CALLING ALL INSOMNIACS.........

[ei23mummy]

hello there!
im 26 weeks pregnant with my first baby and am having loadsa trouble sleeping at night!!(no trouble in the day-time though!!) obv. my body warning me of situations to come!!
iv got an inkling that it might not just be me whos suffering this silly prob. so i thought 'why not start a thread for those who cant sleep to come and chat on!!' ingenious idea i thought so here we go!!

Hello. Insomniacs unite!

The worst thing about being an insomniac (apart from not being able to sleep...) is being the last one on every thread at 3.30am.

LOL! Hello! I'm 25 weeks pg on Saturday! Second baby though - and my advice to you would be sleep while you can Hard though, esp with heartburn and a wriggly bump!

YAY i thought i was the only one sitting here red-eyed and bored!!

HM are you due january then?? (duh to me as thats prob obv.!!)

myturn, lol iv usually given up and gone to lie in bed by then!! my neighbour doesnt help tho as hes just bought himself a nice shiny new set of drums!! he enjoys the midnight beat apparrantly!!grrrrr i wouldnt mind but hes crap at it aswell!!

Sure there's a law out there somewhere about that! Twat.

Yep, due on 14th January. Had a midwife appointment today to talk about a homebirth - just talking to DH about where the birthing pool will go

Not preggie, but an insomniac, so can I join in? I was 6 months pregnant this time last year, so I fully sympathise with you all. However, unfortunately, my insomnia has not gone away! (Sorry!)

wow id love to have the guts to have a homebirth!! im a bit scared of pain tho and also i would prob fret about the cat seeing my ladybits!!

iv found a great way to wile away the minutes!! online sudoku!! only the super-easy ones tho otherwise im f#@*%d!!

What is sudoki??

Or sudoku even???

I'm addicted to Su-Doku.

I wanted a homebirth (it all went out of the window in the end, as I was induced) but I was worried about the neighbours hearing me cussing at 4am. However, I wish I had had one, as our old neighbour used to drill at midnight Well, he did until I went round there one (at 8 months pg in my scary maternity nightie) and told him to stop, or I'd stick the drill up his effing backside. He took the sensible option and put the drill down, and stepped away from the crazy hormanal lady with mad bed-hair.

I desperately wanted a home birth. But ended up being over 2 wks late for all of them, induced each time, post-partum haemorrhages for each and emergency section for the 4th. So not much chance of a home birth for any really. My sister was born at home, many many years ago.

v. funny image in my head of crazed-looking prg woman with a drill in her hand!!lol i might even try this with my friendly neighbourhood drummer!! hes also a girlfriend beater btw as we had to call the police the other week as he was trying to kill his g/f by swinging her round their flat!! what a total arsehole- pardon the french!!

iv also discovered internet hangthealien (like hangman but with an alien!!)

Please tell me what sudoku is!!!

it the number game thats usually in the newspaper where youv gotta get numbers 1-9 in all the lines and squares without repeating them!! type in sudoku into google and go on one of the links for the free games! its sooooo addictive!

OMG ei23m!!! What a weirdo! Our noisy neighbours moved out, thank goodness. That's awful though. I used to live upstairs from some drug dealers, and was once woken up by the police doing a dawn raid on their flat. Mind you, that flat was sandwiched in between a brothel (nice garden) and a Halal butchers (who had an on site abattoire and used to throw chicken feet over the fence) so it wasn't in the nicest area. There was also a colnic irrigation clinic 3 door up, so all eventualities were covered. Drugs, sex, food and poo.

Su-Doku explained!!!

Oh no, do I really NEED any more addictions? Have just got hooked on one of my mobile phone games. The kids have kicked my backside at it - I am rubbish but have to finish the flipping thing. Will google, but if I become addicted I know who I will be blaming!

Ooooh thanks! Had too many wines to do it just now, but have added it to favourites and will have a go tomorrow. Will let you know how I get on. I LOVE logic problems, so think I will like this.

sounds like you lived round the corner from my mum!! her areas like that!! there is like a 24hour police helicopter round by where she lives!! its horrible!! her next door neighbour has got o.c.d aswell so all he does is open and close his doors and windows all the time and his car door!! v.noisy so shes prob awake now aswell!!

iv given up on the sudoku right now as my brain is starting to ache!! i think maybe an iq test for me tomorrow- i think mine has gotten down to about a 20 or somethin as the bub is seeping all my knowledge away- aswell as my memory!! maybe thats whats wrong- my body has forgotten how to sleep!!
