DS 18 months going through a huge sleep Regression and preference to me at the moment.
So tough to deal with by myself, I find myself getting so wound up by his crying, I end up getting cross and just bringing him in our bed, which I'm trying to avoid so failing hugely.
I know it's probably just a phase, but I don't want to instill bad habits.
while I'm trying hard to get through this phase.
DH is constantly making comments.
(DS goes down fine for him at bedtime, still wakes in the night, but with me he wakes as soon as I move him)
Comments like...
Lazy mummy hasn't taken you anywhere today....
And just keeps going on and on that I'm not doing enough physically with him, he does 50% of the time, I join them on my days off mostly (nurse).
I do lots indoors or in the garden with him, painting, playdough, drawing, made a car track with tape, got him a sandpit and slide.
Isn't the whole point of this separation anxiety that he's spending too much time with me, and actually he should be taking him for a walk (as that's all we're allowed to do) without me...
He had started nursery a few weeks prior to the closures, think that would have reslly helped him but as DH isn't working at the moment, Id rather DS stayed home.
DH has been having him Monday to weds 8-6.30... And by Tuesday evening he's absolutely reeling and had enough, goes on like DS is such hard work, he doesn't get a minute to himself, and pretty much as soon as I get in takes himself out in the car for a run.
No point to my post, just ranting really.
Just think he's a bit unfair to label me lazy, and make out I'm a crap mum who never does anything with DS.
I think divorce rates will go up during this lock down!! Lol
