Anyone else stay up way too late at night and regret it in the morning? 😅

I’ve always been a night owl but especially now since it’s my only chance to have some me time! Like right now it’s after midnight and I should sleep but here I am awake… 🤦🏻‍♀️

Actually I stay up tell almost 12am every night . When my son goes to bed . And regret in the morning cause I help him with his school work I'm his learning coach . . I have to get him and my self on the same schedule for going to bed that way we can wake up at 8am cause he has online class at 9am and 2 more at 11 am but then we do his work that was assigned to him before 11am .

omg it’s me every night since my son turned 1 and he’s being so clingy to me. even if i sit or relax he would jump on me and keeps whining until i go back to give him a company . he just wants me around him all the time. and when he is sleeping that is the only time i chill 😅 i even grab my late night snacks and use my phone until my eyes are literally heavy

Every single morning I promise I'll go to bed early and I rearly do 🤣

This is me 😭
Regretting it this morning, like I do every morning fml 😅

Always! The cycle never ends!

I stayed up til after midnight and woke up at 5:30. It’s my only me time I get. I never regret staying up. I’m a SAHM and my son sleeps til 9/9:30 now that it’s winter

Oh I love sleeping lol it’s bad enough having to be up a few times overnight then at 6. At 10.30pm latest see you later. I feel stressed if I see the clock hit 11 and I’m still not in bed

Every single night 😅 can’t sleep still about 3 but baby sleeps at 8 at night 😂

Yes! I have major issues right now with sleep. I’m staying up too late, then realizing I have to be up at 6 to get my kids to school and care for my infant, so then I opt to just drink caffeine and stay up all night and try and catch up on work and the house, because the anxiety about sleeping through my alarms prevents me from even attempting to rest at all, so I finally lay down after home dropping them off and caring for the baby, so at around 9:45am I’ll crash nap for get up at 12 and get ready to go pick them up from school and come home and login to work lol - then am fatigued all day, and do it again - I’m stuck in a nightmare

same, 3 is like my latest when I know I’ve rlly messed myself up for the next day lol

Anyone else up feeding their Bebe?

As above. Trying so hard to keep my eyes open

Oh my God, oh my God I hope this is not true!!!! I’m kind of scared

I’ve been throwing up and taking a shit all night!!! I just hope that it’s not what I think it is

Is this normal??

I’m 29 weeks pregnant and having really aching legs and they’re all lumpy and swollen. Above the knee and behind the knee . Should I be worried ? My legs have never looked like this up until a few days ago. ??

Anyone else experiencing this?

Gave birth (vagina) 5 days ago and yesterday morning and this morning getting lot of pain in my right bottom side and lower back

Induction experience

I just wanted to share my experience with being induced as I wasn’t sure what to expect and thought it may help others.

I opted for the foley balloon which was inserted at 8am Saturday morning, I had to stay in hospital due to hypertension and protein urine however usually you can just go home once this has been done. The insertion of the balloon was not painful, was slightly uncomfortable as there was slight pressure. I actually found having the cervix checked prior to be worse (again not painful at this point just uncomfortable) The balloon had little effect and after having it removed I was still only 1cm. Removal also was pain free and hardly even noticeable.

I then had my first dose of the gel and definitely noticed a difference, I started experiencing period like cramps almost immediately however they were light and manageable. After 6 hours I had another cervix check and although my cervix was soft it was still only 1cm and was only open at the front. I had another dose of the gel and felt an increase in pressure and more intense cramping where I now required pain relief (codeine). After another 6 hours I had another cervix check and I had now dilated to 2-3cm however was still quite difficult to get all the way through so a third gel was recommended which I agreed to.

Almost immediately I noticed the difference and was in considerable pain, I had paracetamol and codeine however the contractions had now become intense and a lot closer together (around 3 minutes apart). After a couple of hours I had my last cervix check and was 4cm and taken down to the Labour ward to have my waters broken and an epidural.

I had been in my room for approx 20minutes when my waters broke by themselves and I was now 10cm and actively pushing…. There was no time for the epidural and my beautiful girl arrived into the world within 2 minutes of pushing.

All in all I would say the cramps/contractions were manageable up until the third gel where it became pretty unbearable however it was for a very short time a gas and air helped take the edge off. The worst part about any of it was actually the later cervix checks where after stimulating the cervix my contractions were at their most painful.

If I had to be induced again I would skip the balloon and opt for the gels immediately as thy had a quicker effect and I would have been out a lot sooner if I had done this to begin with.

One more thing, I’ve never believed when people say “you forget the pain once they’re here” but I can honestly say this is true. It’s been 4 days and I would do it all again in a heartbeat.

It’s my birthday tomorrow.

Ok so I am going to be 35 years young. I can’t believe how much this life has thrown at me but it’s okay I’m a survivor. I am truly blessed to be alive. 🥳🧁🎂 The only downside is I won’t be celebrating my birthday because my man can’t take me out. So many emotions right now.
