"It's 3am...3am...eternal, oh ohho , oh hoho!"..... no? Just me then is it?... 3am eternal by Klf and Tammy Wynette... from 1989 ...
Sorry first thing that came to mind when I looked at clock before beginning this post was that song. Point is what is it about 3 in the morning that seems to see hippies awake? Must be pain killers wearing off or something, promise I haven' just got in from a club... I'm 46 for heaven's sake:D! ... anyway "mornin' !" To all of you lucky people awake at this time. I'm 5 weeks post op Monday, any one know when one might expect a good night's sleep again?..... anyone?:'(.
Hi Jason, what seems to be keeping you awake, I have been taking a motion sickness med, in Canada called gravol when I can't sleep. I thought I would have more trouble since sleeping on my back was an issue
Hi Isabelle, not entirely sure why, but here in uk seems to be a 3am club of hippies, we all just keep waking up! Could be painkillers wearing off, or just habbit! Probably we don't use meds as much here as you guys over the pond. Just like to go on about our problems:D. I do have some pain in my thigh tho tonight and left my painkillers downstairs! Can't be arsed to stumble around house to get them, prob get eaten by our dogs if I startle them at this time:D
Hmmm, if you woke up to "Mu mu land, mu mu land ,ancient & justified , Mu mu land" , then maybe you had been partaking of something weird you just don't remember?
Really, 3 am is just about when I wake up every morning --- I think lots of us do. Sometimes I can just get a drink of water and get back to sleep but generally takes a pain medication and a good book before I can settle back down. I'm nine weeks post op and its a rare night when I don't awaken. Not sure when a good night sleep will be normal again. The best of luck to you in finding that elusive butterfly of sleep. Let us know if you find the magic means !
Morning to you, know how you feel as every night on the dot 02.45 wakey wakey self alarm clock....ugggggh. So always get up, brew on and reading time wide awake. But last night.....head down about 11pm....next minute it's 5am..... got through it. Now celebrating with two bacn butties...paper...hot brew....then feet up for Chinese F1. There is hope, keep the faith ad finger crossed fr you next few nights. Have good and chilled out SundaySunday
Mmmm ... bacon .... been awake since three and starving now, slept like a log from 11 till 3 tho , mind you prob nervous for youngest, he got league deciding clash at footy today least I'm fit enough to go watch now even if can't run the line!... yet.
Thanks a lot now got that song running around my head still in hospital and a dementia patient two doors down been calling for her husband all night, heartbreaking so I saw every hour with dozes in between.
I used to wake up at 2am every night for the first 5 weeks until I slept on my side when I slept through normally, I think its part of the recovery. I didn't have any naps during the day. I used to read and get back to sleep about 5am.
i,m definately in the 3am club and awake again at6.am.but with it being easter holidays its been luxury as ive been able to sleep in inthe mornings .dreading tomorrow when i need to be up to help launch my 12 yr old son off to high school.hubby goes back to work tomorrow(he works away all week) but my sister will be staying to help me for a week or so,but she will also be working during the day .big change tomorrow i will have to shift a bit more.i must admit i have been very spoilt since op so maybe i will get more tired and sleep through the night ....we,ll see ...
"All bound for mu mu land" is from Ancient and justified th original Tammy Wynette song. I believe all together now is The farm or the Beatles. The farm track I think from memory is a bit similar beat
