To ask how you cope on 'bad days'?

[Dishwashersaurous]

Sleep deprived and got an evil virus so feel really ill.

Sahm to baby and toddler. And have no patience or tolerance today. So advice for getting to bedtime.

No one who can help out.

Baby has already had nap and won't watch tv

It may not help if you feel ill but I love getting out for a walk with the buggy. It's quite liberating and gets you away from those four walls. I only have one child though. Could you take them out for a drive somewhere (if you drive, I don't, which is why I love walking!).

Hope you feel better soon.

Can't help much, but fresh air might help you feel a bit better and little one nod off again.
Hope you feel better soon

Similar day here - 1 toddler and 1 pew-schooler. I find getting out helps. Good luck!

Combination of redbull and nurofen plus (the good stuff with the codeine)

On really bad days I load them up in the car and go for a drive. Only really works if they are ok in the car and you live somewhere not too trafficky.

It will get better OP.

Well toddler has fallen asleep on the sofa, which never does, so he must be poorly too.

So pushing baby in buggy in the hallway.

Bedtime for everyone at seven tonight and tomorrow is another day

Get out and about.

TV as you're trying.

Go easy on yourself.

And get partner or good friend to do/plan something nice for you in evening or weekend. Failing that a bath in the evening.... with whiskey.

CBeebies is your friend. Poor you, hope you feel better soon.

Similar day here too, very sleep deprived, IBS flair up, poorly baby. Topped off by epic 30 minute screaming tantrum in the supermarket, by toddler who has now napped all of 20 minutes and woken up no happier

Toddler watching CBeebies and I'm going to try to not bang my head against the wall. Might have to take them for a walk in a bit, but seeing as toddler refuses pushchair then gets too tired to walk it might be hard work.

I like the bath with whiskey suggestion

My 16 week old slept a grand total of 1.45 hours last night. I'm getting through today with cookies. She is teething and miserable. I'm very tearful.
