I cant sleep and feel miserable!

[flopsybunny]

I only had 3or 4 hours sleep iin the hospital last night - was on a ward with 3 tractors ( snoring women) and I missed my OH - so slept really badly. No tonight, I didn't get to sleep until 1.30 because OH upset me by deciding to sleep on the sofa because he is too ill to walk to the bedroom. He has the incapacitating illness we will never understand - man flu. I think we call it a sniffly nose or a head cold! Anyway, that really upset me because I hate sleeping alone. And then I was rudely awoken by choking!! Horrible and scary! I felt like I couldn't breathe! Has this happened to anyone else? I can't get back to sleep now incase it happens again!

Aww hun, you're not like me then who would love a big bed to myself lol. Just imagine all the room! And nobody snoring in your ear!

When you were choking had you managed to get on your back at all? I stuck a pillow at the back of me to keep me on my side otherwise I'd end up choking.

Make sure you get some rest today, you need to catch up on some of the sleep you've missed out on.

I hate sleeping without my OH and considering when I moved out of my Parents I lived on my own for 7 years you'd think i'd love it! lol

I'm absolutley dreading having to stay in hospital overnight if baby is born at silly o clock!

Don't know about the choking though hun, hope you're alright x

Sorry to hear that you slept badly. I don't like sleeping without my OH either. Have you had acid because maybe that came up and made you choke? xx

This happened to me a good few weeks ago. About 3 nights in a row I woke up choking, its not nice. I think it was my acid reflux cos I suffer bad with it xx

No idea about the choking but try relish any bedtime you get where you don't have something or someone sharing your space - I've frequently had to sleep in my daughter's bed when she's not here, because I've needed the wriggle room!

I'm undecided if I miss my other half in the bed or not. As he works nights its usually just me and I like hogging the whole bed but at the same time I miss him and it’s lonely having no one to hug When he is back at the weekends though I wish he wasn't in the bed coz I only get half the space and can't sleep diagonal but I'm also glad he is there. It's a no win situation..

I'm not sure about the choking thing, I often wake up coz of the heartburn though, so it could be that if you suffer from it.

I think it must have been my reflux. There was a really horrible acid taste. Yuk! OH came back to bed in the early hours so that made me a bit happier. I will try the pillow behind my back - I don't want that to happen again!
