Anyone else up at 5am?!

[holly47]

I love my toddler dearly but he is a b*dy pain!!! 4.50am this morning he was screaming the house down in his cot. There's no way he would have gone back to sleep so I brought him into our bed and he screamed and fought with me while I tried to wrestle him to lie down. Eventually I gave up as he was about to wake his sister up and brought him downstairs. He is now happy as anything, watching cbeebies on sky plus....monkey

Me, bfing a naughty 11 month old who likes to sleep on me, preferably with a boob in the mouth .... Sleep is for wimps. Oh yes (keels over).

Me

BF 10 week old who just slept through from 8 last night so is absolutely ravenous!!!

Been up since 4am with ten month old. He bf half hourly all night. Pil took him for a few hours yesterday to give me a rest, but he 'wasn't tired' at his usual nap times

Yep 10 Mth old ds is teething, 3 of tge buggers are /have broken through in 5 days

Yes me!!! Dd woke up at 5am..

She must have heard me yesterday saying how happy I am that she has been waking up around 7.30 am the past week.

Dd also woke at five but is now fast asleep next to me. I on the other hand.....

Ds. 5 a.m. But then that is sadly normal in our house these days! he is 4!

Ds up at 5:30

Oops pressed submit too soon. Meant to say this is normal for him and he wakes through the night too. He is 15 months now. No more ch

DD, 6 months, slept until 5:30 this a.m. She's often up at 4:30. Currently bfing, hoping she'll go back to sleep.

Oh god I can't even write a message properly! I was saying no more children for us I can't go through this a third time, dd also woke early though she slept through from around 8 months.

Oh and ds is bf too.

Dd presses the buttons on my iPhone while feeding, mn is littered with my half posts.

spotty same situation here now. Ds has done a big poo, had nappy changed, chewed the door stopper for a bit, drank more milk and happily went back to the land of nod.

I'm now awake, a wee bit grumpy and debating if I could sneak away to grab some cereal.

Dh is home early today at 3pm. I'm so pleased. Just another 9 hours to go. Yes please to coffee.

Well I have a 7.30 breakfast meeting do going to shower.

(keels over again)

Awake since 4am bf-ing 6 day old DD who apparently has hollow legs...can't imagine where else she's putting all this milk!

We're all up now, got to leave in half an hour

Just pulled an all nighter to finish some work before the client goes on holiday tonight.

No screaming DCs here, just fusspot cats who are confused by my being up before them.

5.18 as my daughter says she has fleas , she is now in bed with DH and I am up, if he gets up in the next ten minutes I can go to work early.

Oooh, relieved so many others are awake at such a ridiculous hour. My toddler's good mood has now passed and he is wailing and howling round my legs, totally overtired, just as we're about to all try and get ready for the day...sigh...can't believe it's not even 6.45am yet!

Been awake since 5 since yowling cats woke me - hopingit wasn't ours gettin hurt. Came down to check,then DS2 and DH were snoring away in our bed so I gave up on sleep!

I was just in denial (4.40 here)...

Dd woke at 0030am last night. She finally settled at 4am. I couldn't sleep though until 530 and thunder woke me at 6am. Then had to drive 200 miles today. Just about to try and get kids to bed now.

Exhausted.
