanwhile my DH is in our guest bedroom snoring away as he has a very important meeting in the morning. Funny how these important meetings only seem to pop up when the children don't sleep 😂

Why are you awake? Please make me feel like I'm not alone. All of my neighbours houses look dark like they're soundly asleep 😭

My dd is 2.5 and rarely sleeps through the night. My DH came in to settle her tonight and she lost the plot and was crying and coughing so much that she got sick. Im so done. My sleep is all over the place. I average between 3 and 6 hours a night for the last 2.5 years 😭

Sun has now risen and I am back to the office full time tomorrow so will need to slap on layers of makeup to be presentable.

Sleep dust to all. Crossing fingers for another hour before I have to get up now that she seems to have dozed off but I find it difficult to go back once I'm awake. Dh is already snoring

It’s so hard with sleep and little children, sympathy to all! I’m awake because my child is having a horrible time at school with being bullied and it’s heartbreaking. She’s only 7. My heads going over and over trying to figure what the best way is to handle it when all I want to do is cry for her 😓

My almost 11 month old woke up for a bottle. I am not sure why she still wakes at night for a feed, everyone else's FF babies seem to sleep through from about 6 weeks old she's gone back to lovely sleep but stupidly I looked at my phone and now I'm doom scrolling. I really must try to get back to sleep - I'll be woken up by her shouting 'ba boo!' (Peekaboo) repeatedly like a little alarm clock at 6.50am

Not mine. She's ff and 9m old. Never slept through and still has 2 bottles at night 🤪

@JoanThursday I feel some of your pain. I woke at 2.05 due to a chronic skin condition and my poor volatile skin has been on fire ever since. Now listening to the birds and thinking of all that I need to do tomorrow and how much harder it will be without sleep…

Poor you! Hope today isn't too much of a struggle. I saw 4.45am and must have dozed off. Woke up with a crick in the neck at 6am. Husband is dancing round the kitchen full of beans.

Knobhead.

Hope you all managed to get some sleep in the end! ❤️
I ended up sleeping next to my DD's cot for 30 mins then back to the other 2 🥲. I feel sick I'm so tired.

DH is complaining about the bed in the spare room not being comfy and how hot it was.
He's in the dog house 😂 (doesn't know it yet)
