because I can't manage to deal with him tonight.
He's 2+4. EVERY NIGHT of his life he's screamed endlessly at bedtime. We tried going to him, lying down with him in the dark, cosleeping singing to him, letting him come downstairs, cuddling him, ignoring him, sitting holding his hand, seen GP and had various cchecks carried out to make sure he's not in some kind of pain...
but still he screams endlessly "MAMA,MAMA, MAMA, MAMA, MAMA...
Over and over again.
We finally get him off to sleep about an hour - two hours after putting him to bed (I say we its normally me as dp works away Monday to Thursday and someetimes longer).
He then wakes at 3am and it all happens again until about 4.30-5am.
Its affecting my mental health. I keep losing my temper, keep bursting into tears for no reason, I can't function properly at work and I'm facing a disciplinary for mistakes, I feel like everyone hates me and I wouldn't blame them
I've not had a full nights sleep since 3 months before he was born.
I can 't do it any more. I just can't do it....
AIBU to sleep in teh spare room with a pillow over my head and let him scream?
You'll all flame me I know you'll flame me and I deserve it.
He's still screaming I put him to bed at 8pm and I've already been in and given him 2 X10 minute cuddles
