5 am wake ups...Again.

[Mrsjellybum]

Dd2 (4) is waking up at 5am again. She does this on occasions and then will revert back to her usual 6:30.

I'm knackered this time though. Hubbys snoring is reaching new realms of ridiculousness plus I think I've got used to the 'lie ins'.

Annoying I'm sitting here and can here DH snoring. He's that fucking loud. Seriously. He definitely going to the docs to get his bloody nose sorted and soon before I punch him in the face break his nose and make it a whole lot worse (joking obvs)

Oh feel your pain!
I've been googling ideas to stop early waking desperately.
My 16 month old wakes at 5am every single day... she shares a room with her 4 year old sister so there for disturbing her.
She doesn't go to bed early! She wakes up crying for clearly still tired!
Aghhhh

Another one here, he's up at 4.50 most mornings at the moment (18 months old.) I'm thinking it's teeth but who knows! He's normally been an early riser but he teased us with 6am wake ups for a few weeks before dropping back to this! Ahhh! And yes it's making him tired and grumpy during the day, so frustrating. When I hear friends without children complain about getting up at 7am I feel violent. Gah!

Can't help with the snoring, sorry, I think I'd send him to the sofa for now! Sitting here with CBeebies on, again! It doesn't even start until 6!!

DS4 is also a 5am riser. Occasionally he will sleep past 6 but maybe once or twice a month if he's had a very busy day.

The only saving grace is he gets up for the toilet, then turns his lamp on in his room and reads until I go and fetch him to go downstairs, he doesn't actual disturb me. I still hear him wake up though! 😴

Eurgh it's horrid.

We bought a grow clock which worked wonders for dd1. I used to sit with her at 4:30 showing her that the sun wasn't up. Then when the sun came up at 5 I'd say look the suns up we can get up then I slowly moved the sun up time forth we and further forward until 6:30. It worked wonders.

iT DID NOT WORK FOR DD2

Yes..we've suddenly returned to 5am wake ups..at nearly 3years i stupidly thought we were over this....

Is there any way you can kick dh out of bed and put dd in with you when she wakes? I did this this morning with ds, rubbed his back for a while and he’s gone back to sleep. Not saying it happens ever time though!

Re: the snoring. Firstly, I feel your pain and secondly...do you have a spare room? If it's that bad then make him go in there. At least you'll have had unbroken sleep until she wakes. If not, try nose strips for him and wax ear plugs for you.

Dd1 is my favourite... dd2 has been bouncing on my head for the last half hour.
I refuse to get her out of her cot till 6am.

Feel your pain .'re snoring Dr won't do anything, I've had hubby going to them for years .he's horrific , didn't know he snored when dating as I was a heavy sleeper then and had no small people stealing my sleep . I've my 3 yr old in bed with me as refusing to get up at 515 . Grow clock used to work but this last month , the 3 yr old has been shocking

Record your dh to shame him. My dh is a snorer and I did this. The doctor did fuck all but DH did buy a nasal spray which worked wonders. (I exaggerate- they did refer to a sleep clinic who did fuck all) But he’s stopped buying it and he back to snoring again.

My 6 year old has started waking early again. It’s the cold I think. She crawls in with us and goes back to sleep.

We don't have a spare room so unable to throw him out.
Little one normally pops into our bed first thing and usually manage to get her off to sleep but she won't.
Hubby got up with her yesterday morning so it was my turn today.

I'm feeling a bit more human for some coffee and busy at work (apart from a quick MN peak)
Lol

Definitely get his snoring sorted! It could really badly affect his health. My DH used to snore until I'd had enough of kicking him onto the sofa. I think snoring makes you more at risk of stroke/heart disease? That's what our dr said.

Got DH this Snoreeze throat spray and it worked miracles. Agree with @Believeitornot that it works - I told my SIL about it and she bought my brother the nasal spray bc he was mouthbreathing and snoring.

Find out what's causing his snoring (whether it's throat or nasal snoring) then buy the product that will fix it I promise you'll be back to feeling human again soon!!
