Sleep Deprivation Chamber

My children don‘t need sleep. They just suck their energy straight from me 😩 Between the three of them it‘s rare I get more than an hour unbroken sleep at a time. How many Litten parents have been doing early morning reading with kids TV this morning? Send coffee ☕️ 😂

Caroline2 Arghh!!! I feel your pain. I remember that phase!! It nearly killed me! Mine are now 7 & 10 and sleep till 7 so fingers crossed yours will grow out of it soon! ❤️ 3y

Magpiegem @Caroline2 Thank you 😊. My oldest is 8 and is up at 4.30am most days... I don‘t think I‘ve had a full nights sleep since before he was born! Glad to hear things are easier for you now- I live in hope! Xx (edited) 3y

Tattooedteacher I feel for you. I only started sleeping recently (16 and 21) bc It switches to worry as they get older. 3y

Elizabeth2 Oh, dear, I‘m so sorry. Trust me when I say that this too shall pass. It may take several years, but it will get better. Mine are all older now (21, 18, 15 & 14) and if given the chance, would sleep until noon. Trust me also when I say that you will miss those morning snuggles, and how wholly dependent they are on you now. You are never so loved by and important to your kids as when they are little like that and just want to be with you always. ❤️ 3y

Magpiegem @Tattooedteacher that‘s what my mum says... she still has sleepless nights about my 50+ year old brothers. Glad to hear you are finally getting sleep! Xx 3y

Magpiegem @Elizabeth2 😊 thank you. I do love their snuggles. I will try to remind myself that in the middle of the night xxx 3y

Elizabeth2 @Magpiegem the days are really long, but the years are so very short. It will be a blink and you‘ll have a kids who are adults. ❤️ 3y

Currently laying half concious in bed, holding on to Robbie's sleep bag so he doesn't fall off the bed during his wanderings. The house alarm went off at half 6. My home currently feels like the tagged book. Going to pick up my kindle and push on with The Goblins of Bellwater as I can hold that one handed 😂😩 #ifIdontlaughillcry

CarolynM The joys of small children - I remember it all too well. Hang in there, it will get better.💐 6y

laurieluna @CarolynM thanks! I'm hoping 😂 we're all ill and toddler is toilet training atm. He keeps waking up wet in his nappy which I think upsets him. Trying to do calm and patient parenting at 4am is hard! Going to badger my partner into giving me some time on my own this weekend I think. X 6y

Bookwormjillk Hang in there! 6y

readinginthedark Those sleepbags are godsends!!! 6y

laurieluna @readinginthedark right?! There's no way ny 2 were keeping blankets on them! 🐙 6y

readinginthedark Yes, my son always wanted to be swaddled, but he moved around so much, and I couldn‘t handle straight swaddling in the middle of the night. These were amazingly helpful. 6y
