Morning all, anyone else up? Yesterday was my first day of ML and the insomnia has kicked in today Sad, at least I can nap in the day now.

Right, better go and catch up on the last thread and this one, I see I've missed a LOT of arrivals!

ComradeJing · 23/10/2012 04:33

Is anyone else just exhausted now? Horrible nights sleep, two hour nap at 9:30 with DD and it's 2;30 now and I STILL feel tired.

wellieboots · 23/10/2012 04:51

Hi comrade, I've been up since 4ish, trying to get an afternoon nap now but it doesn't seem to be happening, really need one though as were off to theatre tonight - probably our last child free night out in a long time!

This tiredness is hideous, and I don't have another one to run around after!

Take care

StuntNun · 23/10/2012 06:23

Comrade I'm the same, I've been lying in bed utterly exhausted during the day, feeling lethargic as if I'm terribly I'll only obviously not ill. It will get better after baby's born... won't it?

Stunt and wellie I actually found the first few weeks after DD came quite relaxing. She slept all the time (to the point that I was under strict orders to wake her for feeds as she was dropping weight) so I just lazed about, ate too much and breastfed. It was lovely.

it was only at 4 months that she stopped sleeping and I entered the most exhausting and worst 4 months of my life

georgee · 23/10/2012 06:45

Good luck blonder! All sounds very encouraging so far! x

ValiumQueen · 23/10/2012 06:49

pass apologies I went to bed. Pre op was ok apart from having to wait ages, bumping into a client, and not seeing the anaesthetist like I was told I would, so the talk about pain relief will need to happen on thursday morning. All ok though. Slightly concerned a teacher cannot distinguish colours....

ValiumQueen · 23/10/2012 06:52

Good luck blonder not long and you will have your baby and can put him or her in fluff!

Was awake from 2 until 4 with dreadful acid then dreadful wind. Glad only two more sleeps to endure.

kirrinIsland · 23/10/2012 07:18

Good luck today blonder

Dixiebell · 23/10/2012 07:20

Got to go have bloods tested for blood sugar this am. Annoyingly means fasting. Really want a cuppa and some cereal. Doc said my last level was only just over, and it was because it was done just after lunch. But have to have it done again anyway. Also have MW this afternoon. Supposed to be working from home today but reckon I'll spend half the day in doc's waiting room.

Iheartpasties · 23/10/2012 07:32

I'm in such a grump and I cant shift it. Argh! I feel like telling dh not to bother cmoing home from work as he will get his head bitten off! (for no reason). grump grum grump.

I hope all is well with Yellowwellies, how lovely that her sisiter has popped on to keep us updated, we would have been even more curious if she hadnt!

So we'll have a couple more babies by the end of the week, its very exciting. I love seeing the photos on facebook, they have all been adorable so far!

It's lovly to read GTbaby because she sounds very loved up with her LO, and thats exactly how it should be :) lovely!!

I had friends over today - for our usual get together. And my friend hung my washing out for me and then tidied up my kitchen, I wanted to sort of die with embaressment, but thank god for friends as it did take a load off my shoulders.

Poppet45 · 23/10/2012 07:41
