Tell me I'm not the only one who mentally chants this to themesleves sometimes.
Dd is four and has autism. I know it's not her fault and I know it her sensory difficulties etc. but she's only ever slept the grand total of four hours a night.
In bits, not one go.
Me and Dh have had to take shifts for the last three years. The consultant has already tried her on melanin etc, but it didn't work.
I know I didn't need to go into that level of detail but wanted to explain my situation because I feel terribly guilty.
I've never openly lost my temper with dd, and would never say some of the stuff I scream in my head but it can be so vicious it makes me feel like the worst Mum in the world.
Tonight I'm hot, tired. Dd is on her fifty billionth rendition of 'Too cold Mum. Too hot Mum.' and I am calling her all the names under the sun internally.
I just want to go downstairs for once, with Dh (his shift starts at 11)
