Anyone else lying awake?

For some reason I'm awake and have been for the last hour even though I'm so tired I feel as if I could sleep all day most days. Hoping this is just a blip and I'll sleep properly tomorrow. So frustrating though.

I at 5:15 able to eat tin of pineapple (nomm!) before going back to sleep for about an hour (when alarm went off
For dogs that was awful and they didn't fancy food anyway !) but I did go back to sleep after doing a spot of washing up at 0730 and awake at 0920, just had a bath and now feeling human again!! Now to catch up on pre-recorded Jeremy Kyle (don't judge me!) one more week to go! Hoping baby comes sooner rather than later, then at least it'll be I have a REASON to be awake! Hehe hope you all have a lovely "awake" day and get an opportunity for a nap should the day call for it... Smile

Awake again! I am not hungry, hot, cold, don't need a wee, etc. Why am I ducking awake?! Angry

I'm awake too. Insomnia is really kicking in. This seems to be the pattern now. I've already got up approximately 400 times for a wee as well Confused Only 7 weeks to go.

I'm awake too, feeling quite comfortable but struggling to regulate my temperature tonight - boiling with the duvet and freezing without it.

Going to go to the loo in a second, don't really need to but I'm awake so may as well!

Aww no one needs insomnia SadSadhope you guys managed to get back to sleep !!!

hazellnut56 · 19/02/2016 04:04

My turn again !! 04:00 yikes ! Have the sudden urge to clean the car hahaha crazy stuff! Like pp have said I'm not hungry (thirsty maybe but I'm only trying to take sips as so to avoid a further billion trips to the loo!)! There's no reason for me to be awake right now wahhhhh!!! Confused

I'm awake too, have been for a few hours despite feeling exhausted.

So bored of it now...

1frenchfoodie · 19/02/2016 04:21

Third night of being awake at 3am, very boring but at least yesterday was my last day at work (37+5) so I don't have to get up at 6am and communte 2h to work. Hoping end if work means I can wind down for a bit and get in a bit more sleep.

hazellnut56 · 19/02/2016 04:24

I've come downstairs to eat pineapple! (Still a favourite !) not great for heartburn mind owieeee! Gonna try and tuck down on sofa for an hour after just can't seem to switch off!
Frenchfoodie bet your glad of finishing work!
I'm 39+2 and this baby needs to come on out, maybe it's my impatience keeping me awake lol!

hazellnut56 · 19/02/2016 04:25

Arhhh "you're" not your...

LadybirdSpots · 19/02/2016 04:35

I'm awake too! 26+6, and all this week have been nodding off at about 11:30, then wide awake anywhere between 2 -4, usually for at least a couple of hours!
Thankfully off work this week as I work in a school, but 5yo DS doesn't understand that as it's the half term he can lie in.
I'm also covered in the PUPPS rash, so I think the itching from that has a lot to do with it! Only 15 more weeks to go ConfusedConfused
Hope everyone is managing to get a good nights sleep!

hazellnut56 · 19/02/2016 04:36

Oh bless you! Nothing worse than the itchies when you're already having trouble sleeping ! Hope you manage to get some rest today! X

MadrigalElectromotive · 19/02/2016 04:42

I'm awake too. Hope you're all not feeling too tired. I have come downstairs and I am sitting on the sofa stroking my cat. Wish I was asleep but never mind!

I'm 14+6 and I can't remember the last time I had a full nights sleep. At the minute I only get up for one wee a night but then I can't get back to sleep. Not helped by the snoring dog next to me right now. DH is away so I can't get him to rub my back which usually helps.
I'm so tired but just can't sleep. Whhyyyyy???!??

hazellnut56 · 21/02/2016 05:14

Good luck Hazellnut!

I'm sleeping in 2 hour shifts now, the baby isn't even here yet so I don't understand what's going on!
